M/18. Me and my best friend talk on messenger all the time and we both have talked about how we have feelings for each other. Before we knew how we felt about each other, I could talk to her all day until my face turned blue. But now, I feel like I need to impress her since we will be starting something soon. So now whenever I am with her, it seems like I can't think of anything to say. It was so much easier when we were just best friends to get something out of my mouth. It's even getting more difficult on messenger. I don't know how to fix it. Somebody help me.

Little_Miss_Cant_Be_Wrong answered Saturday March 5 2005, 5:49 pm: You really don't need to try and impress this girl. It seems like you already won her over by being yourself. She likes you for who you are, which is awesome. So just act normal! If you two were that comfortable around each other before and could talk to each other forever, it shouldn't be that hard to be able to return to that comfort level and get over the awkwardness. Just be yourself! If you still can't think of anything to say, think of some thought-provoking topics that will make conversation a little easier. Try something like, 'Did you hear about (insert current event or something)? What do you think about that?' Just something like that to get conversation rolling. It seems like you already got the hard part accomplished...she likes you! Now just relax and let things take their course. Good luck!

That is not to say you can't do nice things for her, lets just not go overboard!She will think you are up to something for sure.
What kind of things did you talk about before? Do it again. Things might be a little awkward at first but you will be okay.You are already friends so just move slow and don't think you have to jump right into being REALLY serious.That is making you too nervous isn't it?
Continue to be the guy you've always been with her and everything else will come with time.Good luck! [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

I mean, just becuz you and her have a thing going on now doesnt mean that you cant talk to her the same way. Who knows, maybe you and her were better as friends....but thats just my opinion. Try to stay confident when you are talking to her and then you will be comfortable with her again, she's not asking you to impress her she's asking you to (basically) be there for her and he her "boyfriend," so trying to impress people doesnt help.....sometimes it only makes things worse if you try too hard(dont take that the wrong way tho). Just be yourself....i think thats what she likes about you.
TeenageCupid answered Friday March 4 2005, 6:23 am: hey,
Well, first of all, I dont think you should try to impress her, she already LIKES you, right?
You shouldnt think of her as a girl you have feelings for, think of her as you brest friend, open up to her, dont think,just speak from your heart. I know its hard, the guy in my school only says "hi", kinda frustrating, so your girl must be frustrated too since you dont talk!
If you really want to impress her, girls like unpredictable guys, surprise her with a rose, a necklace, ring, anything! And use catch phrases, if its a rose "I just wanted to show this rose true beauty" for example
