What to say when he looks your way

 
 

Check these out, too...

  • How to deal with a bad kisser
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.

Hey luvurself19, try bringing it up when you and your bro are talking. Ask him if he has been thinking about college and if so which ones he'd like to go to. Ask him if you have to have good grades to get in, and that if he wanted you to you could help him. The good thing is that he has two years to go, and that's enough time to get his grades up. So if you can't convince him to accept your help in one day, you have a lot of time to persuade him. Hope this helps! Xoxo

okay so i need help. My brother is a really really good athlete and he could have a chance of going on a scholarship to a good school because of it. Problem is his grades suck. As in they are really bad. He has two years of high school left and i really want him to do a better job so he can get into a good collage. Im really smart so i was thinking of helping him but i dont know how to do that without it being wierd (because i'm two years younger than him), him getting mad, or taking up too much time (I have school and sports too). If he dosent get his grades up im afraid he isn't going to collage at all! Please help me figure out how to help him! Lynae P.

Flip-flops are my favorite shoe and I wear them all the time. The only problem is, I don't know where I could get comfortable flip flops. I don't mind spending a little more money if I can wear them for a while. So are there any good places to get cute, comfy flip flops and sandals?




Hey babe, try getting flip flops from Reef. They are a li'l more expensive, but not too bad. Plus, they're super comfy and adorable.

There aren't many guys at my school that i really like, i know i'll probably meet some new ones next year, but i want to meet a nice, sweet guy outside of school. where are some places i meet them? Oh and is it okay if i mostly like guys outside of my race? i always find myself attracted to them more than the ones in my own.




Hey babe, meeting guys can be tricky because unfortunately, they never seem to show up when you're lookin' for 'em. On the plus side, the sweetest ones will pop up when you're least expecting it, and then you'll have an awesome surprise. But if you're looking for some guys outside of school, the best thing to do is join a group or club that's not connected to your school, like 4-H or a church group. See what's available in your area for your age group. And it is totally okay to like guys of different races. We're all humans, after all.
