So I like this guy, I’m female and 18, he’s 20. I wouldn’t call us friends but I wouldn’t call us just acquaintances. I’m more of the shy, quiet thinker. While he’s usually quite talkative, but I don’t mind this because he’s really genuine, smart and I love to hear him talk. I could listen for hours. We used to talk quite a bit because we live close to each other and he attends a college I was interested in. But lately we don’t talk often anymore. When I speak to him he isn’t usually his chatty self, which makes it difficult for me because I’m not very chatty at all. My friend talks to him often and she has no problem talking with him. I also noticed that even when we did talk, I always initiated the conversation. How can I get his attention?

I think you need to just jump out of your comfort zone. Be a little daring and chat him up as much as possible, if something still seems off, talk to him about it. Tell him he seems different, and you’re curious to see if he’s alright. Opening up to him and showing that you care will make you seem more inviting.

I like [b]Dotcomm3’s[/b] advice to get out of your comfort zone since what you’ve been doing isn’t working. 🙂 But I’d take it a step further than talking. There are lots of ways to show you’re interested that have nothing to do with talk. 😎 If you get my book, Think & Date Like A Man, that you can download at this link, [url]http://www.askapril.com/relationship-dating-advice/think-and-date-like-a-man.html[/url], you’ll learn ALL the tips for getting his attention with your appearance and your body language.

Flirting and dialing up your sexuality and romantic interest is exactly what I’d recommend here, since your friend clearly likes you, but seems to be having trouble asking you out. If you make it clear to him that you’re interested in him, it’s a lot more likely that he’ll ask you out. If he’s not sure where you stand, he’ll probably just sit back and do more of the same.
