I've been crushing on a boy for 5 years and we hardly know each other. I've caught him staring at me over the years, but I was always to afraid to say anything because I'm really shy and I get extra nervous. Everytime I've ever made eye contact it's like this heavenly magical feeling that tingles on the inside of me and I know deep down in my soul that he feels the same when we make eye contact. How can I break out of my shell and talk to him without making it awkward? And is it too late after 5 years?

Honestly, I shouldn't be given you advice because I have to liked the same boy for 4 yrs. I haven't spoken to mine crush either. He tried to make a joke with me once but didn't finished the joke. Just visualize yourself asking him how is he doing. Don't think about so much. The more confidence you have in yourself, the more you can him how he is doing. Also, stop taking the backseat and starting taking the drivers seat.

Well, you can continue to stare at him, move on, or do something about it.

You've got to take a step forward. You let him know the reasons why. He's probably just as nervous as you!

I'm not really the best at giving advice, but this is what I always tell myself: "Carpe Diem." You only live once, so you should make the most of your life.

Eventually, you're probably going to regret not having the guts to talk to this guy for so long. I mean, five years is such a long time, and it seems like he's interested. And besides, in the end, what do you have to lose if you talk to him? There's no harm in a simple "Hello." :)

Seize the day. There are so many ways that you can do to make your day better or worse, but you're the one in control of it all.

And if you end up embarrassing yourself, well, that just makes life more interesting. Life wouldn't be the same without an embarrassing moment here and there. At least you talked to him! <3

Good luck~

Whoops, please excuse my bad grammar: There are so many ways that you can make your day better or worse.*

I'm quite scatterbrained today. XD

Just do it. Don't think about it. Take it slow and relax. You could try talking to him in a group setting sometimes that makes it easier. It's never to late to try. It's a lot better to know than always wonder.

It's just that idk how to talk to him because we don't have any classes together and we don't really see each other that much at school
