God fucking damnit. I've waited outside for 20 minutes [snip] Oh shit

Y'know, this is the kind of stuff that can creep people out, for pretty good reasons. I think you need to stop thinking about "asking this girl out" on a "date", and focus on making a good impression on her. What does this girl even know about you? Are you on friendly and trusting terms with each other? (not necessarily 'friends', but comfortable enough that you could see the two of you hanging out without it being a big deal). You should start from these basics, and if you have these nailed down there's no reason for the issue of "asking her out" to even come up as a huge problem.
