Hi, my name is Ken. I'm 21 year old, still in college. I'm here to seek for relationship advices hopefully will me onto the right direction.

I met this girl at a diversity camp that we both attended this past weekend. When I first saw her, I was totally astounded by her outer appearance and her most beautiful smile. I stepped forward and went up to talked with her several times afterward. The more we chatted however, the more I found myself attracted to her. She exihibits almost every quality that I would hope to have for my ideal girlfriend. She is smart; she has great smile; she is young and pretty. she is a rather quiet girl but she's very friendly, caring and she is really nice.

The problem is that the program only last two days long, so I didn't have much of opportunities to approach her. She's from Ohio, and I'm Pennsylvania. All I have from her when we left is her school name and her email address. I want to get back in touch with her. I want to write her an email, maybe asking her for her phone number or her screename or something. But I don't know if that's appropriate or is the right thing to do. Should I tell her that I like her or not?

I'm a rather shy guy which make the matter worse. Previously, I already had failing relationsihp with two other girls. I don't want to make this my third failure. I really want to do it good this time. I'm very confused. Can you please help me out???

Hi!

If you like this girl as much as you say you do, then you must take this opportunity to tell her! I would get her phone number, have a chat, and arrange a time and a place to meet, have some fun, get to know her better, then when you think it is the best moment, look into her eyes and tell her how you feel. You're 21, more than capable of travelling to meet this girl, face-to-face is alwayd the best way to tell a girl how you feel. She sounds like an intelligent girl, and i'm sure she would be willing to give it a try. Keeping an emotion such as love bottled up is one of the worst things you can do, because it haunts you for a long time, and then you feel regret. If she does reject you, at least stay friends, and hope that one day she will change her mind

As for the shyness. All that could disappear after spending some time with her, and getting relaxed and your confidence boosted. Remember, if she didn't like you, then why would she give you details? Don't let memories of relationships interfere with you, because it has no reason to be involved with you and this girl. This is a fresh start! Everytime you enter a new relationship, think that.

Go for it, get in contact, and speak your heart.

Best of Luck mate, Amore

First I'd like to share with you alittle hope. I too am originally from PA and my fiancee is from OH. We get along great and we've both been through some tough relationships in the past. The thing that caused him to take a chance with me was when I told him that God might promise you a soulmate ... but He never said your soulmate was living in the same area as you.

Love is to take risks. She could be the one for all you know. Don't dwell on your past relationships... but just be the best person you can be and don't be afraid to look up information about bettering yourself so that you don't make the same mistakes from your past relationships. Relationships require being educated too. Build a friendship with her to start with as a foundation in order for a relationship to stand firm on. When you have that, you got a good thing!

I wish you the best and good luck!

Why not write her an email just to say hello and go from there. She must have liked you in the first place to give you her email.
