Okay, during lunch there is this guy at school who sits alone. i want to invite him to sit with me and my friends , but I am shy around the opposite sex, and I am afraid of his reaction. Should I just ask him or not?

People at my school were assholes. You couldn't trust them. Plus I'm a dweeb and was always the target. |

Same here! Once I remember that some boys had done something to the chair that meant it would break as soon as I sat on it (luckily I picked up on this beforehand). I hate a lot of that stupid "My friend wants to go out with you" bullshit too. Nothing fucked up my self esteem more than school. |

Okay, So I asked to sit with him, and he sort of nodded his head, and didn't really look at me.
My friends came over a few minutes later, he ignores us.
Ah well, I went way out of my comfort zone in doing this! (I am really shy)
Thanks for the encouragement!

Well, I thought he didn't seem interested, but he is probably shy. I just didn't want to scare him off.

I tend to look for other shy people who seem to be loners because I will feel less intimidated approaching them. |

Well, I thought he didn't seem interested, but he is probably shy. I just didn't want to scare him off. Earlier in this thread I said that no one does this to me. In school I was approached by a girl as I was sitting at the side of the field during a sports lesson. She was an outgoing girl who had a lot of friends, and she asked me if I was ok and if I wanted to go and sit withe her and her friends. I think I appeared uninterested to her but in truth I was terrified. Thinking back it was a sweet thing to do. She was a really thoughtfull girl. In college a girl approached me and we were friends then. Our friendship was ruined 5 years ago really because our friendship was in danger of becoming more, as she was already engaged to someone and she just stopped seeing me. I still get messages from her on networking site from time to time. |

phantom...good for you, I'm proud. Him not seeming that interested is no reflection on you. You did great. Hopefully he can come out of his shell

I hate dudes like this.
But I don't blame him, I sympathize for him. Hopefully something extremely happy happens to him, I only wish him happiness; having dealt with many of these types in high school, i only wish them happiness, I've seen some then go out and seek that out at school to replicate that happiness that comes from outside of school, a small moment of oppurtunity where I wish people like you where around then... cause then some of the close up after that hahaha, oh well, you try.
