I like this boy called Daniel, but I don’t know what to do! Today in PE my friends were saying, "Let’s call Lauren's (my) crush Daz, as a code name. As in Daniel" (they have these sad code names for the boys they fancy, like carrot and cabbage). I didn't tell them that I fancied him, but they must know, and plus in art, one of them asked if I fancied Dan. I shook my head but I was smiling a bit so I guess they knew =( I'm really scared they'll tell him! he said he liked my drawing in art, and that it was better than his, and he kept touching my foot with his foot under the desk too. and my friend was making fun of me, and he stuck up for me, then he said "I'm only defending Lauren" when my mate asked why. that was a few days ago, and now he's just ignoring me (I think he was looking at me, but I was scared I would start blushing if I looked at him, so I guess I'm ignoring him too) I'm real shy + ugly lol so I don’t know what to do! I'd love to go out with him but I'm scared my friends would laugh because they always fancy popular, 'hard' boys who get into fights. Dan is really sweet and mature. and plus he probably doesn’t even like me =/ any easy tips on flirting for SHY people? 'Cos I’m not good at flirting lol =\ please help? Thanks =)
craazylau answered Saturday March 19 2005, 10:03 am: Ah bless you! OK just start off small- give him little smiles every so often, and if you feel him looking at you, don't look down (I know its hard!) but loook at him even if its really quickly. Hopefully he'll notice this body language and will start up a conversation which you should definitely join in with. If you feel yourself blushing DONT WORRY just carry on i bet he'll think its really sweet! As for what your friends think who cares?? You sound loads more mature than they are anyway- they'll soon grow out of the whole i love hard boys phase. Also it sounds to me as if Dan does quite like you- stop being so down on yourself!! hope it goes well. [ craazylau's advice column | Ask craazylau A Question ]
karenR answered Friday March 18 2005, 11:37 pm: It sounds to me as if this guy likes you. Strike up a conversation about his drawing or something.I wouldn't worry about the flirtting.
Sounds like your friends are a bit jealous. So, ignore their opinions.And don't give them ant details should you talk to and/or go out with this guy.No sense in giving them fuel for gossip or teasing you. [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

kris1448 answered Friday March 18 2005, 7:19 pm: i think you should try to make the first move. a lot of guys are too shy to make the first move and feel much more comfortable if the girls does. don't worry what anyone thinks either. who cares! you're your own person. and about your friends. don't worry about them. they're probably just jealous of him stickin up for you. they just sound immature. hope i helped! tell me how everything works out!

katkrazy answered Friday March 18 2005, 6:57 pm: I think you should try and make the first move. Maybe he's also too shy and he likes you too!!

3__oNLyiNadReaM__3 answered Friday March 18 2005, 6:44 pm: Who cares about what your friends think?They sound really immature. Just keep flirting with him and don't care what those girls say!Another thing, have some self confidence in you..I'm positive you arent ugly=)
SimplyMe answered Friday March 18 2005, 6:11 pm: Your friends sound really immature..I mean come on..they only go for the popular guys? They'll grow up eventually..anyway..I'd make a move on ths Dan kid soon...and it sounds like he does like you and is probaly in the same situation as you are, like scared of what will happen I guess..i mean come on..he was playing footsie's with you..flirting for shy people..hmm..when he flirts, just flirt back a little bit..this way you're not going overboard and you dont have to start it.. when he looks at you just smile, it will give him the impression you like him..
redxroses answered Friday March 18 2005, 5:54 pm: I'm sorry but I don't have advice for shy girls on flirting, but I did read your whole thing and I think that Daniel might actually like you! You shouldn't care what your friends say because it's very immature to only like the 'popular' boys. A sweet guy is way better than someone who likes fights. I think you should break out of your shell, but even if you don't, I think you have a chance with Daniel. =D That's just my thoughts. Good luck. =D [ redxroses's advice column | Ask redxroses A Question ]
