what can i do?

[ezkel2003]

i dont know whats wrong with me... i like this girl at school but for some reason i can never get any words out of my mouth to talk to her. i mean whenever i see her i will smile and say hi but thats it for the whole day. its never that hard for me to talk to other girls that i know, its only her that i get nervous when i try to talk to. we hardly talk to each other, i dont know if its because we dont know much about each other or if shes just not interested and for some reason shes always on my mind.... sometimes i feel that shes the reason i go to school in the morning, so i can see her... idk what to do. any advice on my issue?

Before you round the corner and see her grab your family jewels and say "I am man," then go and talk to her.

Don't feel bad, a lot of boys AND girls feel your pain . Just say something totally unrelated to your feelings, to break the ice. Ask how her day is going, what her hobbies are, what her favourite movie/song/band/food/etc is. Once you have done something like this to break the metaphorical ice, a conversation will begin itself and you will be confident and not worry as much .

but what happens when none of us cant think of anything to say and there is that akward silence? cos i tried talking to her once and that happened

Just ask open ended questions like I said, if you hit a road block...ask another one! Here, I'll make an example of a conversation for you:

boy: Hi, how are you?
girl: I'm fine.
boy: ...
girl: ...
boy: So, what you do you for free time?
girl: I like music.
boy: Oh really what kind?
girl: Rock mostly.
boy: Oh...
girl: ...
boy: Do you like movies?

See how I introduced another topic when she went quiet? Try that!
