Ask him to teach you about football. Guys love to feel smart.

talk about sports or things that you know he likes, sometimes it is hard for a guy to find things to talk about, so whenever he asks you something try not to give one word answers

Hey!  \n\nI'm a 16-year-old girl and I hope I might be able to help out a little.\n\nOkay, I definitely wouldn't tell him that I liked him straight off-  that could possibly scare him away, and you don't want that ((he might just be looking to be friends)).  Whenever you see him next, I would start by saying hey ((hey is good)), and asking him about something that's going on at school or even American Idol, if he watched it.. HEY! You cna ask if he thinks Taylor should have won!  Ask about sports.. guys like those =) haha.  Whatever you ask, just keep the conversation goin.  Try to find things you have in common.\n\nJust start with casual, easy, but most of all NORMAL conversation.  I wouldn't start giving him your life-story-- ya just met him =)  Give it time and let me know how it goees!  If it doesn't work out, he's probably just a jerk anyway-  Lord knows there are plenty of those out there. Good luck!!

Been there.  Uhh, well the girl i like eventually just found out, she didn't act that weird though.  You could try asking him to something simple, like the movies.  Think about how important your friendship is and how important it is that you want to be with him.  Try asking some of your girl friends.  I don't want to say anything to "out there" because i don't want my advice to hurt anybody.  If you really want a longer answer, just email me. thump713

What do I like to talk about. What am I interested in?\n\nMe.\n\nAsk guys about themselves. Listen. When it's your turn to talk, tell him about your feelings, be honest, but make your point and stop. Then ask him questions about things he's talked about and listen some more.

Well, thats the same problem with me.But I mean exactly the same problem. Don't hang around him too much because he'll know that u like him. So what i would do, just tell him, "Hey, What's up?" and start a conversation with him to make him feel comfortable. Then ask, "Last year, we had good times. We talked a lot but why don't you speak to me anymore?" And then he might answer your question. But one thing i would like to clear to you, is about your best friend. My friend Brenda does the same thing:Wants every guys attention as possible. What you should do, join sports programs,drama club,etc to become popular and eventually, your crush might like you IF you did something good in basketba or any type of sport. Dont be nervous. Try it!

he still wants to be able to talk to, but it looks like hes a different person. when hes in a big crowd your not the kinda person that he wants to be, its like 2 best friends in different crowds. one goes skater, one goes prep. they still like each other but they turn into two different people. what i would do is just come out and say it. rejection can be hard, but at least you'll know the truth if he says yes. all goes well and y'all give it a chance. if he says no than ask to be friends and leave it at that.

i mostly talk about school.  ask him what classes he's in or how his day went.  maybe you've had one of his teachers before or you have the same class, just different times.  that way you can make fun of the teacher or talk about how lame the homework is.  if he's in sports, ask him how his season is and if you dont understand something, just ask.  also, you could talk about music to see if you're interested in the same stuff.  movies is always a good thing to talk about too.  see if you two like the same movies....that way you can ask him if he wants to see a movie with you sometime.

As a guy I will have to say when I talk to a girl I like her to make me laugh and be spontaneous, look for jokes on the internet and slip one in once in a wile or talk about everyday stuff like how was your day, talk about you favorite interest or if you like any kind of sport talk about it, us guys tend to be interested in that kind of crap, if none of this works it might be because he's just boring cause after all it takes 2 to chat.

Just continue being friends with him and show that you care. He has to be able to figure out that you like him if you keep this up. Otherwise, this guy might be really clueless.

r u 11? if so i have advice for u. (im 11) we have a dance at the end of the school year and i had a best friend named michael. everyone had dates already and i decided 2 ask him. after discussing it w/my friend, i went up 2 him at recess and said, "can i talk 2 u for a minute?" we walked and i beat around the bush for awhile (good tactic) and then i said, "im just gonna come right out and say it. will u come 2 the dance w/me?" he replied (after thinking about it), "ok. but this conversation never happened." u can imagine how happy i was!? but basicly, ask 2 talk, beat around the bush, and then say a sentance that describes what u want (e.g., will you go out w/me? can i be ur girlfriend?). hope it works! and about the other girl, just leave her alone. if she gives u trouble, take it 2 the teacher. just dont mention your boyfriend!

I'm having that EXACT same problem right now with a guy I'm hanging out with.\n\nAre you friends with him?  does he call you?  Do you hang out together?  Or are you wanting to know whether or not he is interested in doing these things with you?  Because there is a big difference, at least to me.

i think its pretty cool when girls have there friends do this sort of stuff  for them. i know i don't mid it. i think the best thing to do would not to just say that your friend likes him. juts kinda be like so what do you think of this person. he will probably be like why do You ask. just be like idk just asking. he already knows by now that your friend like him so he will either ignore what your telling him because he doesn't like her or he will go talk to your Friend and stuff.          \n\nthat's how its happen to me before and if the whole thing turns out like i just wrote it down your friend is in good shape

Sounds like he does like you but he is too shy to make the first move. Next time you walk by say hey  see what he does. Don't shout it or anything just a subtle hey. And smile. Maybe strike up a conversation about football or something. That might get it started. The thing you need to do is let him know you like him too and get him to feel comfortable around you. Good luck!
