Getting to know a crush through AIM, good idea? bad idea? Options

[blackbow]

Ok, so theres this one girl at school i currently have a crush on. But you see, i'm very shy in real life and while i do talk to her whenever possible, I still get nervous and i'm not sure what to say.

i was thinking that maybe it would be a good idea to ask her for her AIM screen name (if she even has one) and get to know her better with this method and maybe help speed things up. I say speed things up because i'm often very slow when trying to get to know the girls I have crushes on and sometimes i think that my window of opputunity quickly fades away because of this.


What do you people think about getting to know a crush through AIM or any other instant messenger?

[pinayprincess]

well it depends... wen u tell ur crush that u like him/her they either turn down on u [[by actin diff round u]] or is juz nice enough to act normal...

[whomps]

Sure why not.

[yukichan]

hmm it might be a good idea...thats kinda how i got to know my crush better..

[nightsong]

Go right ahead.

I also tend to express myself better on AIM than in person.

xo, Pauline

yea think so

[xj_liana_tx]

its so much better to talk to her in real life, when you talk on aim, some people don't even care because they just ignore you in real life, it's real awkward sometimes, and they might think you are not being seroius.

Since you're shy, do the AIM way. :] But eventually, you're going to have to talk to her sooner or later...In the meantime, get her AIM SN (talk to her!) and go from there. :]

[Shattered_Hope]

if you are shy..then yes, getting to know her through aim is a good idea.

That's cool. just talk to her in person though too. if you talk too much on aim, you'll get shyer around her.

[silver-rain]

Yeah, that's a good idea- but also talk to her in person too. My boyfriend and I would talk for hours online and in person getting to know each other before we started going out- so it might work for you too.

Online is good but YOU HAVE to talk to her in person as well, as much as possible. This is not to say don't give her space from you but do pay attention to her at school, it's aggravating when someone gives two different impressions online and in person. Very aggragvating.

i think it's great. i wish my crush would do that..

[*stephinika*]

i think that would make a good start. go for it.

[*mzkandi*]

i think that is a great idea

[someflipguy]

Actually that maybe a good thing. AIM is such a good ice breaker, thats why you see so many internet relationships now a days. Just use your judgement.

Talking to her on AIM is cool but you can still talk to her at school also...

[dani41790]

hmm thats what i did with my crush and now we're going out. but uhh also talk to her in school other wise its gonna be akward since you're used to talkin on the internet instead of in person

[KrunkMuzik]

Uhh, I guess...but the original method is prefered, cuz then you're gonna get used to to talking to her on AIM, and when it comes to talking face-to-face, you really never solved your problem. Know what Im saying? So I say you should go and do it the original way, face-to-face, plus, it's ALOT more romantic. Lil computer expressions are NOTHING compared to the REAL thing. Good Luck.

it is better to talk online than face to face.....but someday you will have to talk to her face to face
