Need CRUSH ADVICE PLZ 10 points best answer?

I'm a junior in high school and i like a girl in one of my classes. Over the last few months we have been talking more in class. I've gotten to know her better and i feel like we made a connection. i was gonna tell her how i feel about her, but i found out she was dating someone else. I found out one day when in the halls before first class i saw her holding hands with a guy, a i asked a friend of mine if they were dating and she said they were. My spirit just shattered at that moment.Shes a junior too and the guy shes dating is a senior. I really want to date her and get to know her better. I truely care about her. I know i shouldn't but into her relationship and i wont.





Anyways:





Do you think they will break up because he is going to college next year, even though his college is close by?





Would it be a good idea to try to get closer to her and get to know her better?Need CRUSH ADVICE PLZ 10 points best answer?
If i was you, i would tell her you liked her. But also say, that you respect she's dating someone else and that your not asking for her to leave him for you. But tell her if she wanted to be with you, you are there. Thats how i got to the girl i love, so give it a try.:)
