i hope you can help me, im really caught up on a guy and i hardly know him. i
try to talk to him but i get so nervous.
Everyone gets nervous around people they fancy, it's
a fact of life. In fact it is believed this actually helps us appear more
attractive to the people we fancy. Apparently the blood supply moves to
the lips and other essential attractive parts of the body and that's why people
get butterflies in their stomach, because the blood supply moves away from the
stomach. How true that is, I don't know, it's just a regular thing that
appears in body language books.
every now and then he will make conversation with me (yey!) and its
usually about his best friend who is going out with my best friend. Because of
the situation i am hoping that we will get to know each other better. he also
talks about subjects a school etc. we seem quite alike. the thing is i dont know
if im ready for a boyfriend
The only way to find out, is to try having a
boyfriend.
he is also 17 and i am 16 and i dont know if he will be expecting
different things.
Do you mean sex? Most men will be expecting sex, but
it is up to you to make it known when you do or don't want it, and if he puts
pressure on you to have sex, then he probably isn't worth staying with.
like i said i really like him though but am sooo shy and i dont know if he
sees me in the same way. what should i do. should i just talk to him and try to
act confident. please help. i really really really like him
Yes, you should try and talk to him. You don't
need to act confident though, all you need to do is be yourself. If he
fancies you and you allow him to get to know you, you should eventually get
together. If you don't get together it was not meant to happen.
At this stage you need to get to know each other more, before you decide you
want to go out together, an opportunity should appear if you continue to get on
well together.
