If you have a hard time talking to that one person you just can’t think of what to do try some of these:
- Use a dumb pickup line. “Let’s be like fabric softener and snuggle.” By using a pick-up line you can lighten a mood and make it easier to talk. You need to be careful because if you use an inappropriate one it will not turn out as you hoped.
- Say a comment about them. When you make a comment like, “I like your shirt.” It makes a person feel happy that you gave them a compliment. Don’t just say a comment to make them happy, actually MEAN it.
- Say Hello
By saying Hi, you can become noticed and after a while, you can get up the courage to start saying more than just a hello, and have a conversation. - Get their number.
By having their number you can text or call. With texting, you can be more of yourself and have an easier time talking to the person, and after a while, you will have the courage to talk person-to-person. - Start with a joke. You can have them laughing and break the ice. Then the person will think of you as the day goes on and how you made them laugh.
- The Hallway Bump
You can causally just walk by them and give them a little bump. Don’t bulldoze them or they will get the wrong impression. - Make Eye Contact, Smile, and Wink
Just look them right in the eye and do it! By doing this you get their attention and are showing them you’re into them. - Ask for Help in Class.
By asking for help in a class you can start a conversation and it can make you feel more comfortable around them. It could also lead to a study where you broaden your conversations to more about each other than the homework. - Start a random conversation.
You can just join in on a conversation or start one on your own. By doing this you can get to know each other as friends and you can decide if you want things to go further or not. - Get yourself noticed.
The more someone sees you the more they will think of you. Even if you just walk by them a few times throughout the day and just smile, the person will definitely be thinking about you later. Make sure not to do it too much, because they may think you’re stalking them.
All it takes is to get comfortable around them when you’re comfy you can talk about anything and who knows where that can go.
