You know as I've been spending a little more time with my crush recently, I'm thinking she doesn't like me, at least not yet ;). Now I suck at reading people, or as my friend would say "It takes an army of people to point out the obvious to you." So I'm thinking in the teenage world, what do you do? Just talk to her and hope for the best. I mean they say chivalry is dead, so is opening a door for her or things of that nature going to do anything? What does it take to get a girl to like you? I mean I'm kind of in the dark here, never had a girlfriend at the age of 15 I feel kind of un-aware. Not to mention how paranoid I am about every little thing I just can't seem to get her out of my mind. Although I digress, so I'm curious girls, how does a guy get your attention? What does he do to steal your heart? Thanks for the information, I know I've made a few more threads than normal recently, pardon that. Thanks again for constant support!

Great, thanks for the quick response, doesn't bode well for me personally but I see.
What about after first impressions, when you know the person?

Learn how to do something out of the ordinary, like a musical instrument or a backflip :)

Ok well even though they may say chivalry is dead, i still REALLY love when a guy acts like a gentleman, like opening car doors and stuff because it shows that he really cares about me.
And for the other question, all girls like different things. To get my attention, i like when guys are funny and can say something sweet or flirty. I hope this helps u out!

I'm a guy but I've noticed that these work. And I'm pretty much echoing everyone else here but anyway. Confidence is good, very good. Having a distinct personality and not trying to change for them. Being very witty and having funny things to say. Also knowing stupid cliche lines to say. Even though they're stupid it's gets their attention. But don't say em too much otherwise you actually start looking like a fool. And being sweet. :) that always helps. :) I hope I helped some. Good luck.

Thank you, I see what you're saying here. I have a friend that can do a back flip and whenever he does it, people are in awe. So thank you :D

Really? I always thought people at this age thought that was just corny or whatever, but thank you. Glad to see not everyone is like that, thanks for that input :yes:
Yes it did help me out, thank you!

Okay Great, thanks. I try and be as witty as possible, unfortunately most of my jokes come from TV :P Thanks a lot, you did help!
I'm still open to more opinions, actually they would really help! Thank you!

Sadly I realize that, but there's really nothing I can change about that.

I do tend to try to hard, but I was always taught if you want something you have to go and get it. So if the work is texting her a couple times a week or hanging out with her as much as I can, then I'm going to work :yes: Oh believe me, I've looked next to me...the girl by my side who I once liked is now my best friend and has a boyfriend :P And you are right, winning is a much better word there ;)
Thanks again! Always open to more!

Well, if you've got the awareness to realize that you're not as good at this as you'd like to be, you have more awareness than you think....and more than most people!
The easiest way to get someone's attention is to ask yourself what would get yours, then do that. As an FYI, what works for me is to make eye contact and smile. It's unmistakable, the message you're giving, and the response from that person is also pretty clear. After that, it's really just walking uo ti them and saying 'Hi!', and introducing yourself.
Guys tend to obsess over this, and worry and fret so much that they talk themself into a corner. But, if you just let go a bit it flows much easier than you'd think. Sometimes, it pays to NOT think too much before you act!

Thank you, I love your difference of opinion, always very insightful! Going with the flow isn't great with my personality, I'm the tense guy who always has to have a plan. So going with the flow is something I know I need to work on, so I'll give that a shot, thank you!
