Loneliness.

<p>Haha, blythe, I'm always glad to make a new friend, especially one who likes anti-prom parties:)</p>

<p>But which part is cute exactly?</p>

<p>ravin, just ask...seriously. I mean, the major problem that I have observed with my male friends and myself is that we emotionally commit before asking, and then we're too scared to ask...</p>

<p>watch a movie together, casual, take a friend and her interested guy if you think that will be a big deal
or since you're in Cali, go to a nearby beach for the day if you could, just chill with a group of friends while sorta focusing on him
or if there are any birthday parties coming up .. . (lol) you could get him to go and then just leave with him after a while. . it doesn't have to be a big deal if you dont want it to be</p>

<p>Ravin maybe he's confused and that might be dangerous to meet up with him</p>

<p>or you could just take mega's advice, just.. don't get your heart broken =&lt;/p>

<p>Movies can become date-ish...not for a skittish guy...that's my major concern about them. Plus, if you don't know his taste in movies, then you might pick something he absolutely abhors. The bday party and the beach are both good shots though.</p>

<p>kissmekate this is how you defeat loneliness: make some friends.</p>

<p>I know of ZERO guys that would be willing to go to art galleries and museums, plays, operas, and ballets. It's very refreshing. And the "love of your life" thing. Gosh, you need to teach these Hawaii boys a lesson. </p>

<p>How would you guys suggest meeting a guy that you have always heard about and sometimes see around, but you have never talked to him. I see this guy aroudn school and I always have to give him a second glance, but I don't know how to talk to him. We have no friends in common. And I don't want to scare him away. I just want to get to know him.</p>

<p>The beach is pretty windy this time of year, haha.</p>

<p>I do have friends (I'm satisfied with all 9 of my closest ones)... but sometimes...</p>

<p>Errr, you need to find some way to be in a conversational setting with him...everything else follows. Sooo...figure out his schedule, I guess. Run into him at lunch or after school...yeah, kinda stalkerish, maybe.</p>

<p>Oh, and trust me, I'm the only guy I know who goes to cultural events. I get more homophobic comments than the gay kids at my school, but that's probably because I like dressing nicely, even to school:)</p>

<p>kissmekate have you ever heard of EMO kids? Yeah please dont turn to the dark side.,,</p>

<p>I've heard of them at my school, but I still don't get what they are. Reminds me of punk.</p>

<p>Check out Emogame.com, it's fun.</p>

<p>Blythe it sucks that you have no friends in common, that's how I met a really awesome kid, through 1 friend we had in common. And my roommate knew him too, so it worked out nicely. At first it was awkard, but yeah .. you don't have any friends in common at all, so all I can think of is to get your guts together and ask him to the nearest dance .. i mean does he ever return your glances?? That's a key part I think, if he's interested at all.. or maybe if there's some huge get-together to find him and introduce yourself? Or introduce yourself to any of his friends first, like maybe you and a friend befriend a friend of his . . that's a tough situation, especially if you have no classes together either.</p>

<p>"just ask...seriously. I mean, the major problem that I have observed with my male friends and myself is that we emotionally commit before asking, and then we're too scared to ask..."</p>

<p>thanks. i will try. :) but there are some 'complications' which i would rather not discuss.
omg.."i hate washing my dirty linen in public"...haha..i have already washed done that btw.
:D
want me to tell you people the best way to find out whether a guy/girl is interested or not...???</p>

<p>Offer them sex...no, j/k. Do tell, ravin.</p>

<p>blythe+mega+everyone else
look into his/her eyes...even if he/she is faintly interested...i am sure he/she will look back..:)
and once that happens it will be hard for him/her to look away...
its foolproof. :D</p>

<p>Bah. Well, this is what happened...</p>

<p>He is a year younger than me and he just moved here this year, so on the first day of school, I was like whoa. Like, he is my ideal guy phycially. So I followed him to his 5th class because it was next to mine and I was planning on "accidentally" bumping into him. BUT then my "friend" hooked up with him after she heard about me thinking he was hella hot. And I was like, oh well, so when they stopped hooking up, I was going to use her to help me. But then I realized that I hated her and we don't talk anymore...
Hmph. </p>

<p>Yeah, sometimes we make eye contact and stuff. But then what? Just walk up to him and introduce myself? I'm not sure I have the balls for that.</p>

<p>Wow, lovely friend there. Blythe, I sincerely hope you don't have balls at all...physically speaking.</p>

<p>Using her would be a bad idea anyway, she isn't trustworthy. Look, find a friend of a friend who knows him, and get to know them, and let them in on the fact that you are interested. Also, find out where he hangs out...</p>

<p>I understand how it's very hard after eye contact to initiate any kind of communication . .. you have the possibility of completely embarassing yourself, stuttering, anything if you're really crazy about him.</p>

<p>Confidence is key though, and the friend idea is the best really, so you dont have to talk to him directly and make a fool out of yourself, but you're both introduced through a middle man. So the middle man introduces you two, all 3 or so of you hang out, and you can get to know his interests taht way, maybe even exchange IMs if it works out really well. Because once you're introduced, it's not that hard to say a hello afterward within the next couple of days and get to know him even more better.</p>

<p>woa girls stalk guys too? <em>looks around</em></p>

<p>jk... i wish</p>

<p>Blythe
Another nice way to get a man to notice you is to IGNORE him. pretend like he isnt there...men have big egos...so someone ignoring them just confuses them...and they come over to "investigate" haha..i mean, he will come over and start a conversation......i am sure if you execute this nicely...it will work.</p>
