When you see a hot guy, you have to talk to him if you want him to become your boyfriend. It's a scary thought, but you're capable of approaching him and introducing yourself. Don't assume that you have no reason to talk to him, because being in the same room is a good enough reason to strike up a conversation. If you're still nervous about the idea, here are a few different ways to introduce yourself to him:
1. Use Social Media
If your palms sweat and pulse quickens whenever you try to approach your crush, make the first move over social media. If you work together or are in the same class, then it's not weird for you to know his name. That means you can search for his profile and add him. When you do, make sure you send him a quick message introducing yourself, so that he doesn't wonder who you are.
2. Have a Friend Make the Introduction
If your crush just so happens to be friends with one of your friends, then you don't have to worry about randomly walking up to him. You can have your pal plan a group outing that involves the two of you. Then you can have her introduce you.
3. Get Him Alone
It's easier to introduce yourself to him when you two are completely alone. If you work together, and notice that he always gets to the building early, then you should do the same. When you're the only two around, it won't be weird for you to start talking.
4. Ask Him a Question
The best way to introduce yourself is by asking him a question. That way, he'll have to answer you. If you have class together, ask him if he knows where a certain classroom is. After he tells you the information you need, you can say, "By the way, my name is..." and then you're all set!
5. Join a Club He’s in
If you know he's in your school's archery club or on a local baseball team, you should join. If you're a part of the same club or organization, you'll end up being forced to talk. Plus, the more he sees you, the more chances he'll have to fall for you.
6. Compliment Him
It might be a little strange to compliment him on his jeans. However, if he has the new phone that everyone has been talking about, you can compliment him on it and ask him if it's as good as everyone says. It's a casual way to start a conversation, so he won't be weirded out at all.
7. Just Walk up and Say Hello
Sometimes, the simplest answer is the right one. If you see someone cute, all you have to do is walk up to them and say hello. He won't think anything of it as long as you find a way to keep the conversation going.
If you introduce yourself to your crush, the worst thing he can do is look at you funny, so there's no reason to keep your distance. Your new best friend (or boyfriend) could be a conversation away. Are you able to walk up to a stranger and introduce yourself, or do you get nervous around new people?
