There's this Girl I like and I'm confused about her. I'm confused because I don't know what to do about the situation.?

She was going out with my Friends, they're not going out now. I seen him a couple times a week. He's always telling me, this girl I like is single. The three of us have aspergers. I don't know why my Friend keeps telling me. He's not going out with her and that She's single. They were going out last week.

The three of us know each other from College. However She's known my Friend for a few years. I've only known her for four months. We did the same course together and She never used to talk to me anyway.

The three of us have recently re met, because were all going to this Company that does recreational stuff such as going to the Park, Gardening, Photography, Games, Cooking etc.

When I do stuff with the girl I like such as playing games. I always win and then She always says I hate you. The other week She said She was going to hit me and then She said I'm an idiot, this again happened when we was playing skittles and I won.

I've asked her why She says She hates me and why She called me an idiot. She said she was joking. about because I always look at her and She's trying to interact with me.

The other day I was at the Park these two and a few other Friends of ours and we were playing rounders. I go up to her and ask her how things are going, are you getting on OK with your new place and then She starts hitting me on the shoulder. However it was only gentle hits.

We was all playing rounders last month and stuff happened. I was batting and She was bowling. I hit the ball along way and as I was running. She tripped me up and We ended up on top of each other. She was giggling quite a lot when this happened.

When I go near her, She will either start giggling, come out with jokes, sometimes She'll start rapping. She's even sung love songs. When I've been near her. The other thing is, when I'm talking to other people and stuff. She will make jokes about that. All She jokes about my facial expression. When We've gone on day trips with the company and traveled in separate vehicles. I've noticed her looking at me. When I've been sitting in the other vehicle

Lastly when We was playing rounders at the Park the other day, after she was hitting me on the shoulder. She spanked me more than a few times with the bat and with her hand. Also she tried to trip me up again. We had a picnic, when we went to the Park and me and her were sat on different tables. All She did was sit and stare at me, after having lunch.

My confusion is this. I'm close Friends with her ex. I don't know why He's telling me, his ex is single. When I've been out with the both of them together. They don't talk to each other at all, most of the time. I don't know If he would be OK with it, If I asked her out. Both of them have said their not together. However I don't know If there's still some history. I'm closer Friends to the lad, than the woman. I don't want to hurt our Friendship.

I'm very interested in the girl and If the way She's acting continues. I will have to do something about it. I know She's interested too. Because when She plays about with me, I play back with her and when I play with her, She does it back.

I'm not sure If this is just somebody I like a lot or If It's a crush. I guess it's in between having a crush and love. I love hanging out with her. I think about her a lot. She's on my mind most of the time etc. I enjoy her company. I care about her well being and stuff like that.

I don't have her phone number, we don't text. We only talk when we hang out in the Group. I was going out to ask her out, before I found out my friend got in first. I don't know what to say to her, any suggestions

I figured because she slapped my *** several times the other day and because She's quite playful, that she does fancies me, it's the other gestures such as joking, sarcasm, starring at me, that makes me think she fancies me. She knows I have feelings towards her. Because I told I don't want to get too deep into being Friends, because I don't want to be friend zoned and because I have feelings towards her.

I've also told her that If my feelings get too strong, it would only mess up the Friendship, because we would have to change it to a relationship. She knows I haven't decided If I want a relationship or If like being Friends with her. Because I haven't told her. I think I want a relationship with her, which means We cannot be Friends. That's why this is confusing. I can't deal with it.
