Ok, I am 18 and a senior is high school and I like this sophomore who is 15. We are both in band and she sits RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!! Despite that, I can't say a word to her even if I try to force myself to do so. I have never talked to her before because I am too scared to even say "hi". This is probably I have always FAILED with girls. Can anyone tell me how I can increase my confidence and and say something.

Also, is there a chance she knows I like her? If so I am screwed.

Why are you screwed if she finds out she likes you?  That is what you want isn't it?

I'm the opposite. If I like a girl I don't shut up. They laugh and shrug me off.

She probably doesn't, nothing we can really say will help you except in the harsh way 'GROW A PAIR AND TALK TO THE GIRL'. Just see it as this, if you don't you could already be throwing away something great. What have you got to lose?

Dude you just have to look for an opening and talk to her. Simple as that... and ya your right you dont want her to find out through the grape vine that you like her, or even tell her you like her... you need to show her you like her

I know it's hard but just start off by saying hi in passing, you said you are both in band together, so why not talk about that? Ask her what she thinks of the music or something... then take it from there. :)

Or don't.

But Jared is right in a way. I wouldn't be surprised that in your head you're building her and this conversation up to be such a big thing, that when you actually have to have it, or want to have it, it's just too huge to actually find the words. Feeling nervous when talking to a pretty girl for the first time isn't unusual, regardless of age. She's in front of you in band, so I presume you play the same/ similar instruments. Ask for her help with yours, say something isn't working, or something like that. A meaningless little conversation that doesn't actually mean anything but breaks the ice. Always good.

How can she possibly know that you like her if you've never spoken to her? She's not a mind reader, and I'm guessing you don't spend all your time staring at her. Your problem is you're blowing this up into such a big issue that you're never going to feel comfortable about it all.

Just... go for it.

What I mean is when you talk to a tree you don't give a shit what the tree thinks.
