Relationship Psychiatry
Rughugger:
There was a girl I chased for four years in High School. Granted, it wasn't so much of a pursuit, just the most awkward attempts to be her lab partner or homework buddy while we were at school. In any case, I'm sure she got the hint I was interested and finally, two weeks before graduation, I got the guts to write her a note and stuffed it in her locker. This was of course after the fact that one day she called me "hun" instead of just addressing me by my name. I thought I had an in and took it.
Unfortunately, the next day when I walked by her as per my usual tradition, I wave hello hoping she'd bring up the note. Instead she looked at her friend, pointed in my direction and they both started laughing. Granted, I was crushed, but at least I can go through life knowing how she felt rather than ever wonder what could have been and I can happily live with that.
Just go for it, life is too short to live with regrets.

stick it in her pooper.

I assume when you say "Ask out" you actually mean "Ask out to go do something that is actually a date" if you want to break a 3rd grader's mindset, don't ask "LOL WANT TO GO OUT WITH ME?" ask "Hey, would you want to (dinner, movie, paintballing, etc.) with me some time?"
Also I get what you're saying. I'm going through a little bit of the same thing at this point. I feel like highschool is a time to have good friends and solid relationships, romantic or otherwise. I don't want to be in a relationship with a girl just because, and I definitely don't want drama in it. If I find a girl that I feel like I can have a normal relationship with and it not be weird at all, than great, but for the time being I think I'm just going to enjoy being single.
Caution:
I agree with everything you said there, as far as the drama stuff goes.
Other than that, ask her to hang out sometime. If she says yes, you'll be happy and chances are she's happy. If she says no, then don't let it effect your relationship with her. Though, for me, it is easier said than done.
And as for your friend, if he's so negative, forget him, and I don't mean literally.

Paintball=greatest date ever.
