Sure, I know people can just look at each other, but I just want to know if I should go for it. I don't know him personally but we have went to the same elementry, jr high, and now high school. He had no girlfriend, has a lot of friends who are girls, and a lot of people think he's unnappealing(not me of course :P). I am pretty sure he's not gay, but I just don't want to make a fool out of myself. My friends tell me I should just go for it, but I need reassurance. Replies are greatly appreciated :) Thanks.

 Hi
Why not get to know him as a friend first. Maybe you can start bumping into him, so he can get to know you a bit. It will be very hard if you go steaming in and he rejects you. Personally i would take the softly softly approach. That way if he is interested, he will begin to show it, and if not, there will be no harm done. Also dont forget he may be as shy as you, and being approached (i.e going for it) may scare him off. There are ways of showing your interest without making yourself look a fool.After he knows who you are, see if you share any interest's. And if he has friends that are girls, chances are he wont mind another one. Then you can tell him you had more than friendship on your mind and feel a bit more at ease.
godd luck
