[this happened the last week of august]
It was like any other day. I was waiting outside of my high school, talking with my friends, and laughing away. I continued smiling at what they were saying and then I looked up. He was walking down the stairs, stopped and continued to smile at me. I didn't know how to react until my friend playfully punched me on the arm telling me that I was continuously stepping on her foot. So I looked down to see, quickly apologized, looked up to see that he was gone. I looked around me, but I couldn't find him anywhere. I don't know why, but when I saw him for the first time, my heart started to beat faster, I didn't know what was happening around me, he was the only person that I saw (maybe because I kept my eyes directly on him), and his green eyes gave me butterflies. I tried looking for him everywhere that week but I couldn't find him. This was until we got our lockers and I found out he was four lockers away. Every time he passed by I couldn't help myself, my eyes NEEDED to set sight on him. I'm pretty sure he knew by then, that I liked him A LOT. It took me until the second week of September to find his name out, what classes he took, and if he was single or not. Turns out he was single and I HAD NO CLASSES WITH HIM (obviously). I told my best friends about him, and being the best friends that they are, they tried to find a way out for us to talk, or have some contact at least.

So a few days ago, HIS friend intentionally pushed him into me, causing his foot to step on my toe. He said sorry about 20 times before actually believing me when I said it was okay.

TODAY, I knew he was trying to talk to me. I'm not that good with guys, so I just let him try instead of me going up to him. (Yeh I know, stupid) I saw him following me until I passed his French classroom and then during lunch, he stared at my lunch table every two minutes. I know, wow, he's staring at your lunch table...but everytime he did, it was like I suddenly couldn't breathe anymore. His looking at me made want to grow up and marry him. haha quite immature. But, he makes me feel so...different, I guess. I've ever felt this way before.

My dilemma: it's been A MONTH since I've fallen for this guy and quite frankly, I have no idea what to do. Is this really love at first sight? Because it sure feels like it.

I personally don't think someone can literally fall in love at first sight, but I do believe in major crushes at first sight. It used to happen to me all the time until I realized that every time it happened the guy ended up being (to make a long story short) not boyfriend material. Once I realized that my hormones seem to have taken a hint and now I usually don't have a crush until I at least know that he's a nice guy.

Anyway, my advice is to see if you can find a casual way to get to know him. Maybe you could invite him to eat with you and your friends during lunch one day - the plus side to that is that your friends would then be able to tell you what they think of him. Once you know enough about him that you can decide whether or not you want to ask him out or drop hints that you'd like to be asked out... well, it's obvious after that.

how about this? Talk to him. Just talk to him. About whatever you like. You know, that "lots of homework?". "boy, the mets collapsed again". Just engage him in conversation. Just say hi!

I dont believe in love at first sight either, I just think someone can be really attracted to someone mainly because I dont think it could be love until you know the other persons personality.
I Agree with what both Avalikia and rsc4life have said, just go and talk to him because it sure seems like he likes you too, from what you have said. So show some interest and he might pluck up the courage to ask you out.
Good luck and hope it all works out. :D
