We stare at each other a lot, so how do I get confident and talk to him?

A female United Kingdom, anonymous writes:

Hi, I'm 17 and recently I've had a fair few guys who I find attractive show an interest in me, but I never know any of them well enough. I'll meet them at college and we'll talk for a bit, then we just sort of... go our separate ways. It never amounts to anything. I know they're interested because they say I'm hot, or they'll ask for my number. But it never goes further than that! It's tempting to just go out with the first nice hot guy who asks, but I want a long-term relationship and I don't want to be landed with a guy I don't really know anything about, only to end up crushing on someone else.

Another thing is there is this certain guy in the year above me. I have never spoken to him but there's that 'something' about him and I can't stop thinking about him. Every time we pass in the corridors we stare at each other in a pretty obvious way, and I reckon I have a chance, if only I could talk to him! I am not that confident about people I don't know... any advice on how to get to know him?!?

Thanks! xxx

bqagirl2692 agony auntWell in order for you to get to know somebody very well, you must find the courage to speak to them. Yes there may be sources that can tell you what that person has done and what they think about that person but you'll never really get the inside scoop from anyone else but that person. There is a look between you both so your not invisible. Little by little just start making little talk. Im not saying get into a deep conversation ( Although if you could that'll be great), just take baby steps since your a little shy. The best way to get to know the real them is speaking to them. Trust your own instincts. Good luck and you'll be fine!

Psyx agony aunttry finding out a little about him...not stalking,just research.Then approach him and say "hey!I heard u like (eg.) goldfish!" and then chat from there...move the conversation around his interests so he has a reason to want to chat to you again...ask him whether he wants to have coffee with you some time or take him to see some action movie and a take-away dinner...

Thats what I usually do...And it works for me!
