I like this girl but I'm afraid to talk to her? (sort of long with multiple dates)?

You should ask her to hang out with you, out of cl so that you can get to know each other. It doesn't have to be a date, just see if she wants to hang out as friends and take it from there. If you like her and you want to get to know her, then take the first step and be brave, otherwise it will never happen. Even if it doesn't work out, it's better to have tried and know what she wants.
