Steps
- All relationships have to start somewhere, say "hey!". If she's in your English/History/Chemistry class, strike up a conversation with her! For example, "What do you think you got on the test?" Talk about something pertaining to that class you share together! Or just give her a friendly "hello", there's nothing wrong with exchanging opinions or making a friendly comment!
- Continue saying "hi", to her. Eventually it will lead somewhere, like stated before, all relationships have to start somewhere. Become friends with her, friendship is the perfect way to start a dating relationship! Like the old saying goes, "best friends make the best boyfriends." Just make sure you don't camp out in the friend zone..
- Make it evident that you have romantic interest in her- flirt with her or give her compliments! "I like you hair today!" or if make a comment on what she's wearing- "you look pretty in the color blue!" It'll let you know that you're paying attention. Plus, girls appreciate when guys notice little things like that.
- Get her phone number! Once you've established a friendship with her, get the opportunity to advance towards a dating relationship by talking to her outside of school. Don't know how to get her phone number? Make up an excuse! A perfect example would be, "Tomorrow I have a big exam in Chemistry! Can you text me and remind me to study?" or something like that.
- When it all comes down to it, no matter how many compliments you give her, no matter how many times you text her. Be honest! Tell her flat-out that you like her. Don't play games, and if you're honest then you'll get a better feel of where you stand with her. Plus, if she doesn't like you and you tell her that you like her- remember! You won't be wasting your time on someone who doesn't feel the same way. Don't know how to tell her? Simple! Say, "Listen, (insert name), I have something to say.. in case if you didn't know, I like you. And if you like me too, I hope we can be more than friends. If not, it's fine. I just had to let you know." You can change this part if you'd like, but this is just a rough sketch so you can make up your own clever lines! Good luck!
Tips
- Don't get a "go-between" to communicate with her. Meaning, don't get a mutual friend to go talk to her. Go talk to her yourself, you'll be glad you did.
- Make sure you practice good hygiene and have fresh breath! Getting a nose full of today's lunch from your mouth is gross and body odor is just downright offensive.
- When you text her, text her at decent times. Like around 5pm or 6pm. Not at like 12am or when you wake up. That's weird. Even though you're thinking about her at 10pm, don't make it evident by texting her at that time.. unless if you have her permission.
- If she says "no", move on. There are plenty of fish in the sea.. you just have to catch the right one!
- Say "hi" to her, but don't overdo it. It'll probably creep her out, and she'll probably get annoyed.
Warnings
- When you're confessing your true feelings to her, do it face-to-face and do it in private. Just the both of you. Her attitude might change when she's around her friends.
- Make sure she is not always flirting with another guy.
- Don't text her too much! And don't reply back too fast! That will make you look desperate. If you must, make sure there are 2-3 minute intervals between texts. As badly as you want to text back, make it look natural by waiting as instructed.
