Okay so here's whats up. There's this guy who goes to my school, I know him but not very well. Anyhow we always comment on each others xanga and what not. It's like I know him more online then in person, so when I see him in person it's like really weird. Today I saw him standing in lines waiting to buy a ticket and I immediately saw him and he looks at me and I move my eyes away.

I'm not sure if he noticed.. so I'm in line for the same thing and I know his there but I'm acting as if I don't know his there. So I'm talking with my friend and I look up and see that he is looking at me and it's like a game where we look at one another other than look away type deal. GAWD... anyhow... is it weird for me to act this way when it's not like I even met him through xanga first.. I met him in person. I want to talk to him without having to feel strange any ideas on how to start talking to him without it being weird for the both of us? Because I think he feels that way too.. I want to put an end to the awkwardness of it.

oooh that is kinda weird. I was like that with some of the guys too.

i know it's strange, but the best thing to do is try just walking by and saying hi to him(letting him know that you acknowledge he's there) at first to break the tension. Then maybe try going up and talking about something later on.. like maybe something funny you talked about in the internet. That way, you can both warm up to each other and being around each other in person.

I'm sure you should just talk to him! Fight the scary bunnies and go for it. It'll probably be great to expand your friendship!! ^^

Another great point...

that's a great start...stole the words right out of my mouth.

...you can talk about each other's xanga...talk about family...your family and where you were born then ask him, strike up a conversation about what you like to do, (hobbies, etc.) your opinions on things he likes to do (ask him about it). Or you can even talk about fashion trends..hell, what do I know? I'm giving small talk topics to talk about.

But some advice for you...

...don't be too open with him at first...gain his trust first. IF he sees you're shy and guarded, it's HIS job to make you feel comfortable and to break out of your shell. If he does that over time then you have yourself a great catch. If not, move on and don't weep when he closes the door.

Dont reveal too much about yourself...(Emotional weaknesses, etc.) Keep the chat light but down to the point.

That's definitely not a bad start...see what you can come up with!

Happens to me with a lot of people. Sucks. You just have to try to talk to them and somehow deal with it to get your real friendship back not just online. Try not to talk about awkward subjects online that you would NEVER ever say in person so it's not as weird when you see him and remember what you said. I don't know if that helped, sorry.

Just say "hey" to him. Acknowledge his prescense or you might be stuck like that for awhile with him. MAKE THE FIRST MOVE!!

well for me, hyperness works the best. just when you're really hyper and when he's around, go up to him and yell out Hi! that's what happens to me. i go up to someone that i met online&want to talk to, and yell out hi. and just act casually, talking about what got me hyper. smile alot and laugh. it helps fight the shyness.
