For context, we don't have any classes together and i only see him during lunch. We make eye contact A LOT but have never spoken. He's new to the school and doesn't have many friends. I want to talk to him/get to know him but I don't want to be awkward or have him be disinterested... please help, what do i do?

What a great opportunity. If he is new to school and you only see him at lunch, go sit with him. Walk up, introduce yourself, and start with something like, "I see you are new to the school". Tell him your name and one thing about yourself. "Hi I am ____. I have seen you in the cafeteria, and I realize you are new to the school. Mind if I join you for lunch?" Tell him things like, "I really enjoy _____", or "What is your favorite sport? What classes do you have?" You can connect over a sport, a class, or a teacher. Creating a new friendship is always a positive, and who knows what happens next!

First start with a Letter, if he writes back, it could be a sign he likes you

Smile to him everyday when you pass by! After cheesing a few times over a few days, try like a small wave! THEN BOOM! AFTER A WEEK WALK OVER TO HIM AND START TALKING!

I can't talk to him without getting nervous 💗
I'm sure I'm not the one but I need tips. I always say "I can do it" then I give up the second I see him!
I don't know what to talk to him about... The only time I see him is at our homeschool group and I just have no idea what to say 💡

Tips for starting a conversation for socially awkward people
Hey, friends. I really want to get better at talking to people. I feel like I’m just really awkward when I try to talk to new people (especially crushes), and I don’t really know what to do to improve that. I’m in my mid-20s and I feel like I was so focused on school when I was in high school and college that I just didn’t get the social reps in that everyone else got and now I don’t know what to do. Any tips?

Got crush for the first time!
So basically there is this guy .... (in my school not same section but in same year) he was vice president of the school (before my exams end) He is kind a popular for sure and tall (lol).

There was a certain situations happen like he came beside me for no reason... and i got rejection to be friend with him (even i tried as someone else tho) .. but then are final exams came... and this whole week. we atleast make three eye contacts in a day... but on the last exam.. the sitting arrangement changed...and my crush kind a look with "glares" (I know i might be being bit too much delusional but still what if he was jealous) We never had convo...but in past class test he asked me for cheating in exam and i denied.. (kind a make bad response that makes him suppress weird smirk) ... so that's the all thing going on... and now i have no idea... that what should i do... cause this last year.. i wanna focus on my study but also last chance to experience school love.. and if... we end up in relationship i do not wanna do long distance... and we don't have same career line too. ( NOW WHAT SHOULD I DO I'M MESS.. and it's my first time to have crush on someone)

Sorry for bad english and big para.

How do I tell a cute boy I like him without being embarrassed 🙈?!
I really like a boy and I am not sure that he likes me. He is just a little bit taller than me, brown hair and hazel eyes. I wouldn’t say he’s a nerd, but he is very good at school. I’ve liked him for around 4-3 years now.

The thing that made me first like him, (you know, turned me on) was when he had the courage to let me see his story’s. I thought that I was the only one in my class who made up story’s and tried to make them into something real! The best part was when he looked at me smiling and said that he thought he might give writing and drawing a try, turns out he is a fantastic artist and writer. But the fact that he wanted to try something that I shared with him warms my heart. He also told me that he only showed three people sooooo I mean like…

Idk I need help with this he is really cute and I wanna show hints and make him show a few hints

How do I impress my crush without being cringe?
I (16 f) want to get my crush (17 m) to notice me in a romantic way, but I don’t want to be too cringey or obvious about it. I sort of just want to catch his eye without him realizing I’m even interested, if that makes sense. Sometimes I feel like he looks past me at school, but other times I kind of get the vibe he’s into me. What can I do to impress him (preferably without talking to him, I’m kind of shy)?
