I just got a job at a little store about a week ago and its my first job ever. (I'm 15) I basically stand at a cash register all day. But there's this guy who works there too, and he's about my age, and he's really great. I think I'm kind of falling for him, which isn't good, I don't think. I'm not very pretty, I'm super clumsy, I'm not particularly fun or interesting, and I have a lot of family problems and stuff that makes it very hard to open up to people. So basically, he's never gonna like me. I'm trying really hard to stop crushing on him, but it's kind of near-impossible, you know?

Guys really are turned on when a girl has a lot of confidence and apporaches him. So if you go up to him with a warm smile its good. Then just talk to him, during a lunch break, whenever. Be flirty and outgoing, and that will impress him. Im totally clumsy and falling all the time and such, but people think its kinda cute haha. I personally dont see why, but I'm also outgoing, so I'm not like the shy girl whos drops things, and theres a huge difference between those; do you understand? Also, you don't have to open up to him, especially if you don't know him. Just do small talk, like what school do you go to, summper plans ,etc, and forget about your family problems. That stays at home, not at work.
Good luck I believe you can get him to like you! :) [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

well first off let me say, dont say that he wouldnt like you! because... its the inside that counts... who know maybe he finds your clumsiness cute =]...if he's a g0od guy, your l0oks wont count, because then thats just being shallow... and as far as opening up... its okay, im sure he'd understand... to trust someone is to let them in because they earned it...not just because theyre your boyfriend and so on...buuuuuuuuuuuuut...if you want to stop crushing on him i think the only way to do that is to confirm he doesnt like you...take a stab at it... ask him... bravery doesnt hurt... the worst tht can happen is him saying no i dont like you... and im sure thinqs would qo back to normal...it is workplace... g0od luck!
