I am 16/f. I have seen this guy around my school for about two weeks now and hes really cute! But I never know what to say to him. He's mostly always with his friends. And I know like none of them well enough to say "hey hook me with me up with your friend". So I was just wondering what are some clever ways to talk to him and what are some good converstations starters knowing nothing about each other? How should I get to know him? This is also kind of urgent he's a senior so I have 3 months to get to know him. I know that's a lot of time to most people but I'm really shy so I need time to just work up enough courage to say something to him.
Additional info, added Monday March 12 2007, 12:25 am: One thing I forgot to add is I don't have any classes with him.. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?

Or you can try stalking him (hahaha) so that you run into him in place where he isnt with all of his friends (like afterschool, you can coincidentaly be walking by his car, or something like that).
My last idea would be to ask for something like a pencil, like if you run into him right before a class or something, ask to borrow a pencil or somethikng like that, that way you have an excuse to talk to him again when you return whatever it is that you borrowed and you can make small talk or something. Or you can try to track down a mutual friend, someone that could introduce you guys.
DearAbby92 answered Sunday March 11 2007, 11:33 pm: Do some research. Find out what he's into or something you have in common. If he's in a club, join it. If he plays sports, go to practices and games. Try to sit near him whenever you can, and make jokes about whats going on to break the ice. Or see if you have any friends who know him or his friends, and try to get a big group togehter. Be friendly and funny. Ask casual questions, let him know your interested but not stalker-ish. Or get his screen name from a friend, and start with, Oh Hey, I know your friend so and so and thought i'd say hi, etc.
