Question Posted Tuesday September 26 2006, 4:47 pm
Hey I really like this guy lets call him "T" ok well T is really sweet has beautiful blue eyes and totally doesnt know i exist. I have a twin brother who is in one of his classes and i always see him in the hall and we sometimes have eye contact and smile but i wouldnt call it flirting. So he know that im Kevins (my brother) twin but he doesnt know my name or anything about me. I know alot about him from my brother but my brother doesnt want to be involved in this. Ive helped him with someting in the class once but we didnt really talk. I dont really have guts to talk to him but I dont know what to do!!!! HELP!!!!!! The sadie hawkins dance is coming up but im way to nerves to ask him what should i do. Thanks!!!

I remember having this exact situation when I was in High School. The guy's name even started with T and he had the most incredible blue eyes. He also had perfect blond hair.
Anyway, Sadie Hawkins dance came up. I was so nervous about asking him, but I had friends who practically forced me to. So, I just gave in and asked, despite my nerves.
He said yes.
So, just ask him. What is the worst that can happen? He could say no, and then it is done for now and you won't be a nervous wreck anymore. Or, he could say yes and you will be relieved and glad you asked. Either way, it isn't as terrifying as it feels right now. Once it is done, it is done. Just get it out. Even if you have to just blurt it out when you see him. That works too, btw, and is said before you know it. And somehow, I've found that I always got a good answer from it :) [ blwinteler's advice column | Ask blwinteler A Question ]
Volleyball2150 answered Tuesday September 26 2006, 9:58 pm: what helps people when they are nervous around somebody is by writing them an email, IM, or note. Don't get ahead of yourself and have your first Email/IM/note asking him to the dance... he'll probably say no right away. First start off with something simple like ask him "what's the lunch today?" when he answers smile at him and say "oh, okay! Thanks!" and just walk away. I know it may seem scary, but its now or never. Ask your brother if he can invite "t" over so then you can see him. When he comes, answer the door and pretend like you didn't expect him. So you can act all like "oh! Hi!" and then fix your hair. He'll get the point that you like him. When you are actually able to go up to him and talk to him in a conversation, just ask him to the dance. What's the worst thing that can happen... him saying no! that's all. Just be like "hey T, are you excited for the sadie hawkins dance?" He replies "yes" "cool, me too... I was wondering if you wanted to go with me." "yeah sure" If he says no... just say "oh, ok well maybe we'll see each other there." and smile and walk away. Dont get all upset and start crying, just be nice and friendly.

Eventually bring up the subject of the dance. See if he's going with anyone & if not.. ask him if he'd like to go with you. [ Crystal8's advice column | Ask Crystal8 A Question ]
crissyx3 answered Tuesday September 26 2006, 5:53 pm: My advice is to go up to him and chat him up. Get to know him a bit, see what he likes. I know this sounds like what everyone TELLS you to do and it won't work but TRUST ME it will. =]. it'll break the ice a bit. and he is probably just as nervous as you are. when you get to know him a bit and are pretty good friends casually say 'yea you know that sadie hawkins dance coming up? yea i dont have a date yet but i thought it would be lots of fun to go together what do you say?'. chances are if you two hit it off well, he most likely will be thrilled to go with you. i mean who wouldnt ;]. but if there is a slight chance he rejects you then just play it off and say 'oh well thats ohkay see you around' and give a smile.
Hope this helps! Good luck sweetie;; xx [ crissyx3's advice column | Ask crissyx3 A Question ]
