I'm not usually a shy girl. I'm quite loud and annoying, but to make myself sound better u can say im bubbly.

i've dated before and like most girls have had guys chase after me. they range from smart law students to cool DJs to shy nerds. i dont want to sound conceited but to get to the point, im not totally un-date-able. just an average looking asian girl with a big mouth.

im a 2nd yr uni student now and at the beginning of this yr, spotted the hottest guy i have ever seen.

He is:
-eurasian
-approx 188cm tall
-president of a well-respected commerce student society
-4th yr law student

stupid me paid to join his society, but he didnt even give me the decency of just looking at me!

a few weeks later i literally bump into him. i was late for class and nearly knocked him and the wheeling cart over. turns out he works at the student enquiry center too.

since then, ive been stalking him. every wednesday i would walk by the center to get a glimpse of him. i even made a lame excuse once just to talk to him. i went in asking for the location of a lecturer's office (and i know the way off the back of my hand). my impression was that he was cold and mean. or maybe that was because he asked me general questions about what i was studying & why i wanted to see the lecturer, but i couldnt answer? regardless, he was quite indifferent.

then i go to a conference organised by his society just to see him. i bring my best office outfit to uni and get changed in the car, put on some makeup and stilettos THIS tall, and he didnt even look at me once. i was like a peacock trying to gain attention with a giant fan tail.

devastated, i confide in my sister who sweetly and without my consent, signed into my facebook account and added him.
surprisingly, he accepted. contrary to the cold and serious person i thought he was, he's actually cute- mega cute! all of his friends seem to label him the sweet one. and it makes me like the guy all the more!!

he has everything i ever wanted and more. (cringe, im so shameless).

one day he's status read that he was watching a soccer match. i "liked" his comment because soccer is a passion of mine. i hesitated for a moment but i thought, 'why should i be afraid to like your comment?!' and clicked the button. u could imagine what my expression was like when he started chatting to me thru fb. i think he was testing the waters, esp seeing as i was a random girl who added him on fb. he said 'hey', i replied 'hi'... and then i started talking about soccer and he reciprocated. eventually we began talking about our societies (since im an executive on another one now) and he wanted to know why i didnt join his executive team. if only he knew. the sad thing is i told him i saw him at the last conference but he never realised i was even there. i wanted to whine 'but we've seen each other so many times!'

by the end of the night he told me to add him on msn, if i wanted to. i did but we havent talked since and its been nearly a week now.

today i made another stupid excuse to see him in the enquiry center again but ended up being helped by another girl. for the first time, he actually looked-and stared- at me. i dont know whether he recognised me from my fb picture or not. i didnt have any plans, i just rocked up and thought id say "hi, we talked a few days ago remember?" but i felt uncomfortable with his staring and he has these really intense eyes that makes me lose my voice. so after the girl finished with the instructions, i backed out and ran off.

ADVICE soompiers! i know i sound desperate and a little calculated but honestly, i really like the guy. i thought he was serious, intelligent and cold- which i usu like. he turns out to be fun, cute and a really nice guy. id really like to get to know him and i know we'll be seeing each other at a party soon. what should i do? i know he'll never approach me first (even just as a friend) because he's arrogant enough for that. all im seeking is a chance. blush.gif

My theory always is this.....you can never lose somthing you never had to begin with. give it a shot by talking to him at the party...if he doesn't wanna talk thats his choice.... It's not like it is odd.... just make sure you have a decent topic you both are confident in talking about... most of all be yourself!! and have fun too smile.gif

wow.. that description sounds EXACTLY like my friend..

anyway, you don't really have anything to lose.
don't hesitate, just do what you first think of doing.
good luck !

wow that must have taken a while to type out lol

hmm well my advice like the others is really go for it because you might regret it if you leave it too long and someone else mightsnap him up!!

but importantly just be urself smile.gif you sound like someone whod be heaps of fun to hang out with ^^ you guys have already established a common intrest in soccer~ you never know there might be a lot of other things! do you guys have any common friends? i find that sometimes helps that way you can hang in a group and theres not as much pressure as when your just alone~ then u can feel more comfortable and you'll be more confident! goodluck!

Maybe instead of trying to get his attention by wearing pretty clothes and putting on makeup, be friendly and talk to him. You'll regret it if you don't!! wink.gif

Lol. You sound like me. Opposite of quiet, very annoying, loud and basically .. bubbly. Haha. Anyways, lmfao. It's funny because to attract someone's eyes, I usually do the things you're doing. But instead of you know, trying to get him to notice you, make yourself stand out. Say something you know that's right and witty and try to get his attention by your chosen words. And a bonus : Talk to him. Get to know him better, ask him out for coffee sometime.

Anyways, good luck with the whole love situation hun.

im forever yours, faithfully.

common, you're normally a bubbly person, muster up enough courage to talk to him face to face. wink.gif
might as well give it a go.

oh geez, you have the exact same situation as i do.
i got all dolled up and went to school hoping that guy would take a notice me,
but he doesn't, and i don't have the courage to approach him on my own.
but like everyone said before me, talk to him! tell us how it goes :]
i wish i could take my own advice :[

dude, this is so damn cute.
talk to him more on msn. tell him how you think he's a bit intimidating (trust me this works) cause then he'll be like WHAT? I'm not! I'm really nice.
and then next thing you know, he'll be sweet.
Well, that's how it worked for me. I was in a similar situation and I straight up told the guy I was scared of him cause he seems really cold and mean. He argued back, and next thing you know, he treated me differently than he did with other girls.

goodluck <3 this sounds super cute though.
