Well, without going too deep into details, a friend of mine knows a girl that might be interested in going out with me. We've met a couple of times but not outside of class. This is because I'm about as shy as they come, so thats why Im hoping my friend can give her a tip about me asking her out.

 

But once she receives the word and I see her, what should I say to her? How should I act? What should I ask? I often she her with a group of friends, so that could come into play. I don't want it to feel strange or awkward the next time I see her.

 

My friend isn't asking her out for me, just giving her a tip about my thoughts.

It won't be awkward unless you make it awkward. Keep it light, cool, and casual and she'll respond in kind. As for conversation -- don't think so hard. What would you say to a friend in the same class? Don't treat her like a fragile piece of art -- treat her normally and she'll get the vibe that you're not worried or threatened by her. And she'll LIKE it cuz it'll show you have confidence! That's sexy.

Yeah, biggest thing is don't put her on a pedestal.

 

Don't tell yourself how shy you are. You can talk to other people right? Just pretend she's one of your mom's friends or something inside your head. Nervous is something that goes away if you ignore it.

 

Also, don't have your friend do too much work for you. There's always something that gets lost in translation and there can't be any chemistry through your friend.
