I like this guy, but the problem is he's my brother's friend and i mean we say hi in the hallway but i am like really nervous to start a convo with him because i'm worried that he will think i'm stupid or something.

I don't know how to talk to him and i'm scared that he might tell my brother then i will get in trobule so should i just move on?

The universal way to stirke up a cronversation with *anyone* is humor. Don't go telling jokes or anything, but if you can get in a situation were you can make him ro people near him laugh, then you have his respect, if not admiration. Try it!

youre just afraid of rejection. however, he might tell his brother and it might feel funny, but the truth of the matter is, what have you got to lose? so what if you get rejected, but if you don't, you'll be that much more ahead.


and starting up a converstation? it will depend on the situation, but simply by saying hi occasional, he won't think any differently of you. he already knows your brother so that actually might help the situation. start by talking to your brother about it and see what he has to say.

Ask your brother if he's attached, thats more impt than anything else


=)


if he's avaliable, ask him out on a date. guys are usually accomodative

People starting conversations is a pretty damn natural thing and you will not get into trouble for talking.

[tulaka]

why you think he'll consider you stupid if you say hi to him? In this case, he'll be the one who's really stupid.

If you really like him, just give it a shot, it's not a big deal you know. It is your private life, not your brother’s.

[Maximus]

if he's your brother friend, it will only make it more simple. Dare! Otherwise you will achieve nothing.

[tulaka]

I don't get the point. What's wrong if he tells your brother? What will happen to you then?

[Cold_as_ice]

I understand you. There are families where brothers are like fathers. So he must really care about his sister.

[Planetman]

Well those people exaggerate their mission then.

[Maximus]

Brothers shouldn't interfere their sisters' life. But if they do, let them answer the question: "Would they like their sisters to interfere their lives?"

[Elis]

Well they will always say that we, girls need protection

[Cold_as_ice]

today, actually there are quite independent girls and I would say quite strong girls that need no protection from men, I mean they can even defend a man from somebody else.
That's true, on my own experience.

[Planetman]

So you're a fighter, CAI?

[Cold_as_ice]

I'm not. But it happened once that I had to save a guy who was beat by other men. He thanked me later.

[Elis]

Then, you're brave for sure

[tulaka]

A girl must not involve other parties (such as her relatives, friends) within a relationship with a boy. It can make the boy mad and never he will call her back again.

[Cold_as_ice]

Adults are smarter in this matter. I'm talking about parents. They understand the whole thing and will always boost their child to act properly. So, if you tell her mother about your relations, there is 50/50 chance - either you screw up everything or you've made the correct decision.
