really starting to like this guy...

however he is a bit of a social outcast.

i go to this youth music centre type thing and i see this guy once a week. he is amazingly talented but he doesnt really seem to have any social skills. when he doesnt have a lesson, im pretty sure hes just practising. he doesnt really talk to anyone and i have no idea who is friends are, i dont even know if he has any friends. i really want to go up to him and just start talking to him but i think i might scare him. it is both our last year there and i really want to get to know him before the end of the year but im having trouble of finding ways of starting conversation.
does anyone have any suggestions? i know he really doesnt sound like boyfriend material or anything but he just seems like such an interesting person i want to get to know him better.

That is a great starter =]

Also, if he is talented, find out how he is and start a conversation about that... See who inspires him to do what he does etc, then just ask him general questions like his hobbies etc and where he's from, where he likes to hang out, and even who his mates are.

ask if if he knows where someone or something is, then go to the place or person he suggested or pretend to-come back within a few mins (not long) tell him you found it and thanks. then ask what hes doing or what that is?? something liek that, of which he knows the answer to and be intrested in him. He'll talk back because he knows the answers. And then maybe ask for a contact method a few weeks later. You'l be fine!im always intrigued by people like that, but dont suually fancy them..at that point. Just act like you got something to do or somewhere to be so he doesnt get pannicky at first and doesnt feel to much attention is on him. Good luck!
