I really like this guy, but he is always talking to his friends and I have only had a conversation with him a couple times! I am also really shy and don't like going up to his group because I feel intimidated by it. What should I do? By the way I am a female and 13 and liked him for a year.

Do you wanna continue like that all ya life? At 13 it will be easier for you to fight shyness than when you are 18. I wanna put it to you as the first option. If the crush is serious, deep in you, you will find that courage and walk up to him no matter how many people are with him. Love can make us do things we ordinarily wouldn't have done so let your crush on him act as a spur for you to overcome shyness.
If you still feel you can't overcome shyness for now, then write a small note telling him you wanna talk to him alone, then find a way to pass it to him. You can have a venue pre-arranged. On the alternative get a friend you trust to help you draw his attention to you.
Finally do take your studies serious. [ henrydgreat's advice column | Ask henrydgreat A Question ]

Tell him that you've enjoyed talking to him the few times you did and would like to do so more but that you don't like to do so with all his friends around. If he tries to talk you into joining the group, then honesty is going to be the best thing here, let him know you're the shy type and don't handle groups of people as well as one on one so you're wondering if you can trade cell numbers and talk at other times when he's alone.
