There is a guy in my school who i really like and admire deeply although we have never had a strong friendship bond nor have had a long conversation between each other. I'm gay and he's a complete straight guy and were both in year 9 and we have two classes that were in this year.
I don't know how to start but i guess you'll get to understand my feelings of sorrow and pain throughout.
I really like him and I've got no other words to explain it but "loving someone who doesn't know you, hurts so much to even think of him". In school we barely have anything connected nor have even had a long talk. Once in Art class he complimented my work but i'm not sure how that would had meant and at some point he had borrowed my stuffs, but that's all there is. During at recess and lunch we just get to look at each other, him not knowing that i die to have a talk to him. To be honest i don't know how to approach him nor how to start a talk and make it long. Usually i wait for the person to approach me but then that'll lead me to a broken hope.
Right now i don't think he and i have any similar interest and hobbies aside that were both in the same classes. He plays in x-box and he's with his groups of friends which makes it even harder for me to approach him and he talks about things that I don't usually talk about. On the other side, i'm the kind of person whom is sensitive and shy, easily get nervous (especially when i talk to him) and i don't have nor had played x-box.
All i want is for us to be friends at first and to have a bond of like friendship. I barely have any friends (true friends) although people in my school respect me and are nice to me (most of his friends are those kind of people who are nice to me but we don't really talk much). My friends had helped me to approach him but none of any moments i tried to approach him because of my nervousness and shyness always takes the better of me leading me not to approach him. Beside if i do approach him i got nothing to talk about with him, i don't know what to ask nor what to talk about that'll make him interested. I kinda have acted "girly" well he probably know i'm gay cause the way i talked and the way i sometimes acted toward people, but i'm no slut or any kind of gay people who dies for love, my personality still explains me even though i'm gay.
Now lets cut to the chase..
- I need help to approach him successfully and to make him interested in out talk
- i need help of what kind of things i should talk with him about
- i need help to get over my shyness and nervousness (please provide suggestions how to help me with this one)
- I need help of when and where to approach him (right moment to approach him)
- i need help of clarification of that would he like me or not (~simple question~ would he like me or not based on what you have read)
- what should i do in the conversation? (should i compliments and .... please provide keys examples)
- How can he like me and be interested in me?
- Back to the question, Is there a chance we will be great friends? (unlikely or likely or 50/50)
P.S please help me with these question, you don't know how this means so much to me when you answer it. It would be appreciated if you would go into any detailed answers nevertheless any answers would be great. I only hope for help, so please have compassion

Unfortunately the best way to get a guys attention is to improve your appearance. Get a makeover, maybe dress just a bit more slutty, act feminine. It may seem shallow but it is the only way to get out of the friend zone.

Believe me when I say i know how you feel. I was almost in the same situation.

- I need help to approach him successfully and to make him interested in out talk
what do you mean "out talk"?

- i need help of what kind of things i should talk with him about
what are his interests? i'm sure there are at least a few in common, if not then talk about school. If you're desperate, try to become interested in something he's interested in too.

- i need help to get over my shyness and nervousness (please provide suggestions how to help me with this one)
Just think this. If your shy and nervous, he won't like you and he'll just think you're weird. Be confident because confidence is attractive. Don't get cocky though.

- I need help of when and where to approach him (right moment to approach him)
Parties where you were both invited to or are going to, school events, breaks between class. Don't make it too obvious because again, he might think you're weird (from experience)

- i need help of clarification of that would he like me or not (~simple question~ would he like me or not based on what you have read)
There's definitely a possibility he will like you. As a friend, yeah. As something more, i'm not sure.

- what should i do in the conversation? (should i compliments and .... please provide keys examples)
Compliment but not too much. Ask him stuff about his life but also talk about yours. Like, "hey how was your day?" as a start.

- How can he like me and be interested in me?
Like I said, as a friend he can, but something more, i'm not sure. Are you sure he's completely straight?

- Back to the question, Is there a chance we will be great friends? (unlikely or likely or 50/50)
There's always a chance! It's up to what you do if it'll be likely, unlikely, etc.

Just talk to me if you need any help.

Good luck! :)

@SimSailorNick
what i meant was "in our talk" sorry for the typo.. well i''m not 100% sure if he's straight or not but possibly he's more likely towards the "straight" side (judging towards his actions at school). His kinda boring to talk to and kinda cocky, maybe he knows that i'm gay maybe that's why he isn't comfortably around me and approaching me and even tried to be close to me... i just really don't know what's with him... i'm confused.. what should i do to make him notice me a lot more and be more interested in me? change my actions? change who i am? or change everything that i am currently am and doing right now at school just for him to notice me more (i.e. BE MORE MANLY) what do i do??? please help me...

I guess you could try acting a bit seductive.

If you're not sure, try feeling it out through your conversations. Or if you're good with sliding to topics, ask him if he likes girls, guys or both.

And if he doesn't like you for who you are then he's not worth it. I mean what kind of relationship would it be if he liked you because you're someone pretending to be something you're not, right?
