I really don't know what to do right now...

I like a guy who's 2 years older than me and has graduated from the school I'm currently going to. I just recently found him on Facebook (I know, kinda creepy) and I don't know if I should send him a message, friend request him, etc. (I'm afraid I'll be rejected or something). And, I highly doubt he knows who I am and I think communicating with him through Facebook all of a sudden would be a little weird...

I just don't know what I should...How do I approach this? Because I want to talk with him and get to know him.

I'd greatly appreciate any feedback! :-)

Thanks!

Hey theres no harm in adding him if he accepts thats great if not its not a big deal at least you tried. You can just say something like hey i liked your pic so i thought i'd add you add a little wink at the end lol just a little flirtyness coz guys usually respond well to being complimented well just like everyone else x

sestephe3 agony auntThanks for the feedback!

Samantha x, I'm thinking of saying something like that when I send the request. I'm hoping he accepts then lol. But, I'm just not sure how to make conversation with him from there, though... (Don't want to seem like a weirdo) in doing so..

I guess it can't hurt to try! Lots of people accept friend requests from people they don't know, or may not know very well. So he may not mind. And you could always add a little note with the request, saying who you are. Maybe something like, "Hey, you went to the school I go to!" so he will know why you are sending the request.

If he refuses the request, nevermind! Give yourself a massive pat on the back though for trying! But if he accepts, and you would like to try and talk to him (if you are feeling particularly brave!), you could maybe write a little message on his wall, just saying "Thanks for adding me!", something like that. I do that sometimes, because I think it helps people feel comfortable to talk to me if they would like to. If not, then it doesn't matter, it will simply appear polite and friendly.

Just some suggestions! It really is your choice whether to send a request or not though, so go with what your gut is telling you. Good luck! x

Be bold and make a friend request. It cant do any harm. And if he did ignore it, no one else need know x
