Sending the first message

[Boaz274]

Hello guys and gals. I am creating this in hopes that you can help me. I like this girl but I am scared to talk to her because I'm shy. I want to send the first text but even then I'm scared of that. Any advice?

Well last time I did that, it worked out quite well. The only real way to really know if a girl likes you is if you talk to her directly.
how did you get her number anyway? She gave it to you?

IMO a text is okay. But if she doesn't really know you already or you already have a friendship than maybe not so much. So keep that in mind.

Tbh a lot of social situations can be awkward, especially when you have interest in getting to know someone on a personal level. I would completely understand if someone wanted to break the ice or calm their fears by texting or messaging first until they are more comfortable. I can identify with a lot of it myself

Just do it! Haha, just say Hi, or How have you been since i last saw you...

Doesn't have to be complicated - start the conversation!

Do it. If ur shy to face her what do u
have to lose but to text her and tell her
u like her. Whatever she answers then u
will know where u stand.

Just start out with something simple, like saying "Hi" or "Whats up?" and let her respond to that and then go from there. It will probably be easier for you to talk to her through text than it will be in person to start off. Use the texts as an ice breaker to pen the door for more conversation.
