what should I do!

Hey everyone,

I need some advice. There's a guy on my floor (I live in a college dorm) that I'm very attracted to... we've talked a little bit at floor meetings but never really exchanged contact information or anything like that. I really would like to get to know him better, but I only ever see him at floor meetings and those only happen once a month (most recent just tonight, so not another until April! SO LONG!). What can I do to express my interest in him and break that barrier? I could send him a message on this website called Facebook, college students use it a lot, I could "friend him", but I'm not sure how he'd take that. I could slip him a note under his door, but that's kind of elementary. I'm really not sure what to do. I see him sometimes outside the dorm but never alone, never in a situation where I would feel comfortable talking to him. What should I DO! I don't want this to slip by!

If he's on the Facebook website that your talking about, that's a way you could do it. Or if you have his e-mail address or if he's on myspace.com you could try through that. I would just send something to him saying that you've seen him around, introduce yourself, ask him if there's a GF in his life, and if not just say that you would like to be friends and maybe get to known him better. If he doesn't respond back, then you'll have your answer. That way you can at least try, and if he's taken at least you'll known ahead of time. Slipping a note under his door is kinda kiddy. But goes through that website, it might be a lot easier for you, and could save you some time or possible embarssment.

Good Luck!

kristimesh...

Assuming you know where the local card shop is located....Pianoguy suggests that you pick out a nice (NOT MUSHY) friendship card for this gentleman? Write a short note indicating that it would be nice if you could see him more than once a month? Then ask him if he'd consider sharing a cup of coffee with you before the week is over?

Seal the envelope, slip the card under his door...and see if he responds to it?

Besides the floor meetings, do you ever see him in the common areas, the hallways, the campus gym?
