like walking down the hallways, if i walk ahead a little its like hes following me. when he comes to my locker, we have nothing to talk about so i pick up something random. when we are on the phone its really weird with lots of awkward silences. i think i still like him and i know its not working out but i dont know what to do to make it less awkward. it was fine when we were just friends but we didnt talk.. as much? but we really its just. wow.

i AM trying to be more outgoing. like seriously, i can tell when he is getting shy in the conversation. so i try to act like im not shy and i laugh and stuff. he is the kind of guy (hes a year younger) who like acts really funny and stupid. but like. when its just us idk what to do its just nothing. and i havent kissed him yet its only been a week. im gonna kiss him on the cheek, but not yet. i just dont feel like it yet.
but i know he wants to cuse his ex girlfriend was annoying to go out with, and pretended to be sad and stuff for his attention but like. he even said like :she never even kissed me"

so far these answers are great.
i do want to spend more alone time with him. but i know if we see a movie it will just be like making out the whole time soo.
and believe me, i do say things totally random to spark up the convo. that works for about 10 mins cuse im not afraid to act like a random kid. but lately he hasnt been talking to me as much.

OKAY SOOO.
thanks for the advice. i'm thinking now.
i will grab him hand in the hallway next time i see him if him like, walks by.
and i hug him and all.
maybe next week we could go to a skate park (i dont skate, he does) cuse its near my house and he could get off my bus. yeah.
but that doesnt seem like a lot, seeing as i prob wont end up doing the skate park thing.

Well maybe you could find something you could do together, like miniature golf, bowling, movies, concert, museum, church, etc., and then you would have something to talk about.
You could share with him that you don't want to monopolize the conversation, and you really want to know what he thinks.
Maybe go with a group of friends to do things and then you can visit with them and it breaks up the demand to talk so intently one on one.
Just enjoy, life is short and there is no rush to prove anything, you sound like a really thoughtful, caring girlfriend.

hmmmm...... maybe hang out more, like even going to a park.... the beauty of a relationship comes from making memories.... plus you will have something to talk about. you could also grab his hand some day in the hall and see how he reacts, and that would prevent one of you walking farther ahead. Go to a movie, and then talk about how you liked it or just talk about something you are both interested in. If you kiss him, don't kiss him on the cheek... that will send the wrong message. Kiss him on the lips, and it doesn't have to be long or with tongue or anything. I did that with my boyfriend.... a kiss on the cheek sends a message that you are friends only.

Perhaps you should go back to being friends if it was better than. Silence can also be something great. Don't forget that. Sometimes it's just being with someone that's makes things nice. Look at older couples. They are happy and content to just sit in silence. Silence is golden.

Go do something together to get your mind of the akwardness. Then get in a fight and argue a little. Then it will be gone. But dont just go start an argument. Then you will know each other alot better.

maybe you guys rushed into it too fast
or maybe you know each other so well there's just not much to talk about
if you enjoy being around him anyway, it shouldn't matter
the awkward moments go away after a month or two
do something spontaneous, something that will keep you two busy and have less silent moments
possibly make something together?

It sounds like you are forcing a relationship with each other. Why not just enjoy being young and able to date around? If you really like each other then there shouldn't be any pressure to act a certain was and say certain things.

Ask him what's new, how's he doing.
Read things like a newspaper or watch the news and talk to him about what's going on in the world.
It makes you a more interesting person also.

ive had the same thing happen to me, you should just talk about everything and anything. When i first went out with someone i was always thinkin i had to talk about something meaningful and worthwhile but then when we didn't have anything to talk about, i just started talking about everything no matter how stupid it was, and things got a lot better

It might be because you two seemingly never have anything to talk about. Try talking about stuff you two used to when you were friends. Find some common ground that you two can discuss.
