hey dude. might be a little late, but oh well. I have your same problem, X 5!! I'm a very friendly person, and there's like 10 other people in school who I know I could be best friends with if I could just hang out with them, but it seems impossible since you've never spoken one word to them, right? So try just that, say just 1 word, like "hey" "whatsup" , whatever. There are perverts out there who say "Who's that sick person looking at me, saying Hi?", but just try doing that, pretty soon 1 word changes to 2, and so on. good luck dude.

if he's in any of your classes, other activities, you see him at a party, etc. you should try & strike up a conversation with him. start w/ something you have in common, and ask him questions about himself (good way to get a guys attention). smile because its more friendly. just start talking to him and gradually maybe start hanging out or something. =] good luck hope i helped.

if you have some classes with him you can pair up with him and talk.. or maybe sit next to him in class one day and start talking. but if you dont have any classes with him then maybe you can smile at him in the hallways? or get his screename and IM him online and start a conversation online

If you have a class with him try and be partners with him. And if that doesnt work start talking to some of his friends and soon they will start bringing you around him and thats a sure way to get his attention. Good luck hope iv helped a little. Write back if you need any more help.

when you see him in the hallway say hi to him. Say what's up. It always starts a conversation and lets him notice that you want to talk and be friends.

When you guys start talking try to talk about things he likes or mutual topics like school... a stupid teacher you both like. Make sure you look in his eyes and say his name a few times when talking to him... i dont know but it makes people feel good.

Then you guys should become good friends eventually... hope I helped

I find that the easiest way to make friends is to find something you have in common with them.

If you share any common interests, that can be your starting point. Casually approach him, when you feel comfortable, and start up a conversation about something you know you can both talk about. Ask him questions and try to seem interested in what he's saying.
As you get to know eachother, you'll find that the conversation will just develop on it's own.

If all seemingly goes well, be bold and ask him if he would like to hang out with you sometime. Building a friendship takes time, but if you're persistent, it'll happen eventually.

Hope I helped somewhat..
Good luck =]
