i like this boy who is a swimmer and he is a year older than me and he is really hot but the problem is, we have never once talked before. i'm pretty sure he doesn't even know who i am. i asked him to be my friend on facebook randomly, he goes to my school. he is not very social, and he has a twin brother who i hear is his best friend. sometimes i see him at lunch, he sits a table away from me with an asain boy (also a swimmer), and they barley talk. he is really shy. its really weird, we look at eachother sometimes and make eye contact, but thats all. we've never said hi. the people i sit with at lunch dont know i like him. i really want to say hi and talk to him or something but i dont know if he'll think im weird or something or i don't know. will he? is that weird to do? since we totally dont know eachother? were not in any classes together. i also wanna talk to him on facebook chat or something but i don't know what to say. any ideas? i saw him going into art one time and i'm in art too so i could be like hey i saw you holding a sketchbook, do you like art? but i don't know if that's weird to like randomly say. help please!!! anything will help.

Next time, smile at him, if it suits you to do so, and say hello.
See how he responds. If he blushes, he is probably just very shy. If he doesn't react and says nothing, it may be something more profound --something that has nothing to do with you. But that will be valuable information in its own right.
If it suits you to do so, ask him a question. Maybe something like, "Can I ask you something? Are you an artist? I ask because I've noticed you carry a sketchbook."
Do not feel "weird." There is nothing weird about being curious or interested. Or friendly for that matter.
If he snubs you, don't take it to heart. A negative response would be more a reflection of him than you. And it will tell you he's probably not the person you had hoped. But no matter his response, don't allow it to scare you away from other opportunities or relationships that may await you, but lack only a curious inquiry or a simple act of kindness to get the ball rolling.
There is no shame in reaching out to someone, even when it feels a little scary.
