Well... I met this girl in my chemistry class named Cristina or Christina not sure which. Well I haven't really talked to her yet... but for some reason I like her... On the first day of school she came up to me and introduced her self...I said hey back to her and all but then I left!! I ruined a good chance to talk to her!! Well sometimes I see her looking at me but it might be that I look at there and then she looks at me cause I look at her...lol very confusing.... My friends keep telling me to ask her out but I don't think I should...she is kind of out of my league...she is a Junior in High school and I'm a sophomore. She is very popular and I'm not so popular.... and she hangs out with other popular people!! so I don't know what to do.... Home coming is coming up soon...and I would like to go with her.... but I'm too scared to ask... I'm not sure if she is going out with anyone...She probably is but not sure...I've only seen her hang out once with this guy but I don't think they are going out... if any has any advice please post it... Thanks!!

I would like a female point of view here also!!

Ask her if she wants to shag now or shag later..

Play with her. Just kinda ask her like who she is going to homecoming with. If she says no one, be like Yeah I think I might go by myself too, well unless if I can find a date. If she says something even remotely close that she likes ya, go for it.

yea I think I'm going to that...it's a good idea I guess... But I would like a female point of view...of what I should do....

It worked for me... :D

I don't think that there is a age difference... She is a junior I think average juniors are about 16 years old... I know lots of sophomores that are 15 years old and will be 16... I'm 16 and I'll be 17 next June...so I'm a older sophomore...

I forgot to mention the age thing on the first post..

This is good (that she introduced herself to you, not that you left). Shows that she is pretty friendly and outgoing, and at least she isn't repulsed by you, yet.

Well... I met this girl in my chemistry class named Cristina or Christina not sure which.
This is bad. Find out her name, don't ask her. Then ASAP, you should make it a point to say hello to her (by name- i.e. "Hey Christina"), she's in your class so it shouldn't be all that odd. You can even talk about something in class, a quiz coming up, etc. Hopefully you'll need to choose lab partners soon! :D

She's only 'out of your league' in your head. Homecoming might be quite an event to ask her out to. See if you can discover things she might like (maybe overhear her talk about a band she likes or something about her -clothes, notes, something) that would give you something to talk about.

For example, I'm married but if I weren't, there's a very nice woman at work who talks about her child, clubs she likes, music, etc. If i were interested in her, I would hit upon those topics to get the ball rolling.

Thanks... I think her name is Cristina wit out the H... And I think I know what kind of music she like s..I think it's R&B and Hip hop... And I hate those...I'm into ROCK!! Well I g2g...school tomorrow .. Keep posting!!

Dude! Just talk to her. You'd be surprised how well that works.

Well.. small talk is always good...

Also, don't make yourself look like a fool, but women sometimes enjoy to laugh, and if you know how to make them laugh without being a complete idiot, it helps alot...

Once you get her to laughing and smiling, complement her, on things like her smile, etc...

Do that for a few days till you can talk freely, and its easy to talk to her then maybe ask about dates to homecomming.. Don't come off to strong at first...

You have a great opportunity to start up a conversation with her since she is in your class. Believe me, girls get just as nervous as boys do. Some of us are just better at hiding it than others. Just remember that :) You have two good signs she may be interested in you. One, her introducing herself to you, and two always looking at you. Even if she is looking at you to see if you are looking at her, that still means there is interest there. If Homecoming is getting near you better start getting busy. Good luck with her and let us know how it works out! Ahhh, young love. I almost forgot about all the angst you go through at the age, but it sure is a helluva ride ;)

Isnt cristina and christina pronounced the same?

Get the scoop on her from people, find out what she likes. Then start up a conversation with her, about that. Its a cheap trick, but girls always fall for it.

lol keep us updated on what happens ;)

i'm a lame as* myself to shy to ask the girls out lol /me kicks myself

Say "Hello <insert name>, you have very nice legs....can I take a picture of them?"

*laughs to self*

Think of it this way, you only live once, you may look back on it and think 'what if', just ask her out. ;)

More advice will cost ya :stickout

*singing* I gave my love a chicken, that had no bones...

I think some of us oldies forget teenage love (I know I do). But some simple advice is:

- Be yourself and remember she's a person too
- Girls don't tend to kill you when you talk to them so you shouldn't be nervous.. unless you're a Praying Mantis.
- Treat her as you would a friend and you'll feel less like you have to 'perform'.
- Find out what you have in common rather than what you don't. Interestingly enough sometimes it's the differences between people that makes them closer.

Finally, just remember that girls (or guys), come and go. You might not spend the rest of your life with this girl, but you might just find out in years to come that it was a good time and worth remembering. The best thing to do is to just relax, and enjoy your time with her, regardless of how it turns out. You might get the girl, you might get a good friend - both are pretty good at the end of the day.

Seems like a nice girl from what you've said, and lets face it - a good looking girl as well is always icing on the cake :) Life's for the living, so enjoy it whatever happens

.. but I think it's spelled differently :)

insert this comment after 'peteny's post on the previous page and it'll make sense

There is nothing in the spellings. If you are unable to get that girl you can try for some other.

Yea...well thanks...I'm going to see that girl next monday...so I'm going to to try to talk to her... 2 weeks till homecoming!! Well I'll live if she doesnt like me... I just hope she does... hehe..

Best of luck Marko on your mission. Make sure you dont stink. hehe...:laugh:

Here's the deal. Pretty girls often don't get asked out by 'common' looking boys because those boys always assume she is out of his league. The truth is, she is probably very tired of those pretty boys being the only ones that ask her out, and would be much more happy with some one that is 'real'
Some one she doesn't have to keep her lipstick on straight for. Some one who won't spend more time in the bathroom combing his hair than a girl does.
Some one who isn't worried about keeping up an image for other people.
Some one who can pass by a mirror without checking himself.
Some one with personality.
You just might be that 'some one' she is intrested in.
Now I should tell you time is getting short and it's possible that some pretty boy has asked her, but she is waiting . . .
So you better hurry up!

*If she turns you down what have you lost? Nothing. Even creeps get dates. You know how? It's called the law of averages. If a creep asks out 100 girls, one is bound to accept. I don't believe you are a creep, so your number should be much lower than that.
Smile and have a good day, no matter what.

Heh, this reminds me of a guy I knew years ago. Creepy guy that would ask any girl that came within grabbing distance of him if they'd gone home and sleep with him. Most of the girls I knew at the time thought he was the most appaling human being they knew. His philosophy was the same - ask out 100 and 1 will usually say yes, and sure enough he'd usually get a girl for the night.

However his quality to quantity ratio was pretty low. :)

Good tips by ATST :love:

Speaking as a female, get to know her...talk to her, invite her for coffee (no not at your place! :mad: ) become friends, then the world is your oyster :cool:

Talk about what :eek:

Oh yea then what? :D

Ask her to marry you? I don't know, I've never done this before! :( hehe.

you could always try "heh" "lol" ":eek: " :rolleyes:

Hide out. Take photos of her. Build an altar in your closet. Paste the photos above the altar. Follow her to the beauty shop and pick up bits of her hair after she's had a cut.

Place whithered flowers on the altar along with a couple dozen candles and the hair. Light the candles and pray in a trance-like state from the moment you get home at night until daybreak.

Do this daily, without fail, for the next seven years. I guarantee that if you do so, this process will work for you.

Ok, now what :)

At least you'll know whether it's really love at first sight. :D

When you ask and get turned down, it only hurts for a couple days cause you are in high school and there are plenty of pretty women to keep that mind going...

If its like the chemistry class I took, its boring as watching bread mold. I went to thinkgeek.com, got some caffienated mints and snuck the girl beside me one. She liked it and got all happy beside me, and she knew I was there to talk to. Go for it..

As for conversation starters, I usual say in a joking fashion, "What are your views on genetic manipulation?" You'd be surprised the reactions I've gotten from that one sentence and what you can pick up about the person from it. Sometimes the girl just stares at me with a raised eyebrow and I crack up laughing and she starts laughing as well. The ice has been broken. Sometimes you'll get one who actually has an opinion on it, and you'll get a girl that you can actually have a meaningful conversation, and she'll see your different from the rest and there is something about you. Either way, its somethin new from the usual "I'm not the prettiest guy in here but I'm the only one talking to you" or "Did it hurt when you fell from heaven"? They'll appreciate it and will get interested.

ooooOOOOoooo

One out of the books,
Lick your fingure and toucher her, then say "Lets get you out of those wet clothes."

*laughs at how lame it is* :stickout :D

HEHe...thats funny... well so any one want to give me a opening line when I go talk to her?? :)

Go Rent the Tao of Steve.

It will answer all your questions... :cool:


Wow... Kind of wierd thinking of High school... I was like the computer geek/joke that actually had a girlfriend. :)

Aaaahhh.... Memories... Twins...

God I was cool in High school... Wonder where all that coolness went? Ok, I know... It left town with the hair... :mad:

Good luck my friend. Ultimately, just be yourself, and just treat her like she is a human being. I hear girls dig that.

How about "Hello"? It isn't clear if you've introduced yourself to her; if not, you could tell her your name as well.

Beyond that, well, I'm 21 and still hopelessly single, so I'm afraid I can't help much.

Cperciva, when I turn 18, we'll go out bar hopping. I'll hook ya up with a good women, maybe while I'm at it, I'll hook myself up with one too.

Hey!! no one has posted any good pening lines!! :( :bawling:

How 'bout the casual "Sup Baby?" Or, what about "Damn you lookin fine today"? Okay in all seriousness, just go talk to her. Be loose, just think of her as one of your bud's.

that may be a quick way to loose her too...but talking would be the key ;-)

I don't drink.

Just keep in mind that I'm looking for a female age 20-22, IQ 140+, intending to take at least a Masters degree from a first tier university in a scientific or medical field, with musical talent (in a classical instrument) of professional or near-professional calibre.

Hmm, that might be part of the problem.

lol people expect so much i bet oyu if i was tested my iq would in the negatives...jk
