I think this guy is really hot. He's in 11th grade and very preppy, I'm in 9th and well... average. We've never spoken or acknowledged each other, but I figured that it would be cool to become friends with him or make an attempt. Should I try to approach him to be FRIENDS ONLY (I don't want to date him. I mean he's really hot but it's no way possible.) but I'm not sure if he may be creeped out. If I should try to approach him, how should I do it? All of my friends say go and talk to him and become friends, so does my little sister, but I'm really shy and I'm scared that someone as hot as him might not want to be friends with someone as average as me. So I'll be "rejected" in a sense. Advice? Realise we've never talked, we have made eye contact before in the band-room so I can't say he doesn't know I exist haha. But yeah.

You'd be freaked out right? I know that sounds harsh but sometimes its good to get a bit of perspective! Therefore to save embarrassing yourself maybe just start smiling at him every so often and see what happens. Im not sure its such a great idea to walk right up to him but hey just smiling and stuff might lead him to come and talk to you! good luck [ craazylau's advice column | Ask craazylau A Question ]
xbebopchrisx answered Friday April 22 2005, 1:26 am: My advice to you is to go up and try to meet him. I know that no one likes to be rejected but it is a part of life and will happen to you in the future. However you don't know what will happen unless you try. He maybe very friendly and receptive to you and who knows what will happen. You have to get up the courage and try. I know I am just one guy and it’s just my opinion. But I personally like girls who are confident and if one came up to meet me to try to be friends I would defiantly give her a chance. You can do it! Just give it a chance. Good luck! Keep me posted about how it goes, you can AIM me anytime (even if it’s just to chat.) [ xbebopchrisx's advice column | Ask xbebopchrisx A Question ]

If he is with his buddies then thats probablly a good time because you would feel better. You never know if you might have a chance with him until you start talking to him. Ask him to hang out and stuff. x0 [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
