Good idea? give a girl my number as i walk off the bus.?
I'm really shy. there's this girl i see on the bus every thursday. We go to different colleges. I've never spoken to her though. We've made eye contact a couple times but that's it. I'm VERY shy, and would panic just trying to talk to her. I was thinking I'd walk past her going off the bus (i get off b4 her) and hand her a piece of paper with my name and number... good idea?

Aww! that's the cutest thing I've heard! it's a very good idea.
But you should smile at her while you give her the piece of paper and make sure she sees you smile.
Good luck :)

P.S. Don't believe that "shark Guy whatever" he's a GUY. I'm a girl. I know what I'm talking about :)

It might be an okay opening, but at some point you must force yourself to forge on past the shyness and talk with her to get to know her. If you don't you will miss possibly the most enjoyable relationship of your life. Everyone has a lot of anxiety about getting to know other people, especially those of the opposite sex. Dating is never easy, but it is certainly worth the effort. I would suggest that instead of handing her a note as you leave, just a few moments before your stop, approach her and tell her something about her that strikes you, such as, "you have beautiful eyes," or whatever it is that most attracts you to her. Be honest. If she has any interest, she will respond positively. Then tell her your stop is coming up and if she would like, the next time you ride the bus together, perhaps you could sit and get to know each other better.
Good luck. Be bold. You won't regret it.

Sure, if you're really shy, this isn't a bad idea. She'll probably be flattered. Better yet, why don't you include a brief note, as brief as you want, along with your name and number. Believe it or not, this will ease the pressure somewhat on her end since you've never talked before. It should make her more comfortable and make you seem more interesting. Just invite her to give you a call if she's ever interested. And try to give her a nice, sincere smile one of these days. That can work wonders. Don't let this opportunity pass you by! I met my boyfriend by finally offering him my number (although we had spoken a few times before - that helps!), and he is the love of my life. So, you never know what can happen; you just have to be brave. Good luck!!

It depends on the girl in question, but I think there are better ways. Try to just introduce yourself. Go up to her and say "Hi, I've seen you on the bus ever week and I wanted to introduce myself". You're not really risking much by doing that but you have the benefit of seeing what kind of response you get from her. From that you can decide whether to move forward.

If you just give her your phone number, there's no real feedback from her. And then if she doesn't call or anything you wind up feeling kind of embarrassed when you see her. Also, by just handing her your number you don't let her know anything about you except that you are too scared to actually talk to her.

If you're really petrified by the prospect of actually talking to her, maybe write a little note. Something like "Hi, my name is so and so. I see you on the bus every week and I would really like to talk to you but I'm really shy and I feel very uncomfortable approaching a stranger on the bus". Maybe don't include your phone number, that way you leave it up to her to make the next move. If she's interested in talking to you, she will let you know.

Yes, that's one way of opening up a friendship, but you do have to get over the shyness. How would you expect to hold conversations with her? What will you if she calls you? Just be confident in your feelings. Let the words flow. Write her a note and admit that you are shy, but that you have interest in being her friend. Tell her about the "eye contact" and you would like to try to be friends. On the phone, talk about your different colleges, classes you take, favorite hobbies, and take it slow--one topic at a time. Don't talk too long the first time. Build up some confidence & the words will come pouring out.

It's AN idea, not really the best one though: your main problem is that she has never spoken to you, and is highly unlikely to call. But if you're dead-set shy and not going to change, don't just put your name and phone number, put something like, "Hi, you don't know me but i've noticed your beautiful smile [gorgeous eyes, whatever she's got] on the bus, and it's the highlight of my day. I'd love to get to know you better, if you'd like to too give me a call on...." Or even suggest that she sit with you on the bus one day. Just don't make it too cheesy, and don't make it to 'I'm watching you' stalker-like. Good luck!

That's not a bad idea at all. Put your name and number down AND add a little note..tell her you are very shy, but you would very much like to meet/talk to her. It is a good idea, nothing wrong with that.
Go for it! And hey, if she doesn't call you, do not take it personally, she might have a boyfriend, or she might be gay...but you'll never know until you try!

No. Dude, don't think that just because you shared a "couple" of eye-contacts, she'd be all excited to have your number.

Think about it...

'What if she has a boyfriend... or worse... that your eyecontacts don't mean a thing to her or even more worse...she doesn't even care who you are...'

Chat her up a bit. Yes, even if you are shy. If you can't even muster the courage to talk to a girl, don't think she'd care to look your way.

whatever you do don't be shy,
just THINK before you say or do something,
act like you know what you're doing.
maybe you should get to know her first, like start talking,
smile! girls (me) love to see a guys smile.

then say " i like you, lets talk more"
first give her your number on a piece of paper.
then ask her for her number, (put her number in your cell phone). act lively and be a little silly.
laugh alot, be happy.
make sure that your mouth smells good.

Yea man that is a great idea bro ... that takes balls and will for sure break the ice with her. When the next Thursday comes up and she acts different though, then you know its time to take another bus.
