Shy Boy


Question Posted Saturday December 22 2007, 6:43 pm


ok, u answered my Q about the boy who moved closer to me at the convo. When we get back from Christmas Break o Jan 3. I will really hard to get the courage to talk to him. Ok there are more oarts to the story. I've asked around to find some info about him. First off I will say I am in no way judgemntal. A lot of people have told me he is gay. It is so mean how they descirbe him. Yeah, Ryan's a fag..." They said he has never had a girlfriend, which is good fo me and bad. Good because compared to no one i'm pretty good plus i'm giving him the time of day. Bad because he may be gay or too shy to ask me out if we became friends. I will also add that he comes from a well off family and is a super-genius. I have also heard he crys a lot and has been picked on. He is very shy and sometimes sits alone at lunch. He sits with the populars, but isn't really included, know what i mean. So what i'm asking is what do you think of this situtation a.k.a what so i do? sorry it is so long!

Sorry I took a while to answer. I didn't see a question in my inbox :S
Anyway;
What you hear about him being "gay" may not be true at all. It might just be peoples lame way of describing him, like you say. So it would be good if you could find out for sure, whether that being you getting to know him and finding out yourself, or hearing it from people who actually 100% know.
Also, if he is alone some of the time, or isn't really included, you should ask him if you can sit with him, or if he wants to join you and your friends. I know it's nerve racking to ask, but it's such a nice gesture if you can do it. If I were in your position, I would definitely pluck up the courage to talk to him and get to know him, especially since he gets picked on. He probably wants all the friends he can (and more) at the moment. You can start off by saying hi one day.. and afterwards, ask him to join you for lunch - that way, it won't be as weird because you would have at least spoke to him before (even if it was only saying hi). Friendships and possibly more are bound to build from that point.

Also, if he has any online accounts (such as myspace etc), it could be worth talking to him on there first, so it won't be as "scary" when you talk to him in real life.
