Girl i see every morning in the bus

Hi all,

Every morning i see this girl on my school bus, and i pretty much end up sitting next to her cause all the other seats are pretty much preoccupied. She doesn't say much and shes about a year younger than I am. I see her around school but never speaking to guys. Overtime I sort had a growing interest but i never took the extra step to do anything. Sometimes i do speak to her for a few moments but she seems really shy. Only time i actually seen her smile and excited when i said "I saw your art piece at the art exhibition!". When i do speak to her, she sort of smirks smiles and looks at me then turns away, fidgets a lot... Most of the times in the morning in the bus shes almost silent... Any ideas?

...is getting her drunk an option?

Keep talking to her... make it slightly more flirty... see how she responds
Asking her if she wants to get a coffee or something (off the bus preferably) would be a good plan I reckon!

I would like to but she never seems to say much. I guess im the shy type too so its difficult. NO getting drunk is not an option. Don't think shes the type of girl who parties.

Bad luck with staying anonymous. Well, as long as you're definitely on the same bus for a bit longer just keep going as things are, but up the ante slightly. Talk to her every day even if it's just a hello. Ask her stuff about her life etc. If there's some big event in the news or whatever talk about that. Say you like her new shoes or something. Anything to get chatting! :smile:

I'm the really shy type of girl, and I think what would work is if you just made a few jokes and said something about what happend to you the other day or something and see how she responds. What you really need is an ice breaker.

True. Deliberately trip up in front of her and do the "Ahh... sssssssst....... Ahh.... sssssssssst...... aah..... ssssssssssst" like Peter in Family Guy. Then she'll be like "are you OK?" and you can talk to her. But throw in a few more "aah.... ssssssssst..." first because it's funny.
She seems interested in you (judging by the way you say she behaves around you). I don't think flirting is a good idea, she doesn't seem the type. I think quite people tend to be put off when people they don't know very well flirt with them. Talk about Art, ask her if she can show you any more of her work, ask her what inspires her, what they mean etc. You two are bound to have a great coversation if nothing at the least.

Hmm yeah i suppose...but i really don't know her. All i see is her hanging out with a bunch of girls. And since we are in different grades, makes it harder for me.

Light flirting is fine. In my experience, shy girls like it because it's a "cue", if you just talk they're thinking that maybe you;re just being polite. Of course like I said he should keep it light, because heavy flirting will scare her off.

Oh, i thought maybe you were younger than that. I was going to say, get one of your friends to tell one of her friends that you like her :wink:.

Aww well, hey, you could try it anyway :biggrin:
Ooh, "we met on a bus". I like it :biggrin:
