ems123 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 If you havent seen my other posts, check them out to understand more. I am in the 8th grade and i have always struggled with getting scared to ask boys out or talk to them about my feelings face to face, ive always been fine in a relationship and able to talk too them face to face, just never talking about stuff like that face to face. I had written a note for him on thursday to give to him friday and i had given it to him, to sum the note up it was me admitting i did like him and just how i felt about each situation that has happened. I didnt ask him out on it because i felt that was crossing the line, and i felt maybe that would be too soon and too stressful for me and him. I set that aside and gave him the note friday in class. He had read it and im not sure what he thinks, and if he even cares, he opened it and read it in class. He looked at me a few times after he looked at it, and when i was leaving i whispered to my friend that sits at his table to email me, as i do not have my phone right now. My other friend and him asked what i said as i left, im assuming she didnt hear because i didnt say it too loud, and i walked away fast afterwards. I really want to know what he said about the note or what he thinks and i dont know how to approach him because im sure he wont approach me to talk about anything. What should i do? Link to comment

In fact it's not recommended. All you have to do is be approachable Be able to smile, say hi, be easy to talk to, ask questions about class, teachers, school, interests, whatever. Follow/friend people from school on social media. Be interactive with people. It's unclear where you got these bad ideas that you have to run up to boys and ask them out or dump your feeling on them? Who does that? Who told you that? People become interested in you when you are interested in them. However you can't just hide in a corner and expect to make friends. Link to comment

I like this dude, i have for weeks now, i want to ask him out, but im afraid, of multiple things. Im afraid he wont take it seriously. i am approachable, im a very outgoing person to be honest i just get shy sometimes when it comes to wanting to ask a boy out. I want to make him mine, like badly. I can talk to him about almost everything if i wanted too. besides when it comes to asking him out and expressing my feelings, i hate ranting, and i get shy when it comes to asking a boy i like out.

Capricorn3 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 OP, there is no need to keep starting new threads when they all pertain to the same topic. Saves jumping from one thread to another when it can all be kept in one thread and avoid confusion. Thanks. Link to comment

Ask your parents to take you to a doctor/therapist about the shyness as well as these obsessive thoughts about a boy. Link to comment

I understand you're new here, that's why I am informing you on how things work. Viewers DO see your updates and follow your thread etc. No need to have three or four threads, daily, all on the same topic. One thread is all that is required. Link to comment
