about

After a while you learn the subtle
difference between holding a hand and
chaining a soul, And you learn that
love doesnt mean leaning and company
doesnt mean security, And you begin to
learn that kisses arent contracts and
presents arent promises, And you
begin to accept your defeats with your
head up and your eyes open, with the
grace of an adult, not the grief of a
child And you learn to build all your
roads on today because tomorrows ground
is too uncertain for plans. After a while
you learn that even sunshine burns
if you get too much.
So plant your garden and decorate your
own soul, instead of waiting for someone
to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really are strong,
And you really do have worth.

I've just graduated from high school. There was this guy in one of my classes at school who i thought was pretty cute but he was a bit shy. We dont really know each other very well and have only talked a few times but i can tell he likes me. He talks to me online sometimes aswell. When we talk online its on myspace usually comments so everyone will read them. None of my friends know any of his friends or anything so it is really hard now that im not going to school. How can I get to know him better outside of school keeping in mind that we hardly even know each other so it would be really weird for me to ask him if he wants to hang out. :S

Please help.

How else can you get to know another person to a greater extent except by going out together? I know you hardly know each other but someone has to step up and make the first move! Why not be the brave one since his the coy type? If you feel awkward, try to organize a small party/gathering for your previous classmates to whom you shared a class with this guy. You know, just an excuse to have him over. Or, you know what? Just ask him out point-blank. Invite him to have coffee, dinner, lunch, whatever you feel adequate. "As you grow older, you'll find the only things you regret are the things that you didn't do". GO FOR IT NOW. The future is promised to no one.
