Fallen for a guy I hardly know?


Question Posted Thursday January 25 2007, 6:12 pm

This is a long story, but I could use the help. First of all - when I like a guy, I like him a LOT, I never stop thinking about him.

In this case, I met this boy John from my friend Sean. A couple months ago at a football game I was talking to Sean and then John came up to talk to both of us, and I had never met him before. He was absolutely the best guy I've ever met - I swear! A simple 5 minute conversation and he was already one of my favorite people (we hardly even talked just between us though, we were all kind of joking around). I didn't like him yet though. I just thought he was really cool.

So since then it's just been every time we see each other in the halls at school we'd wave or say hi. He isn't in any of my classes and he is a year older than me. Soon after that football game though I realized that I had felt completely comfortable talking to him right away. I am usually pretty shy when it comes to new people. It was amazing how comfortable I was with him, like I'd known him forever, and the more I thought about it, the more I liked him. Now I think he's just the most adorable guy ever. I've talked to one of my good guy friends who knew him a few years ago and he can't say anything bad about John. Apparently he was one of the coolest guys he ever met also.

Recently I talked to another one of my guy friends, Brian, and he said he remembers one time around the week of that football game, he was at a swim meet with John. Brian texted his friend that he was mad at him because he almost made a move (on his girlfriend) but his friend ruined it. John read it and said "Who (my name)??", then Brian said no, and John said "She's pretty hot eh?" All according to what Brian told me. I flipped when I heard it lol.

Well, so far, it's been hi in the halls for the past 2 1/2 months or so. I don't want this to just fizzle out, but I don't want to directly tell him we need to hang out because I hardly know him and I never have the chance to talk to him since we only see each other in the halls. John also requested me on myspace a while ago. I asked if it was the John I met at the football game and said something he had brought up at the game that was funny. He replied with "yea it is, i like how thats the only thing you know about me?" Would that be like an invitation to get to know him? That's what I took it as but I just told him I knew something else about him just because it was obvious from his myspace, lol.

Brian said he would try to talk to him soon and maybe that would help, but I just want to know if you have any suggestions as to how I could get John to notice me? Specifics? I am a pretty bad conversationalist but I can follow instructions well haha.

Thanks!

Well, you are asking a bad conversationalist as to how to help you be a better one. :D

I can tell you that it seems obvious to me that he wants to get to know you better. So, yes, I would say that was an invite.

I can also tell you that you are already noticed.

You say you know things about him from his myspace? Try to use those things to strike a conversation with him. If he posts things about his hobbies, or things he likes to do, ask him about it. You say you had an easy time talking to him at the game, so really you just need something to start a conversation with him. Something to get the ball rolling, so to speak.

Sorry I can't give much in the way of instructions, but I'm not much of a talker myself.
