writes:There is this girl in my dorm who I have known for a few months now and who I have come to really like. I think she's incredibly beautiful and it seems like we genuinely have a lot in common interests and personality wise. The only problem is, I'm very shy, especially around her, and I've barely said four words to her in all this time. We see each other a lot and she knows who I am, but whenever she's around I just get really quiet. Like, if I'm sitting near her in a group of people I just stay out of the conversation and kind of act like I'm disinterested. Sometimes it's just been the two of us somewhere, but neither of us said anything and it was just awkward silence.At this point I feel like she must think I'm an antisocial loser or dislike her or something, which is maybe why (although I never say anything to her) she never says anything to me either. Another problem is that she's a lot more experienced relationship-wise than me, and I kind of feel self-conscious about that.I know I should just start making conversation with her, but I tell myself I'm going to every day and I'm never able to. I've been shy around her for so long that it would feel weird at this point. It's not even that I don't know what to say to her, I know a lot I'd like to say to her, I can just never vocalize around her and I'm not even sure exactly why.Would it be a good idea for me to talk to her in private and explain that I never talked to her because I was shy and maybe ask if her she'd like to get to know each other better? And is it even possible that she could still be interested in me at this point?

It seems like whenever u talk to her u over think it and believe that what u say isn't going to make her like u. Instead try and picture her as one of your friend then work ur way up to finding how she feels about u, act fast though cause if she's as buetiful as u say she won't be single for long. Good luck
