Whats an inconspicuoous way to start hanging out with a girl more, without asking her out?

my primary form of contact with a girl i like has been eliminated. so now i want to hang out with her still, but dont want it to seem like im interested in her, cause im not sure what i want yet you know? whats a good way to hang out with her without seemng like im trying to hard...i live in a TINY town, 900 people. so it should be fairly easy..?

Find out where she works out and join her gym

If you are interested enough to pursue spending time with her, but not sure what you want yet, don't play games! Ask her out...there's risk involved, yes, but it's worth the risk...this is what dating is all about. If you need to spend more time with her, ask her to do something with a group of people (but be clear that you invited her/she is "with you" on the outing), or something casual with just the two of you, and see where it goes. Dating is the process by which you find out about someone, so there is no harm in trying, and if it doesn't work out, it should not be an issue (just keep it very casual until you are sure!!) but if you just "hang out" for a while, and don't show your real interest, she may come to see you as someone who plays games romantically, and that will screw up a future chance at a relationship, should you decide you want one. Get and read the book "He's Just Not That Into You" ... it addresses many of the games guys play with women, and gives some straight forward feedback (to women, but guys could benefit from reading this) about games guys play. Good luck!

Just stalk her and show up where ever she is , should be easy in a tiny town...
