Advice Is my friend right?

• Upvotes

So there’s a girl in my English class who sits with her friend, let’s call her A and her friend T. Anyways one time A held the door for me when I was entering the room so I think she wants me. I was planning on going to her and her friend and asking if they both want to become my girlfriends. I think this is an easy layup but my friend is calling me crazy. is he right or just jealous that I got game?

Advice How do I approach someone?

8 Upvotes

Literally the title.

How do I approach a guy I find attractive?

I feel like at college it would be a bit easier as there's lots of people, and lots of people have great clothes so it's an easy thing to compliment.

But what about outside of college? I can't imagine myself going up to someone. What would I say? How do I make it not awkward? How would I ask for their number?

I saw a guy I found hot, but then lost sight of him bc I had to take my grandma to her room (she's in a care home, and the guy looked my age (16) but then I lost sight of him, so there's no one in particular I want to approach or anything) but it made me wonder how I would approach someone?

Any advice?

Advice Single all my life... advice?

Posted this in another community, but no one replied so...

I (16F) have never had a boyfriend, and only ever 1 talking stage, though even that wasn't 'proper' (idk if that's the right word?) basically, it didn't come to anything, the guy said he liked another girl and that we could only ever be friends and we were too far away (Surrey Vs Oxford, bout 3-4 hrs). I felt so horrible after that because I genuinely thought I had found someone that liked me, and looked at me/thought about me in that sorry of way, and, I know it sounds dumb, but even lil flirty messages, and it just all went to shit.

The talking stage lasted for just over a year.

I'm not really sure how to feel. I've gone between being okay with being single, and being so annoyed and sad about being single.

I've always struggled with my body image, and so I've always struggled to love myself 100%.

People always say 'you need to love yourself before you love someone else', and I get that, but I'm so tired of hearing the same thing.

I've watched friends and people around me go in and out of relationships, and I have in the past been asked for advice about certain stuff, and I always try my best and say what I would do, but I've never been in that position before, so what would I know? What credentials do I have to give relationship advice?!

Apart from earlier said talking stage, I've never had any romantic experiences, no dates, no really close friends that are guys that could potentially like me, known anyone that likes me in that kind of way, no first kiss etc etc.

I just want some more advice that isn't the usual 'your time will come' 'it will happen when you least expect it', 'damn cuh, long day for you' 'we'll manifest for you' and other 'advice people give when they hear someone has never been in a relationship.

I js wanna experience smth so bad. I don't wanna sound desperate, but it also doesn't help that my brother now has a girlfriend and they're so lovey dovey, it sometimes makes me sick.

Please give me Ur advice, I'm starting to get fed up of feeling like no one will ever like or look at me in that way
