If you’re in class together, ask about the homework assignment or ask your crush for help understanding the material. If you are in a club together, strike up a conversation about the theme of the club. Ask your crush about themselves. Ask how their day is going. Ask if they’re excited about anything this weekend. It’s easy!
If you are being true to yourself and doing the things that you really want to do, you will put more passion into those things. Many people find passion attractive.
Ask them to take a walk with you: home from school, or between classes, or around the block. Ask your crush to step outside with you for a second. You can say “Can I talk to you alone for a minute?” or “Want to walk to class with me?” Especially don’t ask someone out in front of their friends! Your crush might be embarrassed, or they might not want to talk about this in front of a bunch of people. You might be rejected just because your crush feels uncomfortable.
Think of it like jumping into cold water. You can spend all day staring at the water, feeling it with your toes, and thinking about how cold it will be. On the other hand, you can push your mind aside and jump in – at which point all you have to worry about is swimming, adjusting, or getting out. If you can’t bring yourself to do it, set yourself an incentive. Say, “I need to ask [my crush] out before Friday, or else I can’t go to the party on Friday night. " Give yourself a reason to cut through your hesitation and get it over with.
If there is a school dance coming up, ask your crush to go as your date. This can be a great opportunity to show someone how you feel. Keep in mind that unless you explicitly agree upon it, one date to date a dance does not necessarily mean that the two of you are “going out. "
