Hello, people. :)

I have a crush on a guy who is in a few of my classes.

I can't exactly say what it is that attracts me to this guy; I genuinely don't know exactly what it is.

I added him on facebook and myspace; we really do have lots of things in common: we enjoy the same types of music, have a similar sense of humor, so on and so forth.

We've chatted on myspace IM and facebook IM all of twice.

The first time went okay; nothing too heavy--it was basic first-time conversation stuff. "Where are you from?" "What are your plans for the thanksgiving holiday?" ...things like that. When he had to leave, I let him leave. No biggie.

Tonight on facebook chat, I asked him about his status that was really quite funny. He said his sister did it; I told him that it was really funny nonetheless, and asked him how thanksgiving went for him.

The positive side of me wants to blame FB chat for this, because I could see that he was trying to reply, but nothing happened, and he kept going offline and coming back. He eventually just signed off and stayed off. FB chat was failing quite miserably tonight.

Just from talking to a mutual friend about this, it sounds like I'm going to have to be the forward one, since he is so quiet. This scares the bejeezus out of me, because I don't know how to go about this without seeming like some creeper.

I think it'd be quite weird to just come out and say 'I like you," because it seems like it'd scare him off.

I really do like this guy, and I don't want any tiny piece of a chance that I had with him to fade because I was too much of a wuss to act, or because I overreact and send him running for the hills.

What's a girl to do?

say it all casual like that

cause worst comes to worst hell be like oh sorry im busy i cant i dont have money make up and excuse and you can just make a joke outta it and be like you totally suck!

ill just have to see it by myself haha ill just sit by random people in the theatre and pretend like i know them

hell laugh

but hes most likely into you or he wouldnt bother responding to your stupid questions like how was your thanksgiving

cause he would either no respond back or not open the message and keep it unread like i do when im board with the person or the convo

but good luck with that if your hole reason is cause your shy

whats the worst that can happen i think your just scared to have him tell someone that you wanted to see a movie with him

trust me noones gonna be like blah blah and blah blah sitting in a tree k i s s i n g
