Question Posted Tuesday March 23 2010, 2:37 am

So there's this girl.

She's smart/funny/pretty etc. etc. (read: I'm into her, a lot). She lives pretty far (a long plane ride) away, but that isn't really as big of a problem as it sounds because her job keeps her constantly on the road. I've met up with her a few times (every time she happened to roll through my city), and I keep in touch with her on AIM weekly, whenever she has a chance to get on.

The problem: She's famous. I use the word "famous" very loosely because it's not like she can't go out in public without being mobbed, but if I had to guess I'd say she gets recognized by at least one person around half the time she goes out. I know the obvious next step is to just ask her out on actual date it's just...

I don't know. I guess I'm asking you if you think it's worth pursuing, given the circumstances. I really don't want to lose her. I know you don't know me and you don't know her, so you can't tell me what's right for me. I'm just looking for some input. I also know it's not a very straight-forward question and I'll probably end up asking Rahzie/some other people too. I just wanted to get your opinion first.

Side note: I'm almost finished with school, so it's not like I can just pick up my life and run away with her if things work out. Not to mention, even if I wasn't in school I'm not sure I'd want to do that anyway. Writing this out it seems like there are so many hoops we'd have to jump through to make this work that I'm wondering if it's worth the trouble (and that's not necessarily a reflection of how committed I am/would be to her).

My perspective is that the answer is yes in regards to women unless you have an overriding reason to pick no.

You like her. Keep it up. Flirt, talk, feel her out. Don't come on strong with a "so I like you a ton and would like to formally date you" but definitely keep in touch and see her every chance you get.

When life clears up, keep going. "Not worth the trouble" is something I generally only apply to broken people who need to be fixed before they're sane enough to maintain a relationship. She's just distant.

My wife and I were distance for two years before we were able to move in together. Our lives weren't nearly as complicated as yours are at the moment, but again unless you've got someone else you think you might like more, what have you got to lose?
