I've known the guy for 3 years and he's always been in a few of my classes.
I really like him but he's so shy it's like impossible to approach him x.x ... He only have a few friends and we never hang out... I can't even use the "I don't undestand this problem" because I do better in the class we're in >.> I'm super shy and quiet too so when I tried to talk to him, he always ended up saying "What did you say/Pardon?" mellow.gif

Advices would be great =D

Maybe you can try complimenting him about something, like his shirt. And even if you already know how to do a problem, you can pretend you don't and get him to show you anyway.

If he's shy, wouldn't it be easier to approach him? Never mind.

Speak up. Just start off with a greeting several times a week. Then go onto saying hi everyday. Then start passing notes during class or talking about random things during breaks. Then go into conversations. As you guys get to know each other, maybe something could happen.

Sneak up behind him and shout his name as loud as you can once you get close enough.

I honestly think this will work. Don't ask why.

Ask him if he needs some help on the problem.

Talk to him more. Be frendly and smile biggrin.gif.

Be open..but NOT TOO OPEN.
Just dont get him annoyed.
Thats a good start biggrin.gif.

huh.... I think the problem is in you lol.
If someone is really quiet, it should be pretty easy to approach him.
but you're also shy, so I guess the problem is in you lol.

well you just gotta say something, maybe borrow something from him lol.

the thing you dont know about shy guys is.. they really want to talk to you.. but is shy.. so if you just randomly walk up everytime and just talk to them it'll make their lives easier.. there is a reason their shy.. its because when they tried to walk up they get denied it some way ..

Awwww....2 shy ppl....this's soooo cute...hahahahahha...!!!

To be honest with u....i really dont know what u can do....
I'm shy too...so...
Ermmm...I think that talking about school stuff would be a good start...like...helping him with h/w or whateva...then build it up...
Then u might invite him for a meal or smth... or some after school stuff...
I agree with nagel...since his shy...i bet inside, his begging for u to talk to him ^^

Understandable. I'm super shy too and when I talk...people would go 'Would you repeat that?'. I'm not sure...but I suggest trying to talk to him more? Get to know him a little and hopefully everything for both of you goes well. Jeez I'm giving you advice but when it comes to my own situation I'm as solid as a statue.
