How To Talk To A Girl You Like For The First Time by IamKizzbrown10(m): 6:11am On Aug 14, 2023
Maybe you have seen a girl around, and you
have been dreaming of just going up and
talking to her. However, approaching someone
for the first time is nerve-wracking in most
instances; add your new crush into the mix,
and you might be a bumbling mess.
Sometimes, though, the result is infinitely worth
the risk.
1. Make eye contact. Spend a few days
catching her gaze every now and then. Don’t
just stare at her, though; instead, shoot her
small glances until your eyes meet and she
catches you. When she does, smile slightly
and look away after a second. You’ll probably
blush as well, which is all the better – blushing
indicates you’re nervous, which is a hint that
you like her.
2. Time it right. When you do talk to her, pick
a time that’s convenient. Don’t try to get her
attention when she’s obviously involved in
something else, and try to have a bit of privacy
– you don’t have to be completely alone, but
her attention shouldn’t be too distracted.
Make the interaction extra casual (and put a
time limit on it) by talking to her while you’re
both walking somewhere else. If you walk to a
class at the same time as her, or you start
walking the same way home, this is a great
opening.
3. Start with a compliment. Paying a girl the
right compliment makes your intentions clear
right away – she’ll know instantly that you’re
interested in being more than her friend. Here
are some things to consider:
Know how to deliver a compliment. Even the
best compliment in the world will fall flat if your
delivery is off. Keep a half smile as you talk – it
will make you naturally add appealing inflection
to your voice. (Try this trick out when you
answer the phone sometime and see if you
notice a difference.) Maintain eye contact with
her, and keep the tones of your voice up, but
lower the actual volume – speaking softly
immediately communicates intimacy, and it can
make her instinctively lean in closer to hear
you. If this all sounds a bit difficult, practice it in
front of a mirror first.
As anyone who’s ever had a stalker can tell
you, there’s a fine but definite line between
flattering and creepy. With this in mind, choose
your compliment wisely. Saying something like
“You always look amazing in that shirt” can
come off as weird if you don’t know her well,
and implies that you watch her. (Even if you
do, it’s best not to spill that information
immediately.) Instead, opt for something
general but cute, such as “Your smile is
glowing today. What’s making you so happy?”
or “I thought what you said in class earlier was
really interesting.” A good compliment should
naturally lead to more conversation, instead of
just hanging awkwardly in the air after you say
it.
Know what to avoid. If you’re going to pay a
girl a compliment about her physical looks,
stick to her eyes, smile or hair. Do not
comment on her body otherwise, especially on
the first interaction.
If you want to play it extra safe, pick something
you already know she’s proud of. For instance,
if you know she’s a dedicated violinist, say
something like, “I’ve heard you’re an amazing
musician,” and use it as a way to ask her
some questions about it.
4. Keep the conversation moving. You might
be tempted to stop talking and just stare at this
girl, but don’t let your nerves get the best of
you. Allowing a long lull in the conversation will
make things feel awkward.
5. Instead, have a mental list of backup
questions you can use if you stumble on an
uncomfortable pause.
Ask about what she thinks of a shared
homework assignment or an upcoming event.
Asking for her opinion communicates that you
care about what she thinks, and see her as
more than just an object.
Use the conversation to find out more about
her, but be subtle. For instance, if you want to
find out if she already has a boyfriend, you
could casually ask, “So, anything fun planned
with your boyfriend for the weekend?” If she
doesn’t have one and she’s interested in you,
she’ll let you know immediately.
Ask open-ended questions. For instance,
instead of saying “So, have anything fun
planned for the break?” (which can be
answered with a short “yes” or “no”), say
“What are you going to do to keep busy while
school is out?” A question that requires a
detailed response is always better to keep a
conversation flowing.
6. Make her laugh (optional). If you’re sure
you’ve got a joke she’ll appreciate, give it a
shot. The goal is to show her you have an
engaging sense of humor, but you don’t want
to come off as desperate or cheesy.
If possible, crack a joke about the current
situation or something you both saw happen.
Situational humor is more meaningful than a
joke you read online.
Don’t tell a dirty joke. It’s not appropriate for a
first conversation, and it might give her the
wrong impression.
If she doesn’t get the joke, don’t explain it to
her unless she asks. Just move on quickly with
a new point of conversation.
Good humor is really attractive, but bad humor
is a complete turn off. If you can’t think of a
joke that makes sense with the situation at
hand, leave it alone.
7. Close the conversation early. Follow that old
saying – “Always leave them wanting more.”
Find a way to gracefully duck out of the
conversation before it goes stale. Good luck!
What do you have to say?
