Maybe even asking one on a date or anything?I'm quite an awkward kid, and there's a few girls at work that I sorta like, but I was wondering if anyone had any pointers on how I could get the confidence to talk to them instead of my usual: Walk up to them Keep my head down, mumble something unintelligible Walk off, my head still down, like a loser.Any tips/pointers? Thanks.

I think aunt honesty is so right..its all about confidnece and liking yourself before you can expect anyone else to like you. And besides maybe there is a girl who is interested in you and is waiting for you to make a move because alot of girls wait for the guy to make a first move. I know from personal experiance there is often a shy guy who I like and who i know likes me but im too afraid to ask him out and he never does either so we get nowhere. If you dont take a chance with girls or if theres a particular girl you will never know what might of bin! gud luck (:

 First off you need to work on liking yourself, do things you are good at, this will raise your confidence and make you feel good. Learn to hold your head up high, tell yourself nobody is going to be interested if i keep staring at the floor, girls like eye contact so practice at home with your family looking in to there eyes, take it in steps, soon it will come second nature to you to look in to a persons eyes.
Start of with these girls step by step, just casually say hello when you see them and look in to there eyes when you do this. Then move on after a while of practising this to ask them how there day is, or even ask them could you borrow a pen just small talk, try and find common interests and talk about them.
As for asking a girl out, well its better getting to know a girl as a friend first this makes it easier so once you have started having conversations with them, if there is a girl you like, just come out with it and ask her would she like to go for a drink with you some evening after work, yes it is scary but the worst she can do is say no, and at least then you will know that you tried your best.
