How to actually talk to someone you like

There is someone I’m interested in and although I know that we share similar interests I have no idea how to approach them in a normal way. They once messaged me on insta out of the blue (we had barley spoken to each other) and we had a short conversation but I honestly haven’t got a clue how to approach him. Any advice

Find an interest of his and start a conversation with something like "Hey, I hear you are into (insert interest), what do you thin about (insert some question)"

Before you do that, get to know a bit about his interest.

@Ontheroad haha that’s the harsh truth 😔

@FriedDoughnuts here's the other thing... most guys love to be asked about things they know about and can talk about... especially if a woman is asking. That is a fact, so go for it!

@Ontheroad thank you! Maybe I can build up the courage to talk to them!

Showing interest in anything they’re passionate about is a always a good step
Like if you know they’re really into something (whether you’re also into it or not) you could try to bring it up in conversation cause either they would probably like talking to someone with a shared interest or at the least if they’re passionate about it I’m sure they would be happy to talk about it to someone showing a genuine interest in it

@FriedDoughnuts Well if you share classes you can just reach out like “Hey, I feel like I’m missing something. Did you get question 4 in the packet?” or whatever. It’ll also have the bonus effect of making them think you think they’re smart

@JRVanguard haha yes I guess talking about something academics related is my best shot. Maybe I’ll have the confidence to talk to them soon

@FriedDoughnuts I’m sure it’ll go well. All you need is a foot in the door😌 Sending confidence and positive vibes, go knock their socks off😊
The key is to not think, only “do”. From my experience, men like unhinged so just say whatever pops in your brain first.

I'm sorry that I can't help with your question, but it's because all I can think about is having a doughnut 🤷🏼‍♂️

Why not invite him here in SW ?

Make a post concerning the common interest area here and send him the link and say you are interested in your opinion and that you are compiling all views and opinions for a project!

Once he is here you can pursue him through PMs ..

@HumanEarth you’re so confident I could never

I'm just have that type of personality

A lot of people need alcohol to get them there

Back in school days. My friends would send me over to talk to someone for them. That was never a good a thing, because they would always like me because I was so confident.

It's all about getting over the fear and saying fuck it. Just go for it

Just say hello and strike up a conversation
FriedDoughnuts · 18-21
@AstroZombie how do you do that? I swear I have zero social skills
AstroZombie · 36-40, M
@FriedDoughnuts hmmmmmm. Not sure. I mean I can get awkward trying to meet new people, but trying is worthwhile. :/
Like any other person you talk to

@Justafantasy I barley talk to people. I only have like 3 people I talk to in a daily basis😭
@FriedDoughnuts I'm about the same for people I talk to. If you talk to someone you like the same way it usually goes alright
