Would this be awkward?

Question

There's this girl I like, but never met before. She's a sophomore cheerleader, and I'm a junior football player.

I don't know her school schedule and I've never seen her around school. but apparently, we are Facebook friends.

I would really like to get to know her in person first, but I have no idea where her classes are or where her locker is.

So is it okay to talk to her on Facebook first by writing on her wall? (it's like leaving a comment on MySpace).

I've been told these two lines are good icebreakers:

"hey i have you as a friend on facebook but we never talk...we should change that...lol so whats up what have you been up to during break?"

or

"hey i have you as a friend on facebook but i dont believe we've ever talked... how was your christmas?"

I would get to know her via Facebook, then try to find and talk to her at school (we come back Jan. 7)

But would that be awkward?

(and if this is okay to do, which one of the two lines is best?)

Answer 1

It's a slick idea, the second one is much more.... slick about it, doesn't hint of desperation ;-) if you get my meaning....
