Shy guy, I can't talk to him

Question - (9 May 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 10 May 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I like this guy, who knows I like him.

But I've been kind of ignoring him lately (playing hard-to-get -_-)

but he doesn't like me back. (If a guy knows you like him, why not ask you out right? And he hasn't done that.)

We were acquaintances before that. We talked and stuff, but never been in a full in-depth conversation. But now that he knows, any chance of friendship was wiped off. Because it became extremely awkward after that.

He tries to talk sometimes, but then the conversation just dies out. And vice versa.

But he's really shy, and so am I. So it's really hard to get anywhere.

I just want to be friends(or acquaintances again at least) but whenever I try to talk to him, I start panicking and stuttering and blushing and he has this annoyingly straight face devoid of emotion.

So how can I talk to a guy, who I haven't talked with in a while, who knows I like him, who is shy?

And I don't want to appear like I'm throwing myself at him?

would he even think that if I talked to him a lot?

Or wut? I just can't be myself around him..

OH and I'm 14...he's 13 in case that somehow matters.

Oh my gosh I had this same problem once! Anyways, if you're both really shy that makes it all the harder but not impossible. My boyfriend as of now was like that. He never showed emotion when we talked and it's mostly because he was so nervous. Maybe your guy just needs to lighten up. If u have classes together in something do stuff together. Ask him dumb questions, anything to get his attention. You wont come off as throwin yourself at him. He'll get more comfortable around you soon enough. And not all guys dont ask out girls b/c they DONT like them. It could be the opposite. He could just be too shy and scared. Build up a friendship anyway you can. Just get closer to him txt or talk online since its more impersonal and its easier for shy people to do. I wish you the best luck!
