How to talk to your crush

There's nothing that gets your heart pounding quite like talking to your crush. Even thinking about them or seeing them can sometimes make it difficult to think. You don't have to miss out on a dream relationship because you're too shy to talk to them however, so here are a few tips to help make it happen.

Introduce yourself

If you're not sure how to strike up a conversation with your crush, try dropping a pen or other small item near them. Chances are that they will pick it up for you, and you have a nice opening to introduce yourself in. Try to avoid doing this with lots of friends there or other large groups, as this may make them feel uncomfortable.

Talk indirectly on social media

If you have a friend or coworker who is friends with the person you have a crush on, try replying to the same things that they do. That doesn't mean talking to them as if they were talking to you in the feed,but simply commenting on the same things. By doing so, you can introduce yourself a little bit more subtly, and perhaps get that person interested enough to look at your social media.

If your crush ends up choosing to talk with you directly, in a positive way, consider sending them a friend request.

Don't overdo it

Once you finally get the courage to speak to your crush, it can be tempting to keep yourself in their line of sight at all times. This can be downright creepy however, so keep it normal and just talk to them now and then when the opportunity arises.

If there's chemistry between you two, you will connect, so relax and just keep giving your crush opportunities to show they are interested back.
