Shy around the guy.


Question Posted Tuesday August 24 2004, 4:38 pm

I'm 'sort of' a shy person. Especially when it comes to the guy I like. : p
I don't even know if you can call it shy..I just get nervous around him and just mummble. Whaaaaaaaat can I do? I never have the confidence to tell him anything, and I never know what to talk about. Help? : ]

sometimes that happens just write him a note(s) asking and telling about things. After a while you might get to know him by the note and ask him out or the other way around

I know how you feel.. everytime i am around the guy i like i make a total fool of myself... i make myself look even stupider than i already am... have some of your friends be by you when you are around that certain someone you like.. than maybe you wont feel so shy.. and after u built up some self estem about talking 2 him without mumblein u wont have 2 have your friends by u anymore...

Oh my goodness, THANK YOU all so much. You've all really helped. I'm going to try! : ]

Also, I actually know what he is basically into. I actually see him every day, since we're in cross country and everything. I guess I could just talk to him about running and stuff like it..

find out what his interests are. if he has some of the same ones that you do, then it shouldn't be nerve-racking to carry on a conversation with him talking about something that interests you as well as him. just make sure that you're confident when you do this, and try not to mumble. make it so he never would have guessed that you were nervous.

i wuz exactly in yur position once. The thing is...jus be yurself! Get to know him more so that you'll feel comftable bein around him. And jus look at him as a friend, NoT as yur crush. That way, you'll probably feel more relaxed around him. Hope i helped!

I think you should let him do most of the talking,but when a topic comes up that he says start talking about it, just pretend that he is your best friend and talk to him don't be nervous,or talk about things that you know he likes like maybe sports or something like that.just be yourself!: )

thankz

awwwwwwwww you must really like him!
Well thats ok cause pretty much every girl gets that way!
i mean i have already felt that way!
So basiclly just when u see him think of him as a friend even though u may really like him!
but dont think that!
hope i helped!

Hey, I'm a shy person to. I know where your comming from. I mummble to around anyone that I dont know that well. You can talk about things that happened that day, or sports. It's back to school time I'm sure theres something to talk about, like how your summer went!

maybe you should get to know him more. I mean it sounds like you dont feel comfortable just having a normal convo with him because you dont know what to say (which I can totally relate to!) Maybe if you had something you know to talk about then you wouldnt be mumbling so much... like a football game or a party that just happened? If that doesnt work then get his sn and talk to him on aim. Then you cant mumble and you can get to know him better! So when you see him in person you have an idea of what to talk about!
plz rate me

Umm, you have to be confident in yourself. Also, just be yourself because guys like that. When you're talking to him, just talk about stuff you both like I guess. Sorry if this isn't help but its hard for me to think of things to talk about lol. Don't worry, when your are talking to him, things will pop into your head. Hope I helped and good luck :)

Talk to other ppl, guys, and start to get your confidence. Talk to him, just small talk; hi in the hallway, whats up as you walk past him in the classroom, just the basics. As you talk to him more, you get bolder without really tring!

Hope i helped- keep me updated as u lose the shy

alright. shyness is genetics really so you can't just get over it. you can contain it and work through it. take baby steps. start by just waving and saying hi as you pass in the hall. then make small talk and say stuff like, "gee that math test was hard" or like "God its cold out!" and stuff like that. later, ask him to study with you. talk about social events, world events, sports, SPORTS, and stuff like that. with the olympics on, he's gotta be watching that.
