Be yourself. If you are nervous, it's a sign that you have too high of expectations for how you want the other person to respond to you, which makes you start acting. You want to live up to the other person's expectations of you — which you don't even know because you are assuming them — which makes you not yourself. If you're not being yourself, then who is the other person even liking? Be natural, and remember, they don't bite. They should know the real you.

I suggest you start hanging out with him as much as possible. Since you guys are friends, get to know more about each other so you can be super close. AND I also suggest using support by using friends to know the tea behind your crush (if you have friends)

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 💡

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 Talk To My Crush When We Like Eachother?
I'm like 99% sure my crush likes me, but I don't know how to talk to him, and my friends are always ruining things for me. Not always intentionally, but they hate him and recently shoved me into his space bubble in a line. I was super ticked. I had given him a note through my friends and he was blushing a lot, plus he looks at me a lot, and even my sis noticed. But he hasnt talked to me, except for in a private place once, and when we see each other it's NOT private. How do I figure it out?

Help, how do I tell him I like him???
So, we've known each other for three years, and I love being around him! He gives me so much happiness and warmth. But anytime I try to tell him, I chicken out! We've had a lot of romantic moments but both of us are to anxious to say anything. I'm terrified I'll lose the happiness I'll get around him. What do I do?

He's a good friend of mine.
last year in my sophomore year of high school I liked this guy and never had the guts to tell him. and now that we have been friends since then I've had those feeling get stronger. I have the feeling he doesn't like me, and he cares about my safety and I don't want to lose that. And telling him will make things awkward what should I do?
