Should I ask this girl out?

I'm 17, and looks wise I'd say I was about a 5/10.

So, there's a girl who's also about a 5/10, and she's a nice person although we haven't got much in common. I know if I ask her out she'll say yes, but I'm not sure if I should.

The thing is I've got high standards (which I know I shouldn't) and cant help but think maybe I could do better looks wise and personality wise (someone more like me).

I also plan to move away next year to go to uni so I don't fancy a serious relationship, just some fun, which I'm not sure I'd get with her (I don't mean to sound like a pig, but its the truth). So do you think I should ask her out or wait and try my luck with someone else?

Update:

@Luke: FU. I am attracted to her, I'm just not sure if I'm attracted enough. I don't want to sleep and leave, I just don't want to drag someone into a serious relationship then leave to go to uni.

And I don't mean to outweigh the negatives, in my opinion its a choice which is 50/50.

    I think she really deserves better than someone like you. You're not really attracted to her, and you just want to sleep with her and leave. Do you even care how much you could hurt her?

    There's nothing wrong with asking her out or even going out a few times. Dating doesn't mean serious relationship. If go out once and it's a bust then move on....if it's a fun evening then enjoy a few more dates... doesn't mean you have to be committed to each other exclusively. Especially at your age.

    i don't mean any offence but I don't think you should go out with her if the positives don't outweigh the negatives. I think you should really wait for someone that you consider more your type, otherwise I don't think the relationship is likely to last.

    Don't ask her out. Ask her in.
