hi im a 16 year old male and i admit im very bad when it comes to talking to the opposite sex and to let them know im interested . i usually do start the conversation off with the usual "how are you?" and such but only a few minutes into the conversation and im already searching for things to say to keep the conversation going. so basically, im very shy and i dont act the way i want to when im talking to girls that im interested in. also, how do you know if a girl has even a slight interest in you? supposively, girls like guys who are very confident... but is it possible to be confident if your shy? any help would be appreciated, thanks!
