"I think it's important to get to know Megan, and make her feel comfortable. You could always say that you'd like to get to know her more and that's why you're asking her to the dance?" Mandy suggested, her brows furrowing a bit as she thought about it. Had it been this difficult for she and Harry? No, probably not. They were friends first.
"But don't just settle for someone, Ron. If there's someone that you really like you should ask them. If you don't well, it doesn't hurt to get to know someone?" she suggested, with a shrug. To be honest, other than being a girl, she didn't feel overly qualified to be answering these questions. "And yes, being friends first is really a good thing. Even if you don't share the same interests, taking interest in what they like is a good thing, too."
