Here's the thing. On some level you are never going to stop finding her attractive. That's totally normal and OK. You shouldn't fight your brain on that because it will double down on you. But that doesn't mean you can't get over your crush. If you talk to her and it doesn't go anywhere I'd say to try to avoid seeing her for a while. Literally. Focus on other things and other people and give your brain time to think about why you had this crush. Yeah, it's the "Inception" problem; if you constantly try to forget something, you'll remember that you're trying to forget it and then you're still thinking about it. The mind is weird. |

Honest, simple answer, find somebody else. You'll forget all about her. That's exactly what I'm going to do! I know this is only temporary. |

I'm going to preface this by saying I'm good at advice and terrible at applying it but this is from my own personal experience in high school over a decade ago...
I say go for it. You only go around this world once. You literally have nothing to lose. Just start off slow with something in common you are both interested in (recent movie, sports team, etc.). If you read her as interested only as a friend, then just roll with that and you could end up with a good friend. If you feel like there is something more there after a week, 2 weeks, a month, whatever, pursue that avenue. It can be something as simple as going to a slightly romantic or scary movie, and read her from there. You'd be surprised at how your gut feeling on her is most often right.
I'll also point out that the relationship I base my advise on didn't work out in the long run, but it was a long term relationship that I learned from and to this day it was one of the best decisions of my life to pursue it when I was 17.
