Should I Ask An Older Woman Out On A Date? Options

Unusual topic? Maybe. Just curious as to what y'all think.

I can't really tell if she's interested in me or not, and I am 20 - I would guess she is 40 or 45. I can't tell if she would be flattered or merely laugh that a kid would ask her out. I don't mind being laughed at, but I have to see her somewhat often, so it could be awkward. I am immune to humiliation, but I'd rather not make her uncomfortable.

I know no one else knows what I personally "should" do; I just want some other opinions on my prospects. Can a 20-year-old ask a middle-aged woman out on a date? Is it done? Is it socially unacceptable?

I resolved at around age 5 not to have anything to do with people, and so far the only people I've really had to deal with are my professors... so I'm unsure about these things.

"sie ist unglaublich englisch, mein deutsch ist schrecklich!, und so haben wir unsere büste reime unleserlich!"

Quite nicely. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) How about yourself? (I would never have posted this thread ordinarily, though... don't nod & post, I guess.)

Was?! Mehr wie "Mein Englisch ist schrecklich. Auf wiedersehen. Ich verstehe dich nicht. Ich muss gehen." Ich bin ein schrecklicher feigling! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif) Aber danke für die Ermutigung.
