Theres this girl I want to get to know better than sits right next to me in class... what are some verbal and physical signals I could send that would convey that I'm interested? I don't want to seem awkward or too forward.. what do i do? We smile at each other sometimes but thats about it.. how do I get the ball rolling?
talk to her for chrissakes
I know. How's about talking.
Why does no one ever get this one?
edit: ha ha me and lilwing posted the same thing at the same time
But how do i start the conversation? i need details! its been a while since my last relationship (which ended badly and robbed me of a lot of my confidence) :sad2:
Well considering tomorrow's Monday, I've got a whopper for you! Say to her, "What do you think of this class so far?" Or "What did you think of the last test in here?" Or "How was your weekend?" Or, you could really put yourself out there and say, "Hi."
dont have to be a jerk about it....
I'm just kiddin around dude, relax. :) Just because you think you like her doesn't mean you need to be any different than if you were just meeting another guy. Be nice, talk about shit you'd normally talk about, and see what happens. I'm terrible at hitting on girls or whatever you want to call it, but you are in a neutral setting at school that makes it much easier. Just talk to her, and be yourself. And if something good comes from that, then cool!
dont just talk to her...think about what you are going to say. say something that doesnt sound halfbaked. dont ask her how school is. start out by asking her what her name is..and if you forget that, theres always time later to go "hey! here i am talking to you and i dont even know your name!"
talk about your interests and ask her about hers. if you get a negative response, lay off a bit.
i already know her name...
i just dont wanna sound random... i want to avoid coming out of the blue and saying something like "so what kind of music do u listen to?". i need a good icebreaker that will make those kind of questions less awkward..
before you ask questions like that you gotta wait until she smiles, smile back, say hi and your name and ask for her name even though you already know it. ask her how she feels that day. then ask as many questions as you want.
For the love of god just start a natural conversation with her! ;)Quote:

yip yip yip. You can't honestly be THAT shy!? Borrowin a pen or pencil is a good idea. Or pretend you forgot to do your homework and ask to see what she did in case you get asked a question. There is no such thing as the perfect ice-breaker, everything will seem wrong to you because you're so stressed over the situation.I think the best is to ask how her weekend was. It's not too personal, and she will have to answer with more than a yes or no.
aight ive summed up enough courage to overcome my shyness and try some of these ideas out... thank u SO MUCH to everyone... ill let u know what happens!
