this guy at taekwondo...

[rkbunni]

he's really cute. i liked him from the beginning. only, i'm extremely shy. i have trouble talking or socializing all the time. even when i'm around friends, i don't usually join conversations. maybe i'm just not comfortable around other people. that's how bad it is. and when i ask friends about what i should do about the guy at taekwondo, they say "just act normal" or "just be yourself"... but i'm an idiot around guys. i can't exactly do that. can someone please help me?

You could talk to him about taekwon-do to start...you know, kicking techniques, patterns, step sparring stuff...you know, something you both obviously have a common interest in!!!! After that maybe talk to him about school, what his other hobbies are, etc....After that, if you get a receptive vibe from him...for example he's into the conversation, you could ask him if he'd be interested in going to coffee sometime.

 

That's my two cents.

Yep start conversation about something yall both are interested in. Just wonderin what belt are you? Im a blue belt.

Geez, guys... I quit when I reached yellow or the next one, or something like that! LOL I'm so non-athletic. (I was also 13 yrs old at the time)

 

Yea, to answer this one, I'm in clear agreement. You already have a big thing in common, your interests. If he's at class, you know he's into Taekwan-do, so start there!

 

Just ease into conversations, and let him know you're looking! He shouldn't take long to figure it out!

Good luck! Go for it!

if you dont act like yourself, and act like someone else to impress him, wats the use, he will end up knowing the real you in the end, so just be yourself! im sure if he didnt like you another guy will, see ya!

Its always good to talk about school.

i got my account reactivated..... ^^*

ok.. i just thought of 3 problems:

1. y'know how i said i was extremely shy? i don't know if i'll have the guts to actually go and talk to him.

2. i don't know if i would have a chance, because the instructor divides the guys and girls.

3. he's always hanging out with his friends after class. that would make me even more nervous.

i really don't know what i should do..

[Yahko]

Ok. I know what you mean.

 

Do it this way. [You will neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedddddddddddddddd alot of guts to do this]. You probably know in which class he study. Come the day after with somekind of book and ask him "I think its yours , no.....!"

 

He would say "No".

 

If he would go away after that , i dont think he is noticeing you.....if he would stay and ask "so how are you ?"

 

Thats a good start ! So thats how you start a chat. Be sure his buddies are not around, because he may fell shy around them when you are coming...... and start making fun of you or something [but believe me he is doing it just because he is with the buddies , and he dont mean to hurt you , ]

 

WE are man and we need to keep our Ego as guys ! Sorry....

 

Another sujestion...... You probably know when he is coming to class. Late or early. [Probably late] if he is coming early , come early too.

 

YOU WILL need a LOT of guts and I cant help you with that ! But imagine that if you would talk to him you will get such a great feeling that you talked to him [believe me I know by myself]. You will fly in the clouds after talking to him , and its worth it. !

 

Again , Guts !! You will need them alot, with guys.....
