how to approach a really, really shy guy?

[CLICK9]

this has been bugging me for a long time. There's a guy in my department at school who always smiles and looks at me, but never will say hi or anything. I usually see him walking around or studying by himself but sometimes he's with one of his guy buddies (he never talks to girls). Do you think I have a chance or is he just being a tease? I hate being the initiator!!!!!

[Kulturkampf]

Sounds like he needs to grow balls. Maybe you can teach him? I do not know.

Cowards don't deserve victories.

[maggiekarp]

Everyone has a chance, really. If you don't take it, you'll be left wondering "what if?"

I'd get better advice first, though

[camacazio]

Go talk to him. And if it happens to be me, fuck off.

[Archduke Tips]

I think I can help you, but first I need to know what department the guy is in and whether or not he is in a fraternity?

Also, what are you looking to get out of it... A relationship? Random sex? Dates?

[Sethomas]

Stick your tongue in his mouth. Forcibly. As a shy guy, it's left quite an impression on me in the past.

[Dr. Boogie]

If he is really shy, you're going to have to be the initiator. On the plus side, there's little chance that you'll be shot down by an extremely shy person.

Just introduce yourself. If he is interested, he'll thank you for it. Probably not aloud, but still...

[Pub Lover]

Not if he's insanely insecure and paranoid, he might think she's trying to humiliate him.

[Supafly345]

Maybe he likes that.

Will you shut the fuck up......just shut the fuck up, You goddamned retarded skinhead fuck. No one wants to hear your asinine ramblings and incoherent spewings. Go back to your barracks and jerk off to Mein Kampf and shut the fuck up.

[Sacks]

Patience, Cosmo. Some of us are just too fast to live and too young to die on these information super highways. Anyways, I say go talk to this dude. He's probably sitting at home trying to figure out why the cute gal/fella he keeps smiling at won't come talk to him.

[EisigerBiskuit]

It's like looking into parralel mirrors, it is.

[Dole]

You are such a humoungous fucking loser it defies all belief.

[CrazyBlackDude]

If he's shy, just make the first move.

yay! okay, the answers to your questions are music, oh hay-ellllllll no, and none of the above. I just kind of want to hang out, make out and see where it goes.

Please give me some specific directions, because I think it would look dumb to go up to him now and be like, "Hey, we had a class together a year ago and never talked to each other, but I think you're hot now. I'm _____ by the way." Ugh. I think I need to come up with something that has a little more zazz!

All the more reason to talk to him. That way, he'll try to avoid doing whatever it was that might have attracted attention, and Click will have her answer.

My God Cosmo. This side of you....just takes my breath away!

I am glad it gets to you.

I haven't jerked off in a few days, but I will jerk off just for you -- at a picture of a blond with blue eyes, because I know that is how you would want me to do it.

I think your best bet is to write him a cute note with your phone # on it saying you want to hang out some time. Be creative on how you give it to him, like slipping it into his backpack when he isn't looking or putting it on the windshield of his car. Don't give it to him in person, if he is shy he might get kinda freaked out.

Will he know who you are if you put your name on it? If not, then include a picture. Make sure that you look good in the picture, don't just put any old picture in there.

This way you aren't really the initiator because it is up to him to call you. If he looks at you and smiles a lot, then chances are he likes you and will call you. If he doesn't call within a week, then come back for more advice.

Also, make sure you are ready to talk if he calls... It might put him off if he calls you and you just say, "duh......"

I think there is a lot of good advice in this thread (except for the German jerk off guy).

Something else too; if two people are attracted to each other, there is going to be an extra level of awareness between them. Perhaps the other party notices you noticing him. There isn't anything wrong with going up and saying hi to him. If he's THAT shy, your going to have to bite the bullet and initiate the contact. That's just all there is to it.

[camacazio]

Not to seem all pessimistic or anything crazy like that, but I smile at just about anyone I walk by quite regularly on campus with a strong desire not to strike up small talk.

[MetalMilitia]

Have you tried playing hard to get!

I bet it will work. I bet will.

[The One and Only...]

Bash in his face with a tennis racket. He's probably a sub, so he'll dig it.

[-->oscam]

He's gay.
