Hello, I’m a 15 year old male and I’m a pre professional ballet dancer. I’ve been in ballet basically before I was born my parents signed me up for classes. I live and breathe ballet. 6 days a week I spend at my academy where I also go to school there. I’m straight and I feel like I’m finally ready to date or at least try to… the big problem is I was asking my sister(26F) for advice and she told me “don’t shit where you eat” and I asked what that meant and she told me not to fuck my future co workers because when we break up it’s going to be weird. The ballet scene is small the North American ballet scene is even smaller so now I’m really scared to date any of the girls in my academy but I also basically live here! I spend more time here than my own house. What do I do?

I’m a 15 year old pre professional ballet dancer signed to a North American ballet academy. I go to one of the biggest ballet academies in North America with that being said we have some forgien students and general talent at the academy and agency. This girl I like she came her for this ballet season as she plans to move to America full time for work when she goes pro. She is extremely talented, amazingly beautiful and so passionate about our craft as soon as I met her I had an instant crush. She stays at the dorms and I still live at home. Her English is good but like not super amazing and sometimes I’ve seen she has trouble keeping up in social situations with everyone talking and stuff during breaks and actual schoolwork stuff. I want to get closer to her and maybe ask her out one day but I don’t know how. My plan was to ask her if she needed help with her English homework or something but I feel like it would be insulting if someone an academic grade below you asked if you need help with work. My best friend she told me that I should just ask her to hang out or take her and maybe another friend to some local place to eat but I don’t know I’m nervous and don’t want to be down play her or agnything
