A female United States age 22-25, anonymous writes:

So, I've liked the same guy for 4 years, from 7th grade to now 10th grade(counting the full year 7) and I don't know what to do. We aren't really good friends, but we aren't strangers. I guess you could say we're acquaintances. He messes around with me sometimes just doing little things, but we hardly ever talk. I'm too nervous to talk to him in any group activities or anything like that. Please give advice as to what to do, I'm absolutely clueless and am a very nervous teenage girl with very little flirting/dating experience.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (11 August 2014):

Just try to get over your nerves honey. You don't have to be an expert flirter to say Hi to people and that's the way you get to make friends and meet people.

And smiling

Next time you see him in a group say "Hi, Jack" and give him a quick smile and leave it at that (unless he chats to you and asks you a question, then you should answer him) but don't feel compelled to make conversation if you can't think of anything to say.

Do this every time you see him, even if it's just quickly in passing.

When you feel comfortable just saying "Hi" (and he's saying Hi back etc), try asking him a question as well. Just a really simple boring one - "How are you?" "Lovely/lousy weather, isn't it?" "All set for the test this afternoon?" Questions that don't really need a big answer.

When you feel comfortable doing that ask him some more personal questions to find out a bit more about him. "Have you seen the latest Bond movie? What did you think?" "What music do you like?" "Are you going away on vacation this year?" etc etc etc

Just talk to him first and smile. Once you feel comfortable having a friendly chat with him - then you can think about flirting.
