Should I shoot my shot?

So I've recently come off the blackpill and I've been thinking about how to move my life forward now that I'm going to head back into the dating market...

I've always struggled talking to girls because I find it really hard to talk to someone who has different interests than me and it doesn't help that I've been bullied severely in the past which hasn't exactly been good for my confidence.

Then I started college... the course was fun and there are cool people there too... but there is this girl... she's a bit of a tomboy... she listens to led zeppelin, plays rugby etc, she's really fun to talk to and be around and I don't have a problem talking to her because we share a lot of common interests.

We've been pretty good friends for a few months now and I really want to just have the balls to ask her out, but then I stop myself and say to myself that I shouldn't do it because I'll ruin my friendship with her... what should I do?
