What can I do to get the nerve to talk to this boy?

just think of it this way...if he came up to you and said hey, you'd say hey back right? there is no harm in saying hey? i mean you talk online, why not in person? and ask questions, i mean you have the simple ones like..."whats up?", "what did you do today?", "how was school?", "what are you gonna do for the weekend?" they love it when you are interested in them...later on you get into "what sports do you do?" and so on, just do whatever have no regrets, we're young this will all blow over when we're older and we'll forget about this, have fun.

If you can't put yourself out there, ask a friend, but remember not to shoot the messenger if you don't like the answer.  Is this boy a part of your group of friends and you get the feeling he likes you back?  Go ask him on your own!!!  Is this boy even aware of you?  Go ask him on your own!!  What have you got to lose?  If you can do this, you can do anything, start now!

Sweetie, be patient.  Do not approach him anymore.  Something like this happened to me before but after he told me no I left him alone.  He likes the attention you are giving him.  Just sit back and watch, because if you stop trying to talk to him, he will want you.  Watch this will work and even if it doesn't there is more fish in the sea and you better start fishing.  This boy is gonna miss a good thing if he keeps acting like this

If the boy stares at you more than other girsl he is trying to get you to notice him.  Next time you catch his eye go sit down next to him and start up a conversation about school.\n\nIf this works you can move the conversation  to the fun things you like to do and whether you should go out together.

Umm talk to him first...ask why is there no conversation at school? If he's ashamed of you then it's probaly going to end because of that later down the line...if he has a dumb answer or doesn't answer then definately. he should be history

hey there! i've passed through this stage too! well, it really depends on the boy. if u and the boy are just mere acquaintances, try getting to know him better by coming up or stopping by his house to chat, or maybe invite him to parties, beach and mall hang-outs...you know, things that can bring u closer.\nnow, if u are already close to each other, then maybe try at first showing sweet gestures--in short, flirting, then if he responses sweetly too, then u can go to the next move: written flirting..,, then maybe when u think it is about time and u cannot keep it any longer, u should tell him, and u might get the same response... :) gud luck!

I know how you feel. I've been there. The best thing you can do is go up to him and start a casual conversation.  It doesn't have to be anything gushy. It can simply be about music, movies/tv shows, or any other interest you may have in common with him.  Do you know anything about him?  I know it's scary but you soon get use to it.  I use to have a major problem like that. feeling scared of rejection. Be yourself.  There is no point in him noticing you if it's not you.  Plus, trying to be someone else is very uncomfortable and you end up worrying even more.  As I said, trust me i know.  Walk up to him.  Find something appropiate and causaul for the circumstance. Is it at school?/work?/anywhere else. Do you know what kind of music he likes? If you don't, ask him.  Maybe you'll find a common interest. Just say,"Hey! What's up! So what kind of music do you like?"

Do you like him? You need to start talking to him and be friends. Since I am shy, I would get one of my friends who know him to introduce him to me when we are all together. You could also approach him and introduce yourself as a friend of one of your friends. Find a common interest (sports, activities) and start up a conversation. This should get you guys talking, and then you can move further. Good luck!

Start off with, "hi" and let it go from there.  You can't force chemistry, you either got it or don't got it. If you don't have it, then you have to think to yourself, "he's not good enough for me cause he can't even talk to me." If he can't talk to you and he doesn't have anything in common with you, then he must be boring.

well if he goes to your church then your chances go up! first of all maybe he knows you but he just cant find a way to talk to you. well here's my piece of advice.. if u catch him alone, without looking flirtish, look if he has a watch then ask what time is it, or if u see him reading or holding something about a sport/game or anything you have been interested for the very first place, for example if he's holding a CD of a band u love, why not try to ask him about it, then he would response, then say your name and ask him what's his name (just to be friendly) and just find things to talk about! then he would get to know you. believe me, nobody made a rule about the boys making first move. just do it or u lose ur chance! trust me, this works.

Do not be afraid to talk to him even if you are shy.\nHe will like you regardless of your shyness if you just talk to him.

oh lord. I know what you mean. been there done that. and let me tell you girl.. unfortunately.. it's always going to be awkward at first. there's no escaping it really. I mean you can make a list of things to talk about.. and though it is quite helpful.. it's not going to make that anxious feeling in your stomach go away. but that's the beauty of conversation. it's like writing an essay or a story.. once you get started it's easy as pie. keep in mind that the guy is prolly nervous himself, but you're never going to get to know anyone by avoiding them. just be chill.. try not to show you're a lil scared (I know yeah right huh? lol) and keep that list near by. \n\nhope I've been helpful!

it depends on situation,that boy himself and it depends a lot on the girl!i would probably be polite and response to his effort to start a communication.if he wants sth else,but that,that would depend on that talk...how it develops,do we have any topics in common...

find something that you both have in common and that you know you can talk about for long periods of time w/ out being/ sounding weird. start a conversation and work your way up. it all takes time. once you think that youre ready, take things to the next level with him all you have to do is pre- think things through before you talk to him and youre confidence will boost up.

So, are you in his school right now? If you are then why do you expect him to start talking to you, not you?\nHe could probably stop saying even "Hi" to you when you stopped doing it and he felt like he is getting on your nerves.\n\nJust say "Hi" to him when you see him. Do it a few times and if then he still will seem cold then just ask him some time, just stop him in the corridor and say"Hey, why don't you talk to me anymore?" \n\nThat should put him in situation where he must answer and go from there. He may start talking to you again or say why he stopped. If after that he will be cold to you then just leave him alone, he is gone and possibly just a type of a guy who goes after every pretty girl but loses interest fast if nothing happens.\n\nGood luck and don't feel embarassed to say "Hi" to him, its just a "hi" at the end of the day. How many times you say that to everyone else ;), 1 more won't hurt, he is not SO special or from another planet ;)\n\nIf you from another school then ask someone where he lives and just may be pass by there some time, and may be you will bump into him and there is situation 1 on 1 and he will be forced to talk to you, IF YOU  start talk to him, but don't let him run away. \n\nGl and Best of Luck, Wolfy.
