GUYS | GET A BF | CRUSH MUCH?

How do I get the cutie upperclassmen's attention?


 
I really like this is one guy in my school, but he is a grade older than me and doesn't know I exist. I want to meet him, but I'm way too shy to bump into him or talk to him. What should I do?

Everyone has their own flirting style, whether you're super out-going and boy-crazy or shy and less confrontational, so the key is finding out how you feel comfortable approaching your crush.

Trick #1: Give him the "look". If you're too shy to chat up your boy in class or slip him your number on a napkin during lunch, try catching his eye and holding his gaze. When he sees you looking at him, a red flag will go up and he'll be sure to notice you in the future!

Trick #2: Head to that school-wide spring fling! Even if you had been planning to take a girls-night-in and have a slumber party with your buds, switch up you plans, throw on a glam dress and go dance! You're much more likely mingle with other grades after hours rather than during a stressful school day. 

Trick #3: Let him see you shine! Even if you're too scared to approach him, stand out by trying out for a role in your school play or by organizing that charity fundraiser. Putting yourself in the spotlight is sure to get you noticed!

HI MOD(:
there's this REALLY cute junior that i like. Since i'm a freshman i don't see this guy around school very much because when i have a class on the right side of the school, he has a class on the left side of the school... -sigh-. he has my lunch && i've tried giving him "the look" to let him know i'm there. i wanna meet this boy but i don't know how to... he's into weighlifting and leadership! the other day i noticed that his 6th period class is right in front of mine and his locker is kind of close to mine. i'm scared that if i'll go up to him and talk to him, he'll get creeped or think i'm desperate. that's what happened with my old crush...he thought i was obsessed just because i talked to him on facebook every other day. WHAT SHOULD I DO?? he looks so worth it. but i keep thinking that i could never get a guy like him to like me because he's the kind of guy that has everything (looks, brains, personality, sportiness and style.) he could ANY girl.




Hey Chica,

If you think this guy's cute, it's totally cool to talk to him at his locker. Just say hey, or "accidentally" bump into him. If you're scared he'll think you're desperate or obsessed, don't come off as desperate! Just start a regular convo like you would have with anyone else and just be a little flirty. Guys don't always know how to make a first move, so sometimes it's up to you. Give it a chance, girlie, you never know how things will turn out!

MOD! MOD!
I have a big crush on this guy that goes to another school. The problem is my bestie likes him too and goes to the same school as him and sees him all the time. How can I get him to notice me if I see him sometimes at bball games?




Hey girly! If your best friend likes him to it may not be worth fighting over him to risk your friendship. let her know you like him too though and maybe she will back off herself and help you get him.

**MOD
Ok so I went to our first football game of the season just Friday. There was this hottie that was selling programs at the front gate, so I chatted him up about the programs. My friend and I decided not to get one so I looked at him and smiled and said "Maybe we'll get one later" and he looked up at me and our eyes met. Later during the game, I flirted with him again. I think I kinda like him... he's a sophomore and I'm a freshman... he's really nice, I don't really know him but I've seen him around before. What should I do to get to know him so that maybe we could go to homecoming or formal together?
THANKS!! <3 Smile
P.S. I can be kinda shy when it comes to guys so nothing too out there! Thanks! <3


 


Hey girly girl! Do you have any mutual friends? If so, they could formally introduce you. Otherwise, I'd say hi when you see him in the hallways or at school. Eventually, you can start talking more... ask him how his weekend was, if he did anything fun, etc.! Or, maybe you could ask him about volunteering or working at the football games, how you can help out too!

Hey girly,
The best thing to do is keep yourself busy. Try getting a job this summer or going to camp. Getting away from him will help you stop thinking about him. A get together with your besties can do wonders too!

i'm 15, and a freshman, yet older guys (like seniors) always flirt with me and talk to me and have even heart-to-heart conversations with me. why is this? and why don't they think i'm lame? if i were to talk to like a 6th grader.. i don't think i'd act the way they do, so why do they?
and also, do most guys think younger girls are lame?
thanks!




Hey girlie--it sounds like they think you're a great person Smile And no, I have never heard guys say younger girls are lame.

MODMODMOD! I need your help ive like this guy for about a year now and i want to become buddies with him or maybe go out with him . the thing is im getting mixed signals one time i was holding the door and he asked me did i get all a's on my report card he said he did and started ouging and saying 'yeah'. next i was at a party / sleepover and my friends were on the phone with him he said 6 out of 8 girls was cute or he would go out with he said 5 but he didnt metion who the last two were and he didnt say my name in the five. finallly my friend went swimming with him and randomly asked did he like me he said no,but im still confused. plus my friend is total buddies with him. i really want to be close friends with him at least please HELP!

 

 Hey girlie! Just try talking to him in a casual way. You don't need to say anything crazy just ask him how his day's going or how he did on the last test. By just showing your interest, he'll take notice.

I like this boy for over a year and ive tried getting his attention and he barley notices me. sometimes he will goof off like one tim i was in school holding the door and asked me did i get all a's on my progress report he said he did and did the dougie. i dont think he like me cause my friend asked as a random question did he like me and he said no. also at a party/ sleepover my friends was on the phone with him and he said he only liked 7 of the girls there there was 9 of us. if he doesnt like me i a least want to be friends with him.

i like this guy a year older than me and he knows me an i text him or at least try to but when i want to talk face to face i get to scared and feel like im going to faint. but me and my friend have a plan that the last day(which is in about a week) im going to ask him out as a joke if he says no but for real if he says yes. should i do it? and how do i talk to him face to face if i rarley see him and if he walks home with another girl????




Hey girlie -- nothing to lose with that plan Smile As far as talking to him face-to-face, whenever you do see him, try using one of these tips: http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/01/26/100-cute-things-to-say-and-do-around-guys.aspx Smile

Why is it so easy to fall for older good looking guys? I am not talking much older but I do have friends who are dating guys they shouldnt be. But it just seems I always want to flirt and be with them when they are older even when I have a bf. Is something wrong with me for feeling this way?




Hey girlie! Nope, for some reason older guys always seem more cool and alluring. Maybe it's because we see them as smarter and more mature or maybe it's because we relate them to hot older guy celebs. Who knows? But when it comes down to it, just remember that you'll probably have more fun with guys your own age anyway.

MOD! I want to end things with a toxic friend. She is a clingy, possessive, needy, rude person and for 6 years I was the one who was always there for her. It was always about her, and she never bothered to be a friend to me. She's starting to change, good for her. But I'm done with the friendship. I want to move on. I distanced myself from her for a while, and I'm so happy. I've gotten involved in theatre, lost weight, and my relationships with other people are WAY better. I even have a BFF! But my toxic friend wants to reconnect. I don't want to, but I'm afraid to tell her that because she has depression. I'm afraid of what might happen if I break up with her. I also feel like a bad person for wanting to end things with someone who has depression. What should I do? I'm a Junior in HS and she's about to go to college.

 

Hey girlie!

I am so happy to hear that you are taking the steps to make yourself happy. It sounds like you are involved in a lot of great activities and have a lot going for you. If this friend of yours wants to reconnect, you are not obligated to hang out with her, and I don't see any reason of directly telling her that you don't want to be friends anymore. Go out to coffee with her  or get dinner with her as a graduation celebration or before she leaves for college, but as the summer starts keep yourself busy with family. friends and vacations and you will find yourself too busy to hang out with her. Once she goes to college it will be harder to stay friends when you live far away from each other as well. Just let your friendship naturally fade away. Don't feel bad for wanting to end things with this friend. Just remember that you need to do things that keep you happy and learn from her shortcomings how to be a better friend for your new ones.

I've liked this kid since October, but I've never been brave enought to talk to him. Now with one week of school left, my friend is going to tell his friend who has a locker near mine, "Rinehart", that I think "the kid he hangs out with" is cute. Do you think it's a good idea if his friend knows?




Hey girlie. That decision is up to you. Do you want other people knowing who you like? Will it bother you? Answer these questions and then go from there!

I was lucky and my current bf is 3 1/2 years older than me... but in the begining he was a friend of a guy i had a major crush on... then we became friends (not just friends of a friends) simply by me sitting next to him and talking to him.... now he's my amazing bf!

MOD MOD MOD! I really like this guy who I sit beside in English. He's really nice when I talk to him alone but around his friends, he ignores me. Also he flirts with girls that wear...innapropriate clothing. I honestly know that he's better then that. How do I get him to notice me outside of class? He's always with his friends or other girls. Thanks Smile

 

 

Hey chickadee! I'd ask him to hang sometime! Maybe, ask him if he wants to study together for the next English test. Or, if you and a group of friends are going to the movies one weekend, invite him along. The more you get to know him, the more you'll know whether or not he truly is a good guy, or whether he's a jerk. And, he'll get to see how fab you are! Smile

MOD,
I hung out with on of my guy friends that I like. Some people say he likes me. We've been texting non stop basically for 5 days. And today we played tennis and after we were throwing the tennis balls at each other. I was expecting a text from him after telling me that he had fun because he normally texts me first. So I decided to tell him it was fun today and he replied saying, "ya haha" and then saying something else after. Do you think he likes me and why didn't he text me after we hung out?




hey girlie,

Usually when a guy likes a girl, his actions will show it..and he'll make an effort to hang out with you and see you.  The fact that you guys played tennis today means he did want to spend time with you..but don't look too much into it.  Just try to get to know him better first and develop a friendship...it's not worth diving into the meaning of every single text message and every single thing he says...sometimes boys are just flirty or being friendly.  trust me, if it's meant to happen, he'll work to make it happen--so don't rush or try too hard! Smile

MOD,
Does putting eyeliner on the inside of your eyes or the outside make them look closer? I broke my nose last night in a soccer game and it's really swollen so it makes my eyes look far apart and it's weird :/
Also, I am trying to grow my hair out but it doesn't grow very fast. what can speeed up growth? besides protecting from heat, like straightening and blow drying.

Hey girly,

There really isn't a "normal age" for this kind of thing. Feel free to talk to a guidance counselor or parent about it though if you want more specifics.
Hope This Helps!

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOd okay so i have known this guy for about 10 years. i'm 13 and he's now 14. well we used to be like best friends because our parents were(and still are) best friends. and our little brothers are best friends and play on the same baseball team. so naturally, me and him became VERY close. but we ended up going to different schools, so we grew apart. well i've had a crush on him for as long as i can remember but idk how he feels about me. he likes this other girl, but he knows she's a player and is always flirting with every guy she meets. well my best friend just now realized how great of guy he is and started talking to him. they IM on facebook all the time. i go to a majority of his baseball games because he plays with a couple kids from my school and she recently started going with me and flirting with him HARD. even though she knows i have feelings for him. and now she won't stop talking about him. HELP!p.s. i see him a coulpe times a week if that helps at all.

Hey girly,

You need to come clean to your friend and let her know how you feel. She might let up on the flirting once she sees how much she is hurting you. As for your guy drama, you might want to think about telling him how you feel about this girl he flirts with. Because you guys are so close, he might really appreciate your take on the whole situation.
Good Luck!

MODMODMOD!!! I like one of my friend's younger brother. She's 3 years older than me and her brother is my age. Next year she'll being going to college. I've always known him as her little brother. This last year I've had classes with both of them. My friend always asked how her bro is doing since school lately has been stressing him out, so I taken notice to him. He's a great guy. He just sees me as his sis' friend. Is it weird for me to like him? It worries me that my friend might think me strange to like her bro. She doesn't know I have a cruch on her bro. Should I like him or not? Help!!!!

Hey Girly,

There is absolutely nothing wierd about having a crush on your friend's brother, especially if he's as great a guy as you say he is. However, I would let your friend know that you have a crush on him. If she feels uncomfortable with your crush, then you know that it's not a good idea to pursue it any further, but if she's okay with it, then you will have a great wing girl. After all, she probably knows him better than a lot of other people.
Good Luck!

Hey Girly,

 

Do you have any friends a few grades older than you? You can totally find an excuse to go visit them at your guy's school. Maybe one of them can help you get a little closer to him.
 

Good Luck!

Hey chica. I wouldn't suggest putting your number in his yearbook because it might come off as a little strong. Instead, how about starting more conversations with him and taking it slow. Get to know each other and then offer him your number. Who knows, maybe he'll give you his first!
