i think this guy in my class is cute but i’m not that direct of a person. he sits across the room from me so we don’t cross paths much and i’m too nervous to randomly walk up to him. what should i do?

All of these ppl not bein real w what would work for social anxiety. Eye tag. Get confident being able to look at ppl. Play eye tag until it’s not eye tag anymore, until it’s just you looking at a pretty piece of art and you don’t mind if the art sees you looking at him bc u want the art to see you. (Eye tag until u know how to hold eye contact) it will be natural from there

If you’re a female this is a great boost of confidence for a man. It never happens DO IT

if ur somewhat confident i think js going up to him after class, introducing yourself and asking for his insta would b fine 👀

Even if that happens, all you’ve lost is the hope

that would mean there’s no chance though right?

Ofc the advice to balls up and just ask is definitely better, but ik I used to be too stubborn and this is what actually not only got results, but helped my confidence in the long run even if it didn’t work in the moment it helped down the line
