My school has a soccer academy program, the guys in the program take their own bus afterschool.
A few weeks ago myself and a friend were standing waiting for a ride when one of the soccer guys (who I know likes me) came up and said Dan liked me a lot. I said I didn't know who he was, although at that time I had seen Dan around once or twice. A few minutes later the soccer guys began yelling from their bus for me to come over and talk to Dan but I didn't.
For the next few days after the soccer guys kept talking about me as I walked past them in the hall (we have lockers in the same hall at opposite ends). However, I still didn't talk to Dan.
Ever since then I have noticed Dan's friends hit him (to make him notice) every single time when I walk by and Dan always pretends like his friends didn't do anything.
On Tuesday one of Dan's best friends told me he was 'like in love with me and always talks about me' but I have never actually talked to Dan in my life. We don't have any classes together.
I would really like to talk to Dan, or get him to talk to me. If we don't have any classes together and I previously acted like I didn't know who he was, what can I do?
It's really hard to just walk up and start talking to someone, but inyour situation you kind of have to do that. Maybe you could just go to him and say, "Hey, I'm (your name), I've heard a lot about you and I thought maybe I could just get to know you myself instead of listening to the rumors" or something like that. You have to have something to say to start out a conversation and it could work.
Flirting from afar would be when you flash a smile or wink as you walk by him or play shoving maybe. Saying hi could work too.

Once he starts to reciprocate, try *slightly* tiliting your head batting your eyelashes *once*. Doing it multiple times makes you look kind of stupid. After three eyelash-batting occassions (lol), if he doesn't have the courage to ask you out, and he still likes you, you may want to approch him on your own. Just a simple "Hi, how's your day?" can give him a boost of confidence to ask you out on a date. Good luck =) [ xoIDOLox's advice column | Ask xoIDOLox A Question ]
