I like this boy and he is so nice to me. He talks to me sometimes and walks away from me. I only have one class with me and he talks to me and asks me questions or ask me for something. None of my friends know I like him. They think I like another boy which I stopped liking him. So I'm gonna tell them I don't like that boy anymore. The boy I like now isn't popular, which I don't care about but my friends think he is weird, perverted, and all that stuff. So I really don't want to tell them I like him. I don't think he is any of that and I think he is really sweet and cute. So I just don't know what to do. Also I am pretty shy so he is the one who comes up to me and talks to me. I usually only talk to people when they talk to me. So can anyone help me with this problem of mine and also how to talk the the guy. Thanks a whole lot! (Sorry it was long)

as for talking to him, think of him as just another person on just another day. next time you see him and get the chance to make conversation go for it. i know its not as easy as it sounds being shy and all but if hes as nice as you made him out to be you should be just fine. and still if you dont feel comfortable going up to him make an effort to keep conversation up when he comes to you, possibly even flirt a little. giving him hints that you like him may make him more open to be open with you if he likes you. and hopefully talking to him gets easier as time goes on.
good luck and i hope everything works out for you. [ amandaaababyy's advice column | Ask amandaaababyy A Question ]

They can't keep secrets when it comes to boys and who likes whom. If you tell them it would be asking for it as they could really louse things up. Your friends and what they think of this guy should have no bearing on you liking him. they won't be dating him but you would be.
You have to treat getting to know him like you would any other friend. It's no different except you may get a relationship out of it. Talk to him like you would a sibling, parent, teacher, friend and ask about his interests. Soon you'll find yourself in an instant conversation where movies, sports, entertainment etc will come up.
A more bolder approach would be to write down your IM, E-mail, Number and other info and ask him to call or chat with you online. If it doesn't than you'll know he's either scared or not into you. If you're having a party or hanging out with a group of people try inviting him.
You have an in with this guy because he's constantly approaching you. Show him you're interested, start flirting and see what occurs. If you want him bad enough you have to show him and think to hell with what anyone else thinks or says.
He's just a guy and you're just a girl. You have to treat talking to him like you would anyone else you know. Look him in the eyes and in your mind pretend that what you have to say will change his life and spit it out. Once you do you'll be fine. Go for broke and take the risk to get what you want.
