I don't know how to talk to my crush
Practice is always the best way. Just practicing talking to people that you're attracted to all the time or even if you're not that attracted to, just practicing chatting with anyone. So, the more you practice conversing, doing that small chat, you're going to be better at it when you do come into contact with this person that you like. So, maybe it's practicing joking around and making people laugh, so then, as soon as you're around somebody that you do like, it's easier, it just rolls off your tongue a lot easier.
How to Get a Girlfriend When You’ve Never Dated Before?
If you're wondering how to be confident the first time you kiss somebody, I think it can be beneficial to be open for feedback, and just asking the person after you kiss them how it went. You can always practice on your hand if you need to see what that's like. Just like anything in life, there's sources out there where you can learn and watch, study how other people have done it and what works for them. If you want to master anything, then it's good to learn about it. Maybe watching other videos and stuff might be helpful.
How do I know if my guy friend is into me too?
If somebody likes you and is interested in you, you will know it because he's going to give you attention and respect. They're not going to just ignore you–this is somebody that is going to be clear on their communication. People pay attention to what they care about. That's going to be the primary sign. Another sign might be that he's willing to talk about making plans in the future with you, they want to spend time with you, they want to see you again. I think a lot of times it's the subtle things. It might be the little comments he makes or how much effort he puts into wanting to spend more time with you. If he's reaching out, that's a good sign.
What if I like my BFF but she has a bf?
It's always important to be aware of what boundaries exist and to respect them. Depending on the relationship, sometimes it may make sense to just be direct and be like “Hey, what are you doing?” and call them out about their relationship. And it may be even appropriate to let them know “Hey, I like you. I have feelings. I want to develop a relationship with you. Do you want to keep things going with that person, regardless?” It just depends on the situation, of course. You can be that confident and that direct with somebody. The other thing is, if they're not interested, and unable to reciprocate, then you may have to draw some boundaries to protect yourself.
My crush probably likes my best friend
This situation is something that has happened since the beginning of time. The bottom line is that it's important to maintain your friendship and the relationship with your friend. Ultimately, it's going to be up to the person whom you both like what's going to happen, though. If it was me personally, I would allow for my friend to have the opportunity first and I would move on and find somebody else if they have claimed the person, so to speak.
