I find it hard to talk to boys - Please help!

Hi!
So I go to a girl's secondary school and have since yr 7 of course. In that time, I haven't spoken to boys outside of my family circle and being in a girl's school, the opposite gender seems kind of foreign and scary to me. I know they're not but you know...

I went to a sixth form college taster day recently and I think it was probably one of the most terrifying days of my life (Well when I first got there anyway).
A girl showed me around, I told her my dilemma and she thankfully understood and when I was introduced to a male it actually wasn't so bad.

However, for some reason I still have that annoying feeling in the back of my mind at the thought of even meeting a boy and I don't know what to do. I have to get over this at some point!!!

We aren't aliens, we are like girls, but just with different body parts :P

Have confidence honey :smile:

Talk to a boy, like you would a friend.

"What music you like?"

"Did you see the X factor?

"YUCK! ZOOLANDER 2 SUCKED!"

Stuff like that, break the ice.

And you know what? The more you do it, the easier it gets

Further proof that women make zero sense...
You are not use to talking to boys. Just talk to boys the same way you talk to females, end of the day we all humans.

There's a theory amongst immature teenage boys that women have no logic to their actions and don't make any sense. Ignore it.

Just give it some time, you'll find it more than comfortable before you know it. There's not a guy going who doesn't like talking to girls, just say hi and start chatting. You'll get a positive response 95% of the time.

Here's some friendly advice, there are two types of guys to ignore:
********s like me who will just take the piss out of you.
And ****bois like this guy I just quoted.

This is cute. Hehe. Just talk to them the way you talk to your friends or family. I usually don't talk to a stranger male unless they talk to me first. Just don't stress yourself that you should really talk to them whenever you see one. :smile:
