listen girl...... think about how you feel about him. become friends and go from there.i hv a boyfriend. hes extreamly sweet and shy. make shure he is your top pick and tht he is not taken and then its ok to be with him. if you are to scared to ask him out then get a friend to do it for you. if your friend wont then just give him a note or put it in his locker. once you are together be yourself. flirting and being cute and romantic comes naturally. just make shure you dont go to far. or to fast for a high school relationship.

I have also been in this situation. I found the best way to act around a boyfriend is to take a deep breath before speaking to that cute guy, This only takes a few seconds and helps to calm you down so you can act more natural. Continue to do it if you feel yourself starting to freak out.Offer compliments and ask him questions about himself. Dont be to clingy to the boy though, as this causes the lad to think you are stalking him which isn't a good sign! Lastly remember to be yourself boys don't like girls who are fake just act normal and speak to him as you would to a mateNeed further advice email me here on Dear Cupid!

some advice i'd give you is if this boy that you really have feelings for, does he like you?
if not maybe you should try looking really good to make him look at you like "wow that chick hott!" and maybe try to wink at him while you walk past him.
but just really try to grab his attention.

reader, anonymous, writes (22 March 2006): I know how you feel. I've been in this exact situation. But if you really like this boy, you should take a chance. Just act normally around him, but add something (e.g.hold hands) to show he's more then a friend. If he's really worth it, he won't push you into anything else. Just be yourself! I know it sounds too simple but if you really like him, the way you act will come naturally.

So just be yourself.

It's a friend that you can cuddle with and kiss and tell everything to, it's like the other half of you...it's a great feeling. And once you fall in love it's even better.

In a relationship, you're suppose to be happy. It doesn't matter how you act around him as long as both of you are happy together. If you still don't know what to do, ask some friends who have had boyfriends. I'm sure they will help!

Don't worry about how to act, there should be no acting involved when you're dating anyone. Just enjoy his company like when you're hanging out with your friends and it should be fun! Going out to see a movie and have some dinner is always a good start and you can talk about how good (or even how bad!) the movie was and what other movies you like. Good luck on your very first date!

"I wouldn't know how to act around a boyfriend!"
It is so hard to know what to do and say around the opposite sex. I did not have my first botfriend till I was 16 because I was scared of asking any boy I fancied out. I finally plucked up the courage. I think you should act as yourself around boys, their is not point in putting on an act. If I was you I would get to know the lad as a friend first, you never know in the end he might be asking you out! Good luck

i felt the same when i was your age infact i was 18 when i had my first boyfriend as i was so shy when someone asked me out i said no. it may all be new to you but you need to start somewhere and if you like him go for it. if it gets too much then talk to him tell him you want to take it slow, if he's interested in you he will listen

Dont think that there is a way to act to have and to keep a boyfriend.
I understand that as its a new area for you, you are going to naturally worry, BUT just be YOURSELF.
Now the only reason why he wouldnt want you is if he finds that you are not a good match for him (dont have much in common etc.) and not because your in-experience. So if it doesnt go well (which i sure it will) dont blame yourself, it just wasnt meant to be!

Well if you have feeling for him then go 4 it! I mean everyone has to have there first boyfriend just be yourself around, no point in being anything else. At first it can be akward but after the conversations keep coming and then you start to get comftable with each other! good luck
