A reader, anonymous, writes (15 November 2013):

You are crushing on the girl, and being taken in by her pretty face; and it makes it hard to approach her. You fear she will reject you, and you're letting that paralyze you.

First, stop building her up to be so perfect and unapproachable in your head. Think about the things you would talk about to anyone you like, regardless of their gender. Hold off on telling her you like her. Let that be the last thing until you find out whether she is even interested in talking to you.

You walk up and say hello, to see if you can get her to smile.

That will break the ice and lower the tension you have about whether she will let you approach her. Make a joke about being a little scared to say hi, but it's not so bad.

Then wait and let her say something and respond to it. Let spontaneous conversation begin. Talk about school, things you're interested in, find out if she likes animals. Tell her about your pet(s), ask about hers. Don't act stupidly nervous. That's such a turnoff. Practice by yourself, over and over. Then do it.

She's not a goddess, she is a nice girl, waiting for you to say hello.
