You could open the door for her and give genuine compliments on things that others may not have noticed/said about her. It should probably start out NOT being about looks, but either that she is smart in a certain area or that she is skilled in something in particular. Don't give too many, maybe 1 or 2 compliments a month would be good for starters. You could ask her to a "light lunch" somewhere or for coffee...b/c this is not too serious and is a safe thing for most women. Of course, you might want to find out if she likes/drinks coffee first. I have some other ideas, but you probably want to go slow first. Women are like fish (hate to admit this, because I'm a female)...just remember, if one goes fishing...they know not to make a bunch of racket/noise...but lure in quietly with a tiny bit of bait. Too much of anything will tend to scare us away.

Uh oh!! ! The WSOA (Women Society of America) just called me and said they are revoking my Female Card due to divulging the secrets of our kind. Joking aside though, go in slow and steady and try to be yourself without revealing too much information at first. Women like to talk, so ask a few questions and show some interest in the things that she likes. Occasional joking can be good too.

Best of luck to you!! ! :D

It is unlikely she will date casually if she is pious.

Unless you plan to become a Muslim, there is not much mileage.

It is worth a try, since you like being around her. If it goes well, great!! ! If not, there is nothing lost or gained from trying - except perhaps some good experience on what did/did not work best for any future attempts down the road.

Don't put a lot of pressure on yourself, as if she likes you for you...that is really kind of person that you'll be best matched with. And, if due to her religion she does not date, that wouldn't be personal anyhow.

Where I live there are many Muslims, due to the local university that attracts a diverse population from across the world. If you ever want to PM me, I can give you some ideas and pointers. I have only dated one Muslim man before, but have been friends with many...and there's a chance that I could help a little bit.
