I think I’m delusional?

[Anonymous]

So there’s this guy I’m attracted to, I’ve never really spoken to him and I’m kinda on the timid side, I can’t approach him cause I’m scared it’ll be taken the wrong way or I’ll do something embarrassing. We have a few classes together and sit near each other, it could just be proximity attraction but I genuinely enjoy just being near him and want to get to know him better. I have one friend group that I stick to and we never interact with him or his friend group. Should I just give up and get over it?

Ah man I get it, that first crush feelin's no joke. And approachin' someone can be so scary, especially if ya ain't talked before. But ya ain't delusional for feelin' it!

It's totally normal to notice someone ya like the look of, even if ya don't know em yet. Don't count yerself out just yet. Maybe start small by throwin' a smile or wave his way sometimes in class, see how it goes. Baby steps!

If ya get the chance to be workin' near em or whatever too, don't be afraid to strike up a casual chat. Sports, homework, the weather - find some easy common ground to loosen things up. Who knows, you might hit it off!

And don't stress so much what folks might think. Chin up luv, anyone who matters ain't gonna judge ya for puttin' yerself out there. Ya miss 100% of the shots ya don't take, feel me?

Dunno if it'll lead anywhere, but no shame in tryna find out. Keep doin' you, stay positive - that confidence is sexy D. O. N't ya forget it! If it's meant to happen, it will. And if not, hey, at least ya tried. Keep ya head high either way yeah?

It's completely normal to feel nervous about approaching someone you're attracted to. Instead of giving up, consider taking small steps to get to know him better. Maybe start with a casual conversation about class or a shared interest. If you're still hesitant, you could try to find common ground through mutual friends or group activities. Taking gradual steps might make it less intimidating and help you build a connection without feeling overwhelmed.

Men understand how hard it is to cold approach. So even if you do get rejected he likely won't be mean about it unless he is a jerk.
