I like this guy but he is the quiet type - how should I approach him?

Question - (4 October 2006) 1 Answers - (Newest, 5 October 2006)
A female United Kingdom, *ush123 writes:

I have recently returned to college to do a higher level course. I have met (well, not actually spoken to as of yet) a guy who is a little older than me (a year and a half at most) but he seems really quiet. Thing is, I used to be really quiet (couple years ago, back in school). He is not like any of the other guys I have been with - they have been quite loud and downright show-offs!

In my college group, this guy only talks to two guys. (I am one of only two girls, by the way). He does not have anything to do with anyone else in the group and they have nothing to do with him.

(I am not the sort of person to immediately judge someone simply by what everyone else says about them).

Trouble is, he keeps looking at me and he looks a little bit lost/worried, but then he looks away and smiles! He does it mostly when the other two guys are not looking. One of the other two guys is a bit different to the one in question and he thinks I like him (the second guy), but I can assure you I don't.

Neither me or the 'quiet guy' have spoken to each other yet, but he does keep looking at me in particular and I would really like to get to know this guy - he may NOT be 'the one' but you never know until you try... right?????

Please help, if you would like to admit that I might have a crush on this guy, I will do so quite happily, but there is something about him that makes me feel like I want to get to know him better as he seems a lot different to the other guys I have been with in the past (could that be where I was going wrong - wanting to get with the 'louder' guys?).

Would be grateful if anyone could tell me if it would be worth making an effort to talk to this guy and/or how to go about doing so?

Thanks! From a girl with a big crush on a new guy!

Hi

Well, it seems like its defanantly worth the effort to get to know this guy. It sounds like you are really into him and you just need someone to give you that extra push and say "go for it" Have you told any of your friends about this? In my experience, talking to 1 of your best friend is really helpful as they know you best and know whats good for you! Try to catch him on his own sometime, mabye after college and just talk casulay about college and stuff. If he seems alright, ask him to go see a movie with you or somthing like that.

Although you have gone wrong with louder guys in the past, It seems to me like there might be somthing holding you back from approaching this guy. Mabye you think he is too quiet for you and doesnt have much confidence and this is putting you off. Sorry if im wrong about this. But you obviously really like him so you gotta talk to him. You've got nothing to lose. Let me know how it goes.
