Hi, I am 16 and a junior in high school. I was new in my freshman year, so I kept kind of quiet and was shy. Flash forward 2 years; I am more outgoing, have a lot of friends, am an amazing basketball player, etc. The problem is, I think I made some bad first impressions.
Anyway, there is this really hot girl in my grade that I never really met before. I'd rate her a 9 maybe 9.5, but I never had any classes with her. I talked to a few of her friends and we have the exact same tastes in music (Angels and Airwaves), Tv, movies, etc. She has a myspace, but I don't want to post it here.
Even though she mught be a little out of my league (extremely popular), I really like her and want to take a shot at it. I'll have a fresh slate to work on and I figure I could always use her to get other girls if necessary.
I don't know how to approach it though. I can't just walk up to her and start talking. I spoke to her maybe once in 3 years (wish I had some classes with her). She did the morning show during advisory for awhile though.
I have a few friends in her Math class that sit at her table. They know I like her, and they said they would put in a good word for me, lol. I figure it couldn't hurt as an introduction. They started talking about how I was thinking about asking some girl out (her best friend), but decided not to. This should get her interest since they are talking about her best friend and make her interested in me because I decided not to ask her out. Hopefully, a discussion will start and they will mention how I am trying out for varsity next year and some other good stuff.
Yeah, I know it sounds kind of stupid. What do you think? After this, I'll probably try to approach her at lunch and start talking about music or something. Maybe I'll tell her that I'll burn a cd for her or something.
I am not really looking to "score" right away with her. I just want to establish a nice relationship first. Like I said before, even if it doesn't work, other girls will most likely be interested in me since she is so popular. My parents are very overprotective anyway which is a whole other issue.
We have PSSA testing tommorrow, so maybe I'll try to get on the same bus as her and start talking during the 30 minute ride. She is always with her friends and I am pretty well aquainted with them.
Well, what do you guys think? Any tips from the pros here? I'll give reps of course.
