So I don't so much have a burning question, as I need help brainstorming. I'm a college student, and one of the best ways to isolate and build rapport with a girl here is to catch a meal with her around campus. It's low pressure, and it doesn't come across as too forward.

Now I've been slow-gaming(I've been kinda busy with GREs and all) a HB8 for about a week now. She's flashing all kinds of IOIs, she's qualifying herself to me. She jumps to respond whenever I text her or facebook her. She volenteers her number so that the "conversation is easier," she laughs at all my jokes, she's all kinds of nervous and lets not start on all the clothes smoothing, or the sidelong glances.

Yet the 2 times we've met up so far I haven't been in a position to do much kino escalation. Enough to keep the candelabra burning, but not much more than that. So now we're meeting up for that oh-so fun informal dinner thing tomorrow night, and I'm a bit unsure as to how to best kino escalate it. Mainly I want to anchor and intensify her feelings for me so that when I see her at this party on Friday, nothing will be left to chance. That and I don't want to come on too strong or heavens forbid...seem needy. As I'm a senior and she's a freshman I can't be Mr. Malapropism, or Mr. Awkward touchy. I need to be confident and gregarious like I usually am.

That's the long, short and wide of it. Tell me what yall recommend.
