How would I go about picking up a girl when I'm afraid to go walk up to her and start chatting without worrying about what I might say or look like or what she may think?

As a girl, I tell you that shy guys are cute and preferable than guys who think they are players and smooth by feeding corny lines to us. Most girls like guys who are jerks. You shouldn't want a girl who likes guys who are jerks. A lot of girls are the opposite of those girls and like guys just as yourself. Guys who are shy and quiet. It's cute and shows that you are not insensitive and that you care about what others think of you.

Most jerks don't have this attribute which is why they get the girls who like this type of guy. You should approach her and be friendly. Approach her not as an unattainable girl but as another person who you are interested in getting to know that way you are less nervous. Ask her a question like what time it is, or try to find a question about whatever environment you are in. If she has a purse you could ask her to recommend a store where you could buy one for your sister or mother. She might be shy too and act like she is ignoring you but might really like you.

I am shy around guys that I like and sometimes try to avoid looking at them in their eyes or act like I am not interested but I really would like the guy to approach me and start a conversation. Most girls are usually just as or more scared at approaching a guy they like because of fear of rejection. For example, I had a crush on this guy and I think he had a crush on me too but we both were shy. I would look at him when he wasn't looking and I could see him smile at me once in a while. When I was around him I would get nervous and tried not to look at him and I would act indifferent. But I really wanted him to talk to me and start a conversation because I didn't have the guts to initiate one. But he too was shy. Eventually, I got the courage to start a conversation with the guy but the day I decided to talk to him was the last day we would have the same class together. In class, I didn't have the chance to talk to him and class ended and I didn't talk to him. I screwed up the chance I had and regretted not having talked to him sooner.

My fear of being rejected hindered my effort to get to know someone and now I live with the question of what if I had talked to him sooner. Take it from me, if you like a girl just approach her the worst that can happen is that she'll say no but so what? That just means that she was not worth your time and effort. It has nothing to do with who you are as a person. Eventually you'll find a girl who will like you for who you are as a person. Plus if you don't approach her you might regret it later thinking about what if she had said yes. You have a 50/50 chance.You might get rejected but eventually someone will not reject you. The key is not to care about what you look like, what she might think of you, or worrying instead be confident in yourself and she will notice it and like you more. Confidence is the key. Plus girls, are more self conscious about their physical appearance when they are around a guy they like. Good Luck.

WindChaser WOW... Well said! This missed opportunity also happened to me in the same way. I too decided to talk to someone I like at the very end of the quarter and it was too late. I deeply regret it, and I suppose it's a lesson for me and perhaps you to learn from - 7 months ago

I walk up to girls and just say hey what's up? and we end up talking about something or walking to class together.

You have to get up the gumption to talk to her. Whether it works out or not. This will always be an issue for you until you put yourself out there. Practice makes perfect. The worst that can happen is you put yourself out there. She says no. How is that any different than your relationship with her now?? If it makes you feel more comfortable...approach it slowly. Build a friendship or a cordial relationship with her first by joking around with her. Make your move later. Go for it.

Just go for it and act like yourself. Just talk to her and see what happens, you will never know if you don't try.

Does it ever annoy you that you're single?
random-ren asked 2 days ago

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
On a first date I would probably do something fun at first like bowling or putt putt golf or even go to a theme park. To break the ice a little bit. After that was all done and over with I would take the girl out to get ice cream and a walk to the park so we can talk and get to know each other a little better. When all was said and over with I would hope for a kiss rather a peck or a real one.

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
I would like my date to know that I am laid back and a fun guy to be around..

Would you date me?
