Ever get stuck, deer in headlights-style, when you wanna chat it up with your crush?  With a little practice, you’ll never worry about what to say to your cutie.  Check out these 9 examples to work your flirting magic and get your crush! 

 

1. “So, how about last night’s game?”  Keep up with your crush’s fave team and he’ll be totally impressed by your sports knowledge.

 

2. “You look really awesome in that color!” Next time you see your crush, try complimenting him on little things, like that cute haircut he just got or how he got an A on that really hard history test.  He’ll take it as a good thing coming from you.

 

3. “This totally reminded me of you….” Tell him something that made you think of him.  It’s casual enough but lets him know he’s on your mind.

 

4. “What was the homework in English?” Next time you have class with your crush, ask him about that math question you don’t understand.  Even better, if you missed class one day, call or talk to him in person about the material you missed in class. It’s an easy excuse to talk to your crush!

 

5. “Wanna sit here?” Maybe he’s too shy to chit-chat, but simply asking him to join in with your friends will make him feel comfortable around you and want to get to know you better. 

 

6. “Hey, what’s that song?” Next time he’s rockin' on his headphones, ask him what music he’s listening to. Ask to listen to see why he loves it so much (and it’s an excuse to get close to him!).  Try listening to some of his fave songs and artists afterwards for an instant convo next time.

 

7. “So, how was The Amazing Spider-Man?” Want to know a good movie to see? Try asking your crush! Ask him about what he thought of that new comedy movie or if the new action movie was way better. It’s an easy way to talk to your crush and you’ll have a good movie to see!

 

8. “Wanna go for a walk?” Do you see your crush around the neighborhood walking his dog?  Next time, ask if you and your dog could join in! Walking your dog can actually be fun with your crush beside you talking to you one-on-one.

 

9. “So you know my friend!” Is one of your BFFs already close friends with your crush or one of his friends? Ask her to introduce you to him and to see if all three want to hang out. You guys will get to know each other better and it won’t be as awkward with your best friend around. As you two get closer, try hanging out on your own with him.

So i have to choose between going for the cute guy in my class or the sweet guy in my music class. which one?
i know that if i choose the cute one it would seem kind of superficial but it would help my rep, but if i choose the sweet one then ill come off as an orcdork with a band nerd.
help!

 

Hey girlie,

Whenever you're choosing between two guys, the best thing to do is take your time. Get to know each of them better - because how they make you feel is WAY more important than their "label" (aka "cute guy," "sweet band guy," etc.). Which one makes you laugh? Which one makes you feel like you can be yourself? Which one do you always get the most excited to see/talk to? Which one respects you? Ask yourself those questions and see which one clicks better with your personality. That's the one you should spend your time with the most Smile

hey i have this guy that i like and he knows that i like him back ( i told him ) but he acted normally and the other day he asked me to send him a picture of me in bikini. is he using my body?and should i send him a picture?please help! Frown




Hey girl,

Don't send him a picture. He seems to be very interested in your body but he hasn't even made it clear that he likes YOU and your personality. You shouldn't ever send pictures of your body to people, even if it's you in a bikini, because you never know who else he will show the picture to.

Hey girl! Go ahead and tell this guy how you really feel? I have a feeling just from reading your comment that he likes you back ;D
Whether or not you guys have a relationship isn't the question, now that you're moving. This is a principle of saying what you need to say now so you won't regret keeping silent. Who knows? Love works in mysterious ways.

Okay, so I really like this guy. I'm 13 going into 8th grade. He is 14 going into high school as a freshman. We live in two different towns and we don't go to the same school. We are both super quiet and shy. We show cattle together but we are therefore always busy then. We both are those kinda people that it is just kinda hard to talk to since we are both super shy and quiet so people would know something is up if one of us was talking to the other. We only see each other about 8 or a little more or less during the summer but only like 3 times during the school year. Every time we see each other it is at a big group thing too. I also don't know if he likes me. I like him sooooooo much! My sister thinks that we would look good together but I don't really want her to know that I like him because she will tease me a ton along with everyone else with cattle. I've also never had a BF I think he has had a GF. Any advice from anyone is super helpful! Thanks a bunch!Smile!Smile







Hey girl!  He sounds sweet and its nice that you have things in common.  The best way to get to know him is to really talk to him , and you're lucky because you have mutual interests!  Don't be worried about your sister's teasing, we've all been through that Smile Good luck! xxoo
