I think that this guy that rides my bus is attracted to me and he is really sweet. I've never had a boyfriend before so I don't know what to expect. Plus, he happens to be my friends brother aswell. He always stare at me and turns away when i look, and when he thinks I'm not looking he stares again. Anyways recently i have admitted that I really do like him. I told my friend that I liked her brother. How do i get to know him better as a friend first without sounding like an idiot? And once I am friends with him how can I get him to take that step forward with me? I'm just trying to figure out what I need to do to see if he's into me or not? Please help. I'm just trying to gain the experience that I don't have, because I have never had a boyfriend before. Again, Please help me! .

If you like the band start a conversation about that. Just things like that to get started. Try to sit near him on the bus. Next time you see him looking at you say hi and smile. I don't recommend flirting unless your good at it. Some girls are just naturals and some aren't. So, if it comes easy to you go ahead, otherwise just stick to smiles.
Once you get his attention you can mention a movie you would really like to see, or dance you would like to go to...If only you had a date! Then maybe he'll get the hint.
Basically you just have to be in places where he's going to see you. On the bus, in classes, at lunch...you get the picture. Good luck :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
