There is just one problem: He is one of the most popular seniors in the entire school! We have never spoken before, and he is 6'4'', which can be a little intimidating, let me tell you! I'm not even sure he knows that I exist. I'm interested in having a friendship with him, but am to scared to approach him. Plus I think he would think it was weird that I wanted to be his friend because I'm a freshman girl. What do you think I should do?

Try saying hi to him in the halls and walking with him while talking. Then, maybe try and arrange hanging out times and get his phone number so you can talk outside of school. I don't really agree with Cerberus here. If you become friendly with him, he might fall for you. Many guys do.. And having a crush on a friend isn't all that bad. I've had them. And who knows, once you get to know him you might not be all that attracted to him after all and may want to just stay friends.

Seriously having a crush on a guy you're not friends with is hard enough, but becoming friends with someone you have a crush on, falling deeper into that crush can be soul destroying.
If you want to go ahead anyway and try and be his friend then talk to him. Really there's no reason to be intimidated or scared. If he's a nice guy he will talk to you too, if not then at least you know and you can move on.
