I am 20/male in college. In one of my classes there is a girl that I like that sits across the room. Every once and awhile we will make eye contact for a few seconds but neither of us really smile. So how can I tell if she's interested or not? And how can I approach her if we sit on opposite sides of the room? I think we are both really shy and might just be in some sort of standoff or something.
Next time your eyes connect, smile! If she smiles back, a real genuine smile and not a forced one in politeness, she might just be attracted to you.
If so, wait for her after class (when she is away from her friends) and strike up a conversation. If that goes well, ask her out for coffee and maybe to review notes. Get a cell phone number, and your in!
Or if you'd like to know a little more about her first, ask around or do a search and see if she has a myspace or facebook. Pretty much everyone does, and its a good way to get some background information.
But be sure she doesn't have a boyfriend or anything, first :)
