practice talking to him in the mirror. you will feel like an idiot but it is worth it.
talk to him when it is not just you and him and there are other people around. you will get used to talking to him, and you won't have to be leading the conversation.

I was very shy in high school and had a real outgoing popular sister who gave me this advice. Between classes make a point of saying hello to one person whom you'd like to be friends with. Say, "Hi Sally!" or whoever. Every time you see that person do it again until you're saying hello to several NEW people every day. That will give you practice to get up the nerve to talk to this guy. You obviously aren't ready now.
Another thing you could do is when he's around pretend to yourself that you don't like him more than a friend and talk to him like he was your brother. It won't happen right away but in time you won't be so shy.
Hope I helped. Good luck!

i'm kinda shy too & the best way to overcome it is to try to be comfortable around people you know like your friends. think of it this way, if you break out of your shell in front of your friends, nothing bad can really happen, it will just show you're enjoying yourself. try to be the same way with the guy. talk to him a little.. maybe even start conversations online instead of in person first. so then little by little you'll become comfortable around him & be able to overcome your shyness.

If you really wanna date this guy, then you gotta get over that feeling of shyness!!! Or if not, then just pretend your not shy, he wont know the difference i swear! You don't have to be super talkative, just be friendly and open when he approaches you.

that happens to me too. i just try to be myself. sometimes if i talk to a really good looking guy, i freeze up. So, i just try to think of something really dorky about the guy or make it up if u don't know anything dorky about the guy. lol ....it sounds weird but it relaxes me and makes it easier to talk to guys.

Since you you know that he likes you, then what exactly are you afraid of? Not rejection, obviously.
Embarrassment? So what if you do or say something silly? He likes you, so he will just overlook it. Relax and enjoy yourself!

i have the same problem and people tell me to loosen up and speak what you feel. It'll be hard at first( it still is for me) but people tell me that I will get over it eventually

think of all the kissing u want to do with him. then look him in the eyes and say, "did you just fart?" it will ease the tension and u will be more comfortable to fart in public around him. problem solved
