There is a guy on my swim team that i really like and he's really cute, we barely ever talk and i'm not sure if he even notices me even though we have been on the same team since i was eight and he was ten. I wan't to get him to notice me more and you would think that wearing a swim suit in front of the guy 5 days a week would be enough to get him to notice me but...... yeah, i'm really shy and we have never talked face to face, and i need a way for him to notice me :P I don't want to hear anybody saying that i just have to be myself, or that he'll notice me in time, i've waited 8 freaking years and i just want him to ask me out to a movie or SOMETHING. By the way i'm caucasian, 16, and have never had a boyfriend..... i know, i know but i've been waiting for the right guy!

So_Very_Confused agony auntKeep waiting. He's not the right guy.

if you are 16 and he is 18 and you have known each other 8 years and are not even friends, then he sees you as a casual team mate nothing more...

if you really can't bear to not have an answer, why don't YOU ask him to the movies...

You waited 8 years?? So you were 8 years old at the time you liked him and found him cute? I'm hoping this is a typo. Anyway why not ask him out? Maybe he's shy too? Or maybe he doesn't even think you like him so hasn't bothered? Just go up to him and be friendly. Make up anything "Hi how are you? Your really good at swimming, is it an "on the side" thing or do you wan't to be a professional swimmer e.t.c. Complimenting a guy will almost always get him interested in at least friendly talk. At least break the ice so your both in a position to talk without nervousness.

I suggest today just go up to him. Because to be honest and truthful with you if you waited eight years and he still hasn't come up to you. I'm pretty sure he's not like you doing the near future. So in this situation I thinks its up to you to be the aggressor and take your chances with you talking to him. Caus?e if you don't I feel like he won't ever do it and then you will be stuck with the "what if" and believe me,8 you don't want to be stuck with the "what if" besides what perfect way for him to notice you then by you going up to him and introducing yourself. Hi my name is blank how you doing I've noticed the way you swim in this pretty good. And if you have been doing eight years since eight years you've known this person you've been besides him, around him, there should . be no reason for you to be nervous around him at all
