Hey there, I really don't know what to do, hope you can help me. I live in Brazil, Rio and there's this american guy that just moved here. We have some friends in common and we went out (everybody) a few times. He's just my type but I'm not sure I'm his type. One of his best friends has a crush on me (I already told him it's not going to happen) so I don't know if he'd ask me out even if he liked me. What do I do? Also, I'm really shy, so every time I'm around him I'm awkward and don't know what to say and how to start a conversation. Help please!!

You don't make people like you, you try to be likable and hope they like you. HUGE difference. So be as friendly as you can be no matter how awkward you feel. Ask him about home and what he misses from the US, if anything. Maybe ask him if he'd like to see your favorite part of Rio, in the daytime of course, so it's not too intimate. A certain food or a place on the beach.

Just tell him us american man like a woman who know what she want

Tell him just like that? Won't he think I'm creepy or needy?

Yeah, he would think that's creepy. Don't do that!

What are you doing? You are making a generalization about millions of American men.
