Question Posted Friday September 21 2007, 10:34 pm
okay i have this guy in my class. i like him he is really cute funny and respects girls which is really hard to find these days. anyway all the time in class me and him happen to look up at each other at the same time almost EVERY time and it really bothers me because i don't know if he is staring because he notices me staring or if he is just staring becasue he wants to. we usually hold it for a few seconds and both look down and start working again. he is a sophmore and is really outgoing and im a freshman really shy and i don't talk to many people. i know one of his friends likes me but i don't think that is why he is looking at me. He does it everyday and its making me nervous i don't know what to think about it. by the way i heven't talked to him at all before. i wouldtalk to him but i get really nervous and butterflys and i just chicken out because i don't know what to say. i justwanted some advice on what you think is happening in class.
Forget about your butterflies and just talk to him. It seems like, however awkward this may be, that he will really appreciate you for it. There is no way you can really screw up an encounter like this unless you don't go for it, a simple hi is okay, or if you are so inclined "were you checking me out?" or just say something about what's going on in the class so he can give his own opinion. Try waiting till the class is over and, as people start to trickle out, start filing out of class by his side. You can make it look like it just took you this exact amount of time to pack up your books naturally that coincidentally makes you leave the class at the exact same time that he does. Or, you could just walk up to him during a work period, or before class and start up a conversation. If he looks at you as much as you say he does, he'll love it that you're talking to him. Even if what you say doesn't make sense or isn't that witty, you have said something, and have broken the ice.
