Be Friends with the Guy You Like

You are here because you want a hot guy to be your friend (for now). Or you just clicked on the wrong thing.

Steps

  1. Get to know a friend of the boy you like. If he has a friend who's a girl, get to know her. You will get to hang out with him when she is with him. Try to be included in a group activity with them so that you can talk to the boy.
  2. Smile and say "Hi" whenever you see him. After a while, strike up a conversation following the "Hello", preferably about something he likes (sports teams, hobbies etc.) If you have classes or lunch with this boy, that would be a good time to do so. If you are too scared to speak to him in person, then try social networking websites like Facebook or Myspace. Using these can be easier than talking face to face and good ice-breaker, just remember its hard to have a proper friendship only online.
  3. Flirt often. Be careful to not overdo it. You don't want to look desperate or pushy. Just look at him and wait until he looks at you-- then look away. That signals that you are interested. Laugh a lot!!
  4. Get him to notice you. You don't want him to think of you as a friend forever. Give him compliments and find little ways to touch him.
  5. Be honest. Don't pretend to be somebody you're not. Guys like an honest girl and not drama queens.
  6. Be a good friend. Before you can become his girlfriend, you have to be able to keep his secrets. Don't betray him by telling someone the things he tells you in confidence. Make him trust you so that he can talk to you about anything. This could lead to him believing that you are good girlfriend material.
  7. Ask him out after at least a month of being friends. If he says no, you guys can still be buddies. If he says yes, then you've done it! But only ask him/her out when you are sure that he/she likes you! Or it might go wrong! But, if you're satisfied with your new friendship, then you could suggest big groups get together instead and find ways to talk to your crush alone.

Tips

  • When he says leave him alone, don't take it personally. He probably has just had a rough day and if you nag him about it, he will resent you or feel smothered.
  • If he likes someone other than you, don't try to get him to not like her. Or even telling him that you know that she isn't interested. It could end up ruining your friendship. If he's happy, you should be happy for him.
  • Don't be too desperate for attention. The time will come when he starts to notice you.
  • Be yourself. If you're wearing clothes and make up that feels uncomfortable, he will see that and might not be interested in you or, he will like the person you are pretending to be.
  • Don't obsess over him. If it turns out that he doesn't like you, you could be truly hurt.
  • Don't point out all of his flaws. Instead, point out the things you like about him.
  • Don't tell him you love him right away. Guys mature slower than girls. He could be weirded out and he probably won't have his feelings about you sorted out yet.
  • Don't ask too soon.
  • Don't pretend to be stupid, laugh too much or just be really weird around him! it can ruin your chances! He'll think you're an airhead (or dehydrated)!
  • Don't call him 20 times a day. Let him call you, and don't be too excited when you answer the phone. It might creep him out. You want to act a little excited after a while of flirting, but only a little to be cute.
  • Don't be too available. If he finds out that he can have you whenever he wants, he will use you. Instead, play hard to get!

Warnings

  • If he has a girlfriend, stay away. She might get jealous. You're going to be embarrassed if you get in a fight with her in front of the guy you like, but not always their girlfriends will be mean, if they are trying to get to their good side. Talk with his girlfriend more and try to at least become friends so she won't feel as threatened later on when you're talking to him. If she shows that she doesn't like you, don't bother.
