I see this girl at school all the time that I think is really cute. I'm pretty sure she has a boyfriend but I would still like to get talking to her. I don't really know why, I think it's half hoping that she has a bad relationship and might be waiting for an excuse out, but I actually don't have a clue. I'm also just very honestly curious about what kind of person she is. I live in a small city and usually most non-foreign uni students are vaguely acquainted....I've never even heard someone mention her name before though.
As a person of the opposite sex, or assuming you are "the person" (if you are gay), how do you take to this situation? I met my last girlfriend while she was dating a different guy and she immediately started complaining about him, so I never felt uncomfortable about it at the time. However, that was a different person and I don't want to be too confident about approaching someone without knowing a thing, you know?
I know some people will probably think it's rude or inconsiderate to approach non-singles knowing they aren't singles, but if your relationship is secure, what's the big deal? Control issues? I'm extremely polite and not even the slighest bit a pushy person.
Nothing wrong with trying. Do you share classes with her? Do you always see her at the campus coffee shop or something? If yes, you've got an in- just wait til you see her and introduce yourself.
"Hey, I noticed you're in XX class with me, blahblahblahblah" or something like that. You never know until you make an attempt.

Thanks.
If she's not married she's fair game.
