So I got my first girlfriend and I really like her but when I'm around her I get nervous and don't talk to her how do I get over my nerves and talk to her

[Clough]

Hi, katesbi!

What are the things that the two of you like to do together, please?

Thanks!

[Devorameira]

The more you're around her, the more comfortable you'll both get.

Be patient and just try to be yourself.

Be yourself. Loosen up or she'll think you're not talking because you don't like her.

Talk about what types of things you like to do, ask her what she's into. Set up dates where you do something that you guys both like to do. Everyone's right though, just be yourself and the more you spend time together the easier it will get. Right now it's just important to get to know each other. The best way to do that is to just talk and ask questions. The rest will fall into place if it's meant to be.

Talking isn't the only way to communicate.

Sometimes a sign of a good relationship is being comfortable saying absolutely nothing, and just enjoying the company of someone you care for.

Some of my best memories were sharing something together, like a concert, a movie, a day at the beach. I don't remember much detail, but I do remember being very happy just in the moment.

As has been said, talk will come naturally the more time you spend together. I would take it as a positive sign that if she's comfortable being your girlfriend, she likes you just the way you are.
