I really like this girl but I don't know what to do!

[jimgriffin]

There's this girl in my English class that sits in front of me. She is fifteen and I'm sixteen. I really need help making this relationship happen. I'm not in this for sex either, like a lot of people my age are. I want a special, long-lasting relationship where I can love, cherish, protect, comfort, talk to, and hangout with her. I like her a lot. I also just want to say now that I am sorry if this is long. It is hard to do anything about this because I'm shy. I also think she is shy. She doesn't seem super talkative or loud, so waiting for her to make a move will not work. First of all, do you believe she likes me? Here are some of the signs that lead me to believe she does: she turns her head a little and looks at me out of the corner of her eye, she asks me questions about the work, a few weeks ago we were in a group together and when they gathered up I talked to a friend for a minute and she looked over at me as if wanting me to come to the group, she leaves stuff like her bag on my desk so when I come in I ask her to move it. Why would she do that, it can't be for no reason? Is it so I have to talk to her? Now one reason I don't think she likes me is because she doesn't seem excited when I do have quick talks with her. She isn't smiley or really into it. Could she just be shy and that's why. What should I do? I always talk myself out of talking to her because her friends are around or she won't want to talk or some bad reason. I'm running out of time to do this. There are only two weeks of school left and I need to at least be her friend and have her number by then please help me. I'm so confused about what to do.

No one has any advice? I really like her and I don't want to blow it.

Does she like you?: This is a question which is very hard to answer because I don't know her. Sure, there are a few signs you noticed but you have to make sure they really are because she likes you. Think, is she like that with other people? I know when I like someone I tend to over think their actions and ask the internet about it. All girls are different so I would have to know her well enough to give you my opinion. If you have any mutual friends, they'd be the best people to ask.

What to do: You say that you're both shy so, being a shy person too, I understand it is difficult to start a conversation with her. Think to yourself, what could go wrong? What is the worst that could happen? She isn't going to dislike you just because you want to have a conversation. Best way to think is realistically. Think what possibly would and could happen.
Maybe find a good time when the two of you are around each other to start talking. Get closer with her and get to know her.

Judging by what you have said there is a chance that something good can happen. I'm not saying she likes you back, just saying that she might if you were to get to know her.

I hope all goes well! :) Just remember: Think realistically.

The only real thing for you to do is ASK HER OUT!

We could speculate here but we can't say for sure. Girls like confidence, so you need to muster up any of it that you have and directly ask her on a date. If she says no, then you know she doesn't like you and you'll be sad but then you can move on to someone else. If she says yes then you can stop worrying and enjoy your time together.

Man up!

I had a problem very similar to yours because I had a girl I had a huge crush on and I always waited for her to make the first move, because I was shy. The only difference is that my crush and I were seniors and she was very talkative.

My advice to you would be next time you're in class with her you must to talk to her. Try to compliment her looks or say something that will make her laugh, and give her some clues that you're interested in her so she will feel more comfortable showing her feeling towards you. Don't over-think the situation and give yourself a reason to sit back and not say anything. You have to take control. If you want her, put your big boy pants on and get her.

Do not make the same mistake I did and over-think the whole situation until it is too late. You'll regret it.

Do you use/have her as a friend on facebook? I've found that facebook is a great way to start talking to someone, then, when you go into school you have been talking to her online so you can easily move on to talking in class and take it from there, the last thing you want to do is to rush into a relationship

I can't say for sure whether she has feelings for you or not. But I can say that you need to go for it and ask her out. Just casually ask her to hang out and don't make a big deal out of it. Sorry man, there's nothing else I can say.

If you want to play it safe, you could just go with the flow and wait a while. She could be shy or insecure, thinking she has an ugly smile, or scared to show obvious signs of liking. Or she could be another classmate who is in your class. But if you like her, you should ask her out.
