Hi everyone.

I work part-time and at my work there is this girl who I have been crushing on for awhile. We have spoken once and it was when she was new, which was almost 2 months ago.

There have been rumors going around about us which are really childish but it makes me feel even more insecure when I want to speak with her. About 2 weeks ago she randomly asked me why I dont talk with her. This came to a real shock for me and I responded with "Because I dont know what to say".

About a week after that I asked her why she asked me that because I felt confused espcially with all the stuff going around why I would be asked that and she replied with "because you're always silent around me".

I dont know how to deal with this situation espcially since I hardly talk to her and because of the rumours. On the other hand I really like this girl and I don't know what to do.

Lilly223 agony auntPerfect solution for you. If all she wants to do is just talk, then that is how it will be. You will have gained a friend. But you won't know that until you give it a go. Take a deep breath and give it a try!

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

I understand what you're saying and you're right I am painfully shy. I will talk to her but I am afraid when I do she'll say that she just wanted to talk, nothing more.

I was thinking, depending on what people will say (yes, what I am going to do will be heavily reflected by what people have to say) is answer her question honestly.

Lilly223 agony auntShe is giving you loud and clear messages that she WOULD like to talk to you, and you sound almost painfully shy... a difficult thing to overcome, especially when it involves talking to a new person you believe you really like. Talk to her about work, what you and your friends did last night, try to find something the two of you have in common, ask her to the movies... you can't talk much til it's over, and when it is, you WILL have something to talk about. Ignore the morons at work, and just start talking. She is giving you opportunities to that I think you are just not recognizing. In summary, just GO for it. Hope it works out!
