Hey all. I'm in 8th grade, and there is a girl that I really like, but I'm to shy to ask her out. Any tips?

Do you think she would be surprised to know you like her?  If you know her well enough to strike up a conversation with her, start one.  Then swing it around to asking her out.  If you don't know her well enough to just talk to her, get started getting to know her.  Ask her out later.

Yes!!!! Look Being shy is alright.. but not being tooo shy.. because then a girl would get confused.. she wouldn;'t know  how you feel around her.. you need more confidence in yourself so you can talk to girls.. ask ur self these questions.. Why am i scared to talk to girls??? And you will get ur answer.. \nAnd remember.. Girl's wont go for tooo shyy guys.. so be aware.. good luck.. it will take time.. but u can IMPROVE!!! be Bold n go talk to girls!! datz all  ican say...

I had a guy I asked out in the 11th grade. Only time I ever did it and the only reason I did do it is because he had been writing me letters and giving them to my friends. :/ Anyways. When I asked him he said " Oh if you insist " and smiled at me and said he'd love too. Sometimes a little humour and straightforwardness is your best option. Good luck.

she isnt gonna say much cuz shes shy. u need to just ask her. she'll get nervous around u and try to get away if u talk to her like that. when the guy i like talks to me like that it makes me feel like an idiot and i always leave really quick cuz its embarrassing. just ask her. when ur talking. instead of saying dont be shy if u already are friends then ask her if she wants to go out sometime.

Well, ask the girl out that you don't know, the freshman. If you already know everything about the person it's not all that fun. But then again, if you're shy, the other girl you've known for a long time knows that you're shy and she'll understand that you're very insecure and scared about asking her out. She'll most likely say yes if she likes you like that. So, just be yourself, even if that person is a little shy. Or find ways to boost your self confidence. Like getting rid of your acne. Go to a dermatologist..they can help you. Getting rid of that will make you feel better about yourself, and you'll be a little less shy! Good luck!

read this http://www.stwing.upenn.edu/~jenf/writing/rant04.html girls will eventuall grow out of that, im in your exact position, you may not have a girlfriend but in the long run, you will be a winner on it. I hate how it is but thats how the world is, have you tried to ask someone out? even to just a group outing (don't call it a date), or if your in hs, have you asked a girl to a dance? the girls always like nice guys, but they usually take us for granted, as there and someone to talk to. all i can say is try what i said above read the stuff on that site and be confident. best of luck\ncontact me if you have anymore questions, maybe i can be a bit more helpful since im where you are

Since both you and this guy are rather shy you will have to get over your shyness in order to talk to him directly. You don't have to ask him out, but start to really talk to him and get to know him. Build up a "talking" relationship where he feels comfortable talking to you and you feel comfortable talking to him. When you're at that level you can see how you feel about him then and assuming you're still attracted to him you can move on to possibly dating.\n\nIn general, you should wait for him to ask you out, but there's no problem with you being bold and taking the initiative.\n\nTake things one step at a time, but take the steps!

Tell here straight away that you are shy, but you've seen here around. That you don't want to try any lame lines on her but you would like to get to know her. Just be sincere don't worry about being rejected, you haven't gotten to that point yet and if she is the type of person that wont give another the time to get to know her then is she even worth the trouble?

Real easy. Tell her you are interested and ask her to dinner. If she's not game, she's probably not interested. If you're direct and assertive her shyness won't get in the way. Don't ask her to come out with you and your friends, either.  You want to make yourself clear that you want a romantic dinner.\n\nDon't worry so much about rejection.  It happens.

sorry but the most logical thing to do is to be more outgoing and get over the shy thing!\n\nIf i see something i like i go for it, but unfortunately some other girls hate making the first move and totally depend on the guy. Don't feel insecure and if she says no! so what! your 18, plenty more! Be casual about it and go in with an open mind. Dont think the first one you ask will say yes. And try to remember that you may be hot but personailty counts just as much as looks, even more.

maybe you should get to know her first.  start talking to her as a friend for a few days.   after that  let her know how cool it has been and then ask her out.  it will be a less intimadting then going up to a stranger and asking them out

oh just ask her out. don't be shy. if you have to just ask her out as friends and maybe something will grow from that.

Well the first thing you have to do is stop being afraid!  A date will never happen until you get the nerve up to talk to her and ask her out.  Even then she may reject you due to peer pressure since her friends don't like you but if she does then she isn't worth pursuing anyway.  Good luck!

just calm down...take a few breathers before you ask her. im in the same situation as you are. my friends are telling me to go for it and im just scared and im afraid that i will get toung tied too. just be yourself. act how you usually act around her. when you think its the right time, pull her over to the side, look her strait in the eyes and ask her. do NOT ramble on about how much you like her. that might creap her out alittle bit. just go for it and ask her strait forward if she wants to go out with you. good luck!!

Dude I'm in the same situation. Now I'm Not going to give you some dumbass answer like some people because i know it's hard to ask a popular girl out. Just start a conversation with her, Flirt with her and then casually say hey do you want to go to the movies this Saturday. It works buddy.

If shes shy, then be nice.\n\nMaybe walk past her, make eye contact, and give her a great smile. One of two of these, then say hi. Just hi... no deep conversation. Again, one or two of these, and then finally just full out introduce yourself. \n\nIf she is shy, she may also be insecure. So dont over-kill it.\n\nOr, you could just walk up to her, tell her how you feel, see what happens. (As a once-was shy girl, i would prefer the first option though). This bold approach may work for some, but if shes shy, it just might scare her away.\n\nBest of luck to you.
