Treat them as you would a friend of the same gender.  Truthfully, honestly, no flirting and acting like you are interested in them as more than a friend.  In other words, show them the same respect and dignity that you feel you deserve, and don't throw in the sexual stuff.

I used to be the same way. What helps is coming into contact with more guys in a friendly setting. If there are guys you see regularly at work or somewhere else, just be friendly and say "hi hows it going?" Dont approach it like you are going to marry the guy, just look at it as if he's a cool guy that you'd like to talk to more. Comfort only comes with practice, and remember...those little butterflies you get when talking to a guy you like arent always a bad thing;-)

Why do you have to tell him? Why not just be his friend to see how he responds to you that way? Then if it goes well you can slowly work into being more. Why does it have to be a hurry up deal? This way is a lot less scarier and you wont be risking making a fool of yourself.

well you might want to start talking to them if you arnt there friend but dont jump in to flirting cauz it will make it obviouis. then once u no them enough juss b like who u crushing on or interested in? then if he says noone y say o i no someone who might b interested.. then kidof hint but not so much he noes. have a friend tell him the next day. if you guys are friends write him a note you think of him more than a friend.

at this point, you have got to be strong gurl! its kinda hard getting a guy thats shy too, just like you... so, do anything that you think will get his attention... by just approaching him, you will get his attention.. tell him you want to be friends with him.. and when you guys do become friends, tell him you wanna get to know him more.. and you wanna hang out... if he does agree... go somewhere quiet... tell him that its hard for you to say this at this point, but tell him that you really like him a lot.. and then ask him what are his feelings and tell him to be honest... and if he tells you his true feelings, and tells you that he does also likes you, then you've done it gurl!! good for you! but if he doesnt like you, dont worry! you have so much more years ahead of you.. im sure you'll find a guy thats so much hotter and cuter than that guy... and he might even like you back too :)

Getting a guy to notice or like you involves the use of basic social skills. You should be honest, direct, pleasant, and reasonable. If you really like a guy, but you haven't really talked to him - you're dying to, but you're too scared - here are some tips to help you say hello. \n\nSteps \nGet a new look. Don't change who you are, just try something different. Try a new hairstyle, new clothes, etc. \n\nBe yourself. Everyone probably says this, but it's true! No guy wants a girl to pretend she is something she's not. \n\nDon't cuss. It turns guys off most of the time. \n\nSmile. Whether closed-mouth or open-mouth, do it. It'll say to everyone, "Wow, she's a nice person!" \n\nFlirt a little - not like crazy, but a little bit here and there. \n\nTry to be around him often, such as sitting near him. \nShow off a little when you're around your friends, but not a lot because then he might think you're just silly. \n\nTry to make lots of eye contact - and when you do, smile! (Guys often don't look at girls in the eyes, so looking into theirs when they're talking shows them that you are interested in them). \n\nGo up to him and talk to him. Try to get to know him a little by discussing things you have in common. \nTell him how you really feel about him once you get comfortable talking together. \n\nBe a brave person and stand up for who you are, and what you believe in. This will catch his attention, and his respect. \n\nTips \nDon't change yourself too much. \nA good way to start a conversation is to ask him a question - something about an interest you might have in common, or even what the time is. Make sure you hide your watch! \n\nSit close to him an touch him on his arm to show him you're interested. \n\nListen to him and don't interrupt him when he is talking. That makes them really annoyed and it's rude! \nAct confident but try not to seem stuck up. \n'Bad clothes' are those old pants you used for painting the fence and the sweatshirt with the pony on it. \n\nWarnings \nNo guy likes a person who is snobby. \n\nIf he tries to do anything you're not comfortable with, tell him that you are not ready for that stuff yet. If he's cool with that, great. If not, then he's not really the nice guy you thought he was. \n\nDon't wear bad clothes when you decide to be brave and walk up to your man. \n\nMake sure to brush your teeth! \nBe sure to have gum, breath mints, listerine strips, etc. around in case you need to freshen up quickly. \nDon't tell him lies. \n\nIf the guy is a jerk, but you find him attractive, don't let him take advantage of you. Find out more about him before you let things get too serious.

making friends with guys can be simple..\n\njust be urself..hang out wit some guy friends u can go along with..speak up more, especially when ur wit ur guy friends..have genuine interest in what they talk about..listen to them talk, even if u dun understand a s**t..\n\ntalk about what they like - soccer, football, cars, bikes..u dun need to understand what thing they are saying, but just have genuine interest in what u ask or listen..\n\nask them questions about themselves - guys like talking about themselves..ask them questions about what they are talking about - it shows u got interest in wad they are saying.. u can always say u dun understand even after they explain and they'll just understand that..but if u do understand, that mIgHt impress them and they wun mind u hanging out wit them..\n\ndo whatever is being urself, even if ur cracking lame (not too lame!) jokes but not infront of guys u barely know..

aw man try to understand why and talk this over with them, may be you are sending mixed signals, i have done that, but i am just friendly and others take it the wrong way. just tell them your true intentions and be nice, good friends are really hard to come by! friends rule!

ok i have been through the same thing just tell your friends you like him and if they judge you they are not really your friends \njust let him know how you feel it is very hard to bring your feelings out there in the open but at least he knows that you are strong enough to actually tell him that but just  first go up to him and tell him that you would like to be his friend and ask him if that is ok and then as soon as you guys become friends you will grow into a more deeper relationship tell him what is on your mind and also let him know if he is doing something wrong but that is the only help i can give you doll face good luck

just give him clues but dont tell him directly that u like him.  And start a conversation with youre friends and talk about how hes not to shaby looking, dont tell them compliments about him just tell them how he is a good guy to have around theyll soon start to look at difrent aspects of him and then they might think difrently about him

Don't worry about this guy you like.  If you think he is a jerk enough to reject you for what you look like, then he isn't worth your time.  You don't need to hear that "let's just be friends" line.  You're better than that.  You are who you are, and when the time is right, you'll know where you belong.  Keep your head up, and you'll be fine.  You don't need a man to complete you, anyway.

Just be you. I dont think that us ladies give guys enough credit as far as being able to see through fake or phonyness. But while being yourself, notice things that are important to him or that interest him. You can only learn what these things are by talking and interacting with them. Good Luck

By being straightforward.  Men in general and older men in particular are no nonsense, straightforward people.  If you want him, the way to get him is to look him straight in the eye and tell him in no uncertain terms that you like him as more than a friend, and you intend for your relationship to change to reflect that.

just continue offering a pure friendship. just be a true person to him by showing who you are without telling what you feel towards him. wait for the right time. it will come without saying any words. just wait and try to have fun with your other friends. then you will learn what exactly you feel for him. but if that special feeling remain, then you can take the risk. \n\ntelling him will be a big gamble to you, you may just simply loose him, or if he have a "feeling" for you, you will not find his sincerity for you will always think that he just "love" you for not offending you or hurting your feelings.\n\nthat's the hardest part of being a girl-you have to wait for the person you like to "approach" you but sad to say those people approaching you are just "ordinary people" for you. \n\nbut then you felt that bursting feeling can't be hold for awhile then - - tell him without putting down yourself.\n\nmake it simple on telling him, like, :i don't understand myself, "friend" but this thing is new to me - why i always  think of you, and sometimes i want to have more time from you... then smile and wait to his reaction.\n\nkeep your cool.
