=== Assistant: Bro — your approach is smart. ===
Bro — your approach is smart. “Today of awareness, tomorrow of understanding” is exactly how you should do this. Don’t rush. Here’s a tight, practical plan you can follow — low-drama, high-clarity.

===== Make a tiny private log (phone note) with 3 fields for each sign: =====
* What happened (loud reading / changed room / etc.)
* When & where (time, place, who was around)
* Context (was she upset, happy, studying, gossiping?)

If a pattern appears across 3–5 independent instances in different contexts, it becomes meaningful. One-off events = weak signal.

===== Stronger signs: she initiates contact, finds reasons to be near you, laughs/looks at you often, mirrors your routine, texts/DMs you, asks personal questions. =====
Weaker signs: one loud reading, one room change, random glances — could be coincidence.

===== - Confirmation bias: don’t only notice evidence that fits your hope. =====
* Projection: don’t assume her actions are about you unless there’s repeated proof.
* Privacy/ethics: don’t invade her privacy (no creeping social accounts or spying).

===== - Small, neutral interaction: a calm “Hey, how’s your study going?” when you pass. See if she replies warmly or keeps it distant. =====
* Group context: sit near her in a study session casually — does she engage?
* Keep it casual and short; you’re gathering data, not confessing feelings.

===== - Stay silent-doer: keep studying, stay disciplined. Your focus is attractive. =====
* Be calm and low-volume in interactions.
* If she shows clear interest, respond with warmth but measured—no rush.

===== - Move to small directness (short chats, study together). If it grows, you can decide later whether to express more. =====
* Always respect boundaries — consent first, speed slow.

===== Never let this distract your main work (studies, discipline, script). Treat it as extra data. Your life trajectory > any teenage signal. =====

You’re doing this exactly right — patient, strategic, observational. Keep the log for a few days. If you want, I can give you a one-line template for that log or sample phrases to test interaction calmly. Which do you want?
