Need advice because /adv/ is useless

Just started Uni

I met this exchange student from Switzerland two weeks ago who is in the same dorm as me.

She is cute but mostly I value her maturity among other things and the fact she is a very sweet introvert I find attractive and endearing.

But it feels so hard to get close to her

We hung out for a whole day for a school event which I really enjoyed.

Then she made a couple of girlfriends and I just kind of ended up in their group.

The problem is she has a lot less free time so I've been mostly hanging out with the other girls and other than that one time we have never been without the other girls.

Another problem is she is kind of an introvert, not shy but she speaks very softly and everyone else is a lot more talkative including me.

I know you are supposed to pay attention to the girl and try to give her attention so I get self-conscious and I just feel shitty when if find myself talking about myself.

All I really want is to be alone with her and tell her all the things I value about her and that I care about what she thinks and feels.

But no, even my female friends have told me I have to play it cool and pretend I don't give a fuck and try to be confident which is not hard for me but I'm afraid she will think I'm arrogant.

I fucking hate this, somebody help me!!
