ok. I went to a new school last year & my dad made me dress really nerdy. So I kinda have a nerdy reputation there. I'm different this year, but nobody will give me a chance. (xept my friends) I like this guy who's a football player/ skater. I'm absolutely in love w/ him. He talks to me a little bit b/c i hang out w/ his ex/friend. I'm totally not his type, but i love him. Do I have a chance? & if i do, how can i change my rep & get him to like me better??

With those people, it depends on what you look like. I have no idea what both of you look like, so I don't know. If you're not dressing nerdy now, all the people who are worthwhile will forget about that eventually. Have you considered dating one of your guy friends? That is, if you have any guy friends. I know I didn't have any friends who were girls when I was in hs. But if you have guy friends, they'd be much more likely to go out with you. If I HAD to guess, I'd say you don't have a chance with the guy. Good luck!

Look honey theres no such thing as -"TYPE" or "REP" in opp sex relationship. Trust me. Its ur attitude & confidence that u have that attracts people not the dress.
If u tell him I'm a looser, but would u date me ...what do u think ll be the reply?
But if u look him in the eyes when talking to him and flirt with him he is sure to respond.
Reputations do not make u.....Your confidence makes u.....
Its only people with confidence have reputations. Or else people who dress as u would put non-nerdy would have all the guys they want.
Go for him.

I do not think clothes are the person. It will take someone actually taking the time to know you to determine if there is a match.
Your reputation is something that grows from a series of events. People associate you with your clothes, friends, activities, behaviors and style. Think of the various "cliques" that happen as people get put in groups "geeks", jocks" nerds" - all stereotypes.
You just need to choose your own path.
If you are not his type, how do you know what his type is?
Just because a person hangs out with jocks does not mean they will marry cheerleaders.
You cannot "get someone to like you" - but you can give him a chance to get to know you better. If he is open to people and not a biased person....he may give it a chance to succeed. You cannot succeed though being what the other person wants you to be...and not yourself. You cannot lose YOU to please him.

Just tell him how you feel. If he turns you down its okay there are lots more guys out there that will like you.

you shouldn't have to change anything about yourself to get the guy to like you
