You just need to work on your confidence. You can't be afraid of what MIGHT happen. Chances are, you won't say something stupid, and if you do, he probably won't even think twice about it. If you act too shy around him, he might think you're stuck up or that you don't like him, and we definitely don't want that. So really, you've just gotta make yourself be outgoing. If nothing else, fake it at first. Even if you're freaking out inside, make yourself talk and appear confident. In time, once you see that you really won't say something stupid, it will come naturally. You don't have to go from being super shy to super flirty, start out slow. Everything will fall into place eventually.

Good luck =)

Just be yourself. You want him to fall in love with the outgoing and funny you, not the shy and nervous you. You're an amazing person, so don't be afraid to show it off. Some guys like it when girls say something stupid because they're nervous -- haha, I know it sounds messed up, but I read it in a magazine -- because it shows that the girl reaally likes them. But, if he's not into you, he won't notice. So next time you see him, gather up your courage and talk to him about something, anything! You'll be fine.

Good luck! <3
