Maybe it's the phone.  Consider knocking on her door and giving her
the invitation face to face!

Sure, it's more trouble--that's the point.  It makes you face the
decision squarely: she's worth it! or she's not worth it.

(A lot of shy people would decline this method as being TOO personal--
makes you seem too eager or something.  Phooey!  Even if she rejects
you, you'll probably get a least a pat on the head.)
