    Comfort her only with no other intentions than to console. Take it from there. Hitting on her while she is upset would seem somewhat insensitive.

    Extacly what I am trying to do. Don't get me wrong, I would be legitmatelly sorry if her father dies, I would, but I'm trying to kill 2 birds with one stone here. Show my respect + score points. Proably only time I'll get to do it sadly.

    Very good. Points you score after your encounter, in my opinion, would be acquired as you leave her alone to mourn in peace.

    This must be one of the most depressing threads I've read in a while. Save a few exceptions, what dissapointments all around.

    Just be nice. Once the thing is over, then you cash in your points.

    Don't try to do both at once, that often doesnt turn out well...

    If you are trying to score points you aren't really being nice.

    Only comfort her, yes. Tell her that she doesn't have to go to class, and that you're willing to photocopy your notes for her (make sure you write clearly during class). This means she has to talk to you next time, whereupon you will hand her the notes, explain some things about them, and tell her to holla at ya if she has any questions or concerns about it. This will put you on speaking terms, and you can actually talk or sit by her throughout the remaining semester. Sometime in, say "Heeeey, I'm gonna grab some coffee before my next class, you're welcome to come if you'd like."

    Don't think of her as a primary source of fun, though. You're tryna be a good person, and at most: just keep her in your back pocket for a while, nothing too soon, you need to give her time, right?
