Tomorrow I shall go where few aspies have gone before and make it a point to have a altercation with a girl I may actually like somewhat.

But like is sort of a indiscriminate word. What I mean is theres a girl who I found cute who I had no interest in who seemed sort of standoffish with me who ended up being - not what I thought she was. So now I am going to (at the request of a friend), go to their table at lunch and verbally try to speak with the girl.

I'm so screwed.

I don't think altercation means what you think it means. Ditto with indiscriminate.

I used them the way i felt them. Even if your feeling of the word differs.

Err, I don't mean to be nitpicky but

al·ter·ca·tion 
–noun
a heated or angry dispute; noisy argument or controversy.

-_-' sorry. I think, however you feel about the word, you probably didn't mean you were going to fight with her and/or verbally assault her. Indiscriminate can really go either way (in the sense that its not selective, and therefore can be sort of used as a synonym for 'vague')

I like your grasp of language. Yet my wording stands firm, although your roles are reversed.

Good luck, and I admire you for being all pro-active and stuff.

The only way I would ever do that is if the girl made it clear she was interested in me so explicity and unambiguously that I knew I wouldn't be pepper-sprayed.

Let us know how it turns out
