OK I like this guy and I can tell that he likes me. He always stares at me and of course I stare to. But I never can talk to him and I'm just so nervous around him and I hate it. I want to tell him but I get so nervous and I won't say anything to him. He is really a good guy and what's so ironic is our birthdays are on the same day and year and were both the same age. I'm 13 he's 13. But how can I just talk to him and tell him how I feel because I can tell he wants to say something but he doesn't also and its just so confusing. I don't want to let a great guy slip away all because I was nervous please help please. Thank you!

You're nervous because you're 13.
Don't worry about telling him how you feel, just say hello. That is a great start to conversation.
Speak to him when you see him, it gets easier everyday. You say one one and it turns into two.

What your going through is quite normal. The biggest fear in life we have to overcome is the unknown. And our minds get caught up in the "what if" game. Relax. Nothing is going to happen from saying hello. Maybe see what he is reading or ask about movies he might like. When you break the ice then you later can fall into a comfort zone that is your own personal bubble. And if he were to say no or already have a girlfriend then you will know exactly where you stand. Take a deep breath (just 1) and speak.

Well it's hard to ask what movies he likes if you can't even say hello. If you can't say one word several is going to be hard.

Do you two speak to each other at all or just stare? Try saying hello! The other chat will come.

"Hi! My favorite food is pizza. I could eat it every day! What's your favorite food?"

"Hi! I have three cats -- Rasputin, Kuro, and Little Debbie. Do you have any pets?"

Thanks everyone I'll try tomorrow and see how it goes. I'll practice a couple of times and just go with the flow. Wish me luck.

Please report back. I want to know what kind of pizza he likes and how many pets he has (and their names). If you don't find out, give me his phone number so I can call him to find out. :D
