How to stop overthinking interacting with my crush
Question Posted Friday October 31 2014, 1:29 am
I'll be the first to admit, I am horrible talking to guys I'm interested. Its like I can't get out of my own head and over think every single interaction. It's terrible. But with this new guy I like, will call him *Eric,*I want to not think so much. He is in two of my classes, and I just recently started being interested because he did a presentation in my one of our class and I was oh wow your really cute. So here we are. We haven't spoken at all, he knows my name, because I had to do a presentation too. Um, but that's about it, we have no interaction at all. So, I really want to talk to him, but I don't even know what to say. Like I said, I over think everything, its huge fault of mine, I just really don't want to do that with Eric. Cause the more I over think, the more I scare myself which leads me to do absolutely nothing, which makes me mad at myself UGH! Cause, I'm this super open, talkative,optimistic person, around people who know me. And when I finally get outside of my head, I say the stupidest thing and can't carry a damn conversation. Its really frustrating! With Eric, I think we be good match, but I wont' know that if I don't talk him. So any tips would be awesome! Help me please!

Try and break the ice awkwardness that way maybe talk about the presentations you both had to do ask him if he felt nervous presenting and anything else you can think of to ask you could ask him questions about himself by doing that you'll get to know him better asking questions is how you create conversation you'll also find out if you both have similar interests things in common since you both haven't spoken at all the things you could talk about are endless to a certain extend tell him about yourself by doing that you'll keep the conversation going i know it's tough but try and be confident think positively the more you think positively and encourage yourself the better you'll feel [ sunshine1232's advice column | Ask sunshine1232 A Question ]

I probably missed out on plenty of girlfriends from being afraid, but you just gotta introduce yourself. Be brave. What's the worst that can happen? He isn't the only guy in the world, and it sounds like you're younger. If it doesn't work out, there will be another Eric who will. [ sillyrob's advice column | Ask sillyrob A Question ]
