Okay, so I have liked the same guy for a while... and last year I had more of an oppurtunity to talk to him because I saw him at lunch and I had a period with him, but this year I have NO periods with him, I barely even see him at lunch and the only time I do see him is in the hallway but I can't talk to him there. The only possible way I could is mutually through his friends cause I'm friends with some of his... but still, how can I talk TO HIM.

PS: I am really shy around him.. not in general with guys I like but with him I get really intimidated. What does this mean?

It is normal to be shy around him, when you like someone there is a fear of rejection. Does he do any after school activities or belong to any clubs that interest you? You could join one of them. Does he have an after school job that the public can go into? You could go in as a customer. Does he go to the athletic games at your school?

Haha, actually no... its weird our lame school doesn't have activities and he's too young for a job [were 14 soon to be 15.] literally, right after school he just heads home.

Do you walk home from school in the same direction? Is there a subject you are good at that he is having a problem doing? Is there a social activity that he does away from school that you and friends have in common? What are his hobbies?

Use your mouth, and exhale slowly as you form words with your toungue and lips. Try to line up the words in such a fashion that they form sentences.

Trust me, It works! Lol...

Sorry for the sarcasm, but all I am trying to say is he is a human being like everyone else. He is probably a little nervous too. Just talk. Find out what he interested in, and talk about that. Find a common interest you two have, and talk about that. Or, just say "hi, how are you?"

Easier said then done, I know. But try it :).

His personality is kind of intimidating though... I don't even know how to explain it, I have talked a little to him and I think he's interested because he stares at me and answers my questions if I ask someone else, but if I just said "hey" he would probably look at me funny.. or like I am up to something lol.

OK I can relate to your case... honey this is perfectly normal it just simply means that you have a great deal of feelings for him... but other than speaking to him through his friends it would be better for you to speak to him yourself because his friends might be saying one thing to your face and saying a next behind your bac... be careful with doing that.
Plus it's the 21st century honey don't he have a cell phone so that you can call him and he calls you? That way you get to talking and when you get face to face with him you would not be as shy. Eventually it would just be a normal and regular thing for you and him. Oh and also don't come onto strong...
