I totally know what you mean, its hard to be the one to walk up to someone and talk to them, and get them to notice you and everything. I know this may sound a little stalkerish, but it worked for me. Find out by either talking to him, or his friends or something, and see what he really likes, find out what you two have in common, I noticed guys really like, down to earth girls they can talk to with things they each have in common with eachother. I don't know who he is, or what he likes, so I can't exactly give you all the information.
But say if he's into rock music and skate boarding, maybe you could listen to some of the music he does, or ask him about it. Maybe he could teach you to skateboard once you get close. For him to notice you, you could just smile a lot and be really really friendly. But not too fake looking. And make sure he sees you at least 5 times a day. Then he'll maybe walk up to you. Its okay though, because I really suck at flirting, and you don't even really have to "Flirt" the first few times. Just make sure he sees you as a relaxed nice girl to talk to. I really hope it works out for you! :D [ volleyballgamer's advice column | Ask volleyballgamer A Question ]

and when the conversation dies down, simply wait a couple of minutes of silence and just say "wow, we're so exciting" that always creates a lighter mood. Or just make a comment, then it could turn into a conversation. [ TheAnnie's advice column | Ask TheAnnie A Question ]
Ice232 answered Monday April 28 2008, 5:29 pm: Well, flirting is something that really has to be natural. If you try to force it then it'll just seem awkward and may scare him away. If you want to get him to notice you then the first thing you should always try is just being yourself around him. Don't be timid or shy around him, you have to have confidence in yourself for other people to notice you. If you don't really want to try the just being yourself thing then do something to grab his attention. If your main goal is you want him to notice you and get to know him well then why not go ask him if he wants to have lunch with you or something like that. Just try to set up a situation where you two would be able to talk and relax around each other. If you want to get really into you could even make him a lunch I suppose. Of course you could always just go right out there and ask him out. If you could do that then you'd be able to get him to yourself for a while and learn a little bit more about him while your at it. One last thing, if you want him to get to know you, then the main thing is just let him know in one way or another that you want to get to know him. Since you said he's not shy he may even take over and start leading things along. [ Ice232's advice column | Ask Ice232 A Question ]
