I go to school with this guy who i have become completely infatuated with. I guess you could say he's my "crush." Cute, right? *sigh* I've only talked to him a few times and he's always been really nice but i am absolutely terrified and intimidated by him. How do i get up the courage to just talk to him and maybe..somehow become his friend. Ugh...he's so handsome...

You can find courage in a bottle...of rum! Or a margrita or whatnot. Get liquored up!
Or... look in the mirror and talk to yourself to build yourself up before going up to him.

I don't know if you really need to work up the courage to talk to him anymore, since you've done it a few times already and he seems to have responded well. That's always a good sign that he likes you or at least is willing to talk to you.
So you've made the first step already and didn't even know it. Now, imagine what it would be like if you don't say anything else to him and you see him with another girl (which would have been YOU if you hadn't given up). It'll be too late then to do anything about it.
Also, he may feel the same way about you: 'Well, she's so cute and she's talked to me a couple of times already, but that's all.'. You never know.
I'm in a similar bind because the girl I like I was working with when I was still in the military, but she's an officer and I wasn't and the regulations are pretty clear about any kind of fraternization. I, too, was awestruck with her beauty (and brains), but I think was also a little intimidated as well, and after I got out of the military started writing to her but have heard nothing back yet. Did I wait too long to act? Possibly, I just don't know at this point. I would say, based on my experience, keep talking to him: he's either really your Mr. Right or he's not what you expected him to be, but there's only one way to know for sure.

Just relax and be yourself.... your problem is your putting him up on a pedistal like he is better than you and sweetie he's not. He's just a person like you maybe a very good looking person but still just the same. Just look at it like he should be lucky your talking to him. don't act snoody or anything just boost your ego up some and you'll be surprised how comfortable you'll be.

Is there something you have in common at school? A club? A sport? A class? Join a club that he is in and then you will have something to start talking to him about. You go girl!

It works the same way around too.
Fail or not you might as well try it. It's not whom you are competing against but whom he is looking for to match his view of what a girl is.

just walk up to him and start a casual conservation even if it about an assisgnment to get started. Then from then just continue to talk and things will slowly increase

build your self confidence- you probably afraid that he'll reject you- keep your conversations causal and ask him out ot something you 'll both enjoy and that you know something about so that on the date you'll have natural conversations starters. don't be obvious about how wonderful you think he is- remember how wonderful you are and that he's luckyou someone as great as you is interested in him
