ok so here is my problem. i'm not so good at talking to guys. well, scratch that. SOME guys. most guys i can just talk to like normal and laugh with, like i'm having a coversation with my brother. but other guys, cute ones in particular, i really have no idea how to talk to and i always seem to blush or stutter when i try to talk to them. it's really annoying and i don't know why i can't talk to them. my crush is one of the people i can't talk to. any advice?
loves2shop86 answered Monday May 1 2006, 8:57 pm: hey!! well this may be a bit obvious, but the reason you can't talk to them without blushing and stuttering is because you really LIKE them and you are afraid of messing up or saying the wrong thing. not much you can do other than continue to reassure yourself that you are a great person and that anyone who gets to talk to you is lucky! you want guys to like you for who you are, and you are showing them your true self when you talk to them! don't be nervous or afraid of "messing up" because those that like you will like you for exactly who you are. every time before you are about to talk to a cute guy, just calm yourself down, think about things that make you comfortable and happy, and remind yourself that you are who you are, and that's what you are showing this guy... and if he likes it great, and if not then there's many more guys! once you build up your self confidence, you will no longer have this problem! :) [ loves2shop86's advice column | Ask loves2shop86 A Question ]
herbivore answered Monday May 1 2006, 8:53 pm: hey. i have the exact same problem ;). but what i found that works is if you talk to them in a natural way. i know it may be scary... but you just have to be yourself. if you talk to them with the impression that you are scared or intimidated by them, then they may feel like you dont connect with eachother. you want to start of with small talk, like talk about something that you both are interested in like sports. you can make your way up from there. you can maybe get your crushes screen name and start talking to him them. but dont start off too strong until they know you better, you dont want to scare anyone off ;). remember, if you are comfortable talking with them then guys will be comfortable talking with you!! hope this helps!! :) ♥ ♥ ♥ [ herbivore's advice column | Ask herbivore A Question ]
