writes: About a month ago, I started taking a martial arts class at my school. I LOVE it! There's also a really hot guy in my class that I am horribly attracted to. I'm always staring at him and I think sometimes I catch him looking at me as well. Since I'm a white belt, I don't get many opportunities to stand near him or socialize with him in class.There have been a few times that he's come up to me and made small chit chat, and I do get strange "pings" in my intuition that tells me he's at least attracted to me (I've never been wrong with this in the past.) But I find that I'm totally tongue tied when I do have small windows of opportunity to really talk to him and and ask him about himself, etc. But generally I feel like my timing is always off. I get to class early and I'm able to socialize with the other people in class and he's usually late so he walks in while we're all already warming up. He walks home with the other black belts (all male) after class so I feel like if I tried to tag along with them it'd be a bit awkward and desperate looking. I just don't know how to go about trying to chat up this guy when I feel like I don't really ever have a good opportunity/chance to do it. Should I just stop waiting around for the "perfect opportunity" and just...I dunno...ask him out or something? Would that be weird since I don't really even know that much about him? Please help. I'm so frustrated every time I come back from class at this point. Reply to this Question Share |

reader, anonymous, writes (3 November 2010): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionSorry, I meant to say that he's a black belt and I'm a white belt, so even though he's not my actual instructor there's that whole strict hierarchy thing. So that's another reason why it's hard for me to get the chance to talk to him too much in class. I seem to get paired up with the other black belts during sparring, etc, but I've only gotten paired up with him once. So frustrating!
