You can ask her if she wants to take the relationship to the next level and just she what she does next. I have seen this alot they usually have sex. If you have not already with her then you probably will.

You should start out small and slow, and then after time, expand it. Starting small depends on the both of you. It can be a casual wave, a quick conversation when you two pass, and a hug. Expanding it can be going out to dinner.

Just ask her! What is the worst thing she can do, say no. If she is your friend right now she won’t make fun of you. Call her once a day, and show her little things that you love her.

There’s no guaranteed way to make any relationship last; you just have to give it your best shot, make sure you’re a good boyfriend and then see what happens.
After you graduate anything could happen and you can’t control her opinions or actions. You just have to give her the best possible reasons to stay with you and hope she makes the right choice.

Communicate and be honest.
Being truthful can hurt, but in the end it really helps.
When both of you feel a higher level in the relationship would be comfortable, then you may go on. Don’t push, keep a nice healthy boundary and hopefully, You’ll prosper!!!

First of all, you should make sure to be yourself from the beginning. Sometimes people get so nervous when starting a relationship that they hide pieces of their “true self” and then it comes out years later and the other person might run for the hills!! Start the relationship with 100% trust. If they haven’t given you a reason not to trust them, start out with 100% trust. Put your all into the relationship, balance the romantic moments with the fun moments. And be honest, if something’s not working, communicate and fix the problem before it becomes a huge blowout. Also, make sure you validate that person as someone who’s important in your life, and don’t only say it, show it! That should work!

Be honest, encouraging, loving, respectful to the others needs, respectful to the others previous life ( as in before they met you.) It’s best to just come out and tell her anything that you don’t want her to find out information different source such as:
Cheating on an ex-girlfriend
being biosexual at one point in time (Not that I’m saying you are)
Etc.

Talk _ Communication Is a big part in the relationship and wont move forward without it
Honesty_ Relationship wont work without
Commitment_ Love & faithfulness
Support _ You always need a shoulder to lean on when times are hard in life
Love_ relationship is truly something
Best thing would be to sit and talk to her – Tell her how much you appreciate her – What you would like out of this relationship and how you both feel
God bless x

First off, you should start out with building a friendship together. Communication is HUGE! Be open and honest with each other about everything. Your likes, your dislikes, what makes you upset, angry, sad, etc. Don’t be afraid to share your feelings together.
Secondly, relax and have fun. Enjoy spending time together. Laugh, talk, play, be silly, be yourself! Go out on dates to the movies, to dinner. Just enjoy each other and your times together. You can’t really start something, planning on going for the long run, because if something happens, you’ll just be that much more hurt in the end. Also, to put that kind of pressure on a relationship will just wear it and you down. If you go into it being yourself and just enjoying each other and being open and honest, everything else should (if it’s meant to be) fall in place. To set high expectations from the beginning is merely setting yourself up for failure because if something doesn’t go just as you plan, it’s gonna be harder on you and complicate things.
