Sweet Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Hi, there is this really cute boy in one of my classes and i really want to talk to him and see if he likes me. However, i think he is sort of out of my league sometimes. So instead i get really nervous and just sit a row in front of him or play with my cell phone to seem like I am busy. I am kind of hoping he would just talk to me. Is this normal? I am told I am very pretty I just am nervous and want him to make the first move.
prettybaby Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I used to when I was younger. Now I think nobody's out of my league because I'm a pretty damn good catch myself, so they can consider themselves lucky when I feel like talking to them lol And looking busy will not help the situation at all, people don't approach those who are busy with their cell phone, so try to act open, friendly, and approachable Why not ask him a random question about the class to break the ice a bit?
kashmir Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 The cell phone thing always discourages me at least, because I think exactly what the girl is intending to do - look busy. Plus it's kinda rude to interrupt someone even if they're only texting (though most likely their text message isn't that important ) Honestly, if you're so shy that you can't even look at him and NEED to do something to occupy yourself, do something unique, like draw. I'd feel a lot more comfortable starting a conversation with a girl I liked if I could tell she was just kicking back and doing something fun before class starts. It'd also makes for an easy opener, like, "Hey, that's a cool drawing, are you an art student?"
belladonna Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I agree with prettybaby - just ask a question about the class. Sit near him, or whatever, and ask "Hey did you finish the assignment for tomorrow?" or "How did you find that last test?" or "What do you think of the prof?". And if he keeps up the conversation, you can introduce yourself. Random guys sometimes just ask me questions like that before class, there's nothing wrong with a bit of small talk. And then you can get a feel for how interested he is in talking to you. Good luck!
IrishCarBomb Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 As others have said, don't look busy. It'll distance him from you. Instead just be open to conversation, ask relevant questions, make witty observations, or just crack a joke. Along with that, get good at your flirty smile. It's not overt, but a guy easily picks up on it. If he's into you he'll get the idea... he may not necessarily make a move, but he'll know what's on your mind.
