well for one you have to remeber that the guy your talking to in real life is the same guy you talk to online if you have no problem talking to him online then it shouldnt be a problem in real life. If you cant make conversation in real life then again how does it happen online? just do you best to approch him and talk to him like you would some other friend. If all else fail telling him you like him will both explain why you nerveous and probably make him more understanding and could start a real relationship.

"Hey, what's up?" always works for me. Don't overthink it.

"yo, homo" or "what da fuck up?"

Clearly no one has overly elaborate responses here, you'll just have to go for the usual greetings as above. It's not really hard, is it? Say something more elaborate and you might just get it wrong.

"yo, homo" or "what da fuck up?"

Lol. That's if she want's to put him off. ^^
Just start by saying, "Hey how are you" or something that's simple, but something you would say, so it doesnt look like your trying to impress or anything. Make it sound as natural as you can, best way to be!
Good luck hun!

Not gonna lie, that'd just make me laugh my ass off if a girl said that to me. xD

Don't even worry about it. Act like your just talking to one of your other friends, treat them the same. People are people.

^Perhaps you didn't grasp the sarcasm. Looking deeper into this after a little thought and relating it to my own experiences, usually when someone talks to someone online but not in real life it is down to one or some of the following:

- They value you as a friend (of course, because it is much easier to ignore someone online than real life) however find it difficult to talk to you in real life, possibly for some of the below reasons.

-- You don't fit into their circle of friends, or they don't want to be seen with you.

-- You have built up a close friendship online where it is easier to talk however don't feel comfortable yet continuing the bond in real life where you are not accustomed to talking to each other

- Compare it to meeting someone for the first time in real life, while you may know a little about them what you have seen so far is just text and emoticons, not emotions or feelings conveyed in conversation and social interaction which means you don't have a particularly intimate or close relationship as friends in real life tend to.

My considered advice, thus, is if you want it to work you have to build it up slowly. Gradually get closer in real life to the point where you are reasonably comfortable with one another then build it from there. Try just to start with small talk, meaningless chatter that gets you to talk in real life and show each other who you really are. Try pairing up and working together in classes too. Good luck!

Just talk to him like you have known him forever.
Like, talk to him like with no effort, just casually be like "Alrite" and sit down. Simples ^^

Well mabey he should start a convo? mabey he thinking the same thing about you and thinks your being turned off by him :) everyone gets shy around ppl they like once you get to that love point is once you talk and get to know each other

Just start with simple things like "Hey how are you today?" You can then go on to basic subjects like class or depending on his answer if he's feeling bad you can ask him whats wrong or help him feel better or if it's good ask him why he's feeling good. Eventually the conversation will build up and you will feel more confident. Just the way you are when you are talking to him online. Face to Face conversations can be scary you just have to start small and it takes time but you will get used to it.
