Alright here is whats going on:
There is a very beautiful girl in my anatomy class and lab. I’d say she is borderline 10 (based on looks alone). In lecture I sit with some friends, she sits across the room (of about 250 students). Anyway, I catch her looking at me every so often, at least once or twice a class period. I’ve made eye contact once or twice, but she looks away quickly. I take these things as a possible IOI.
So in lab each week, she sits next to me or near me, even though she has plenty of seats to choose from if she wanted to. Taking it as a good opportunity, I have tried to open her and start a conversation on a few occasions. I’ll ask her a question or make a comment. All I get back are short responses that don’t have anything I can continue a conversation with. So than I’m thinking to myself that either she isn’t into me, or that she is really shy.
What makes me think she is shy is that I’ve noticed she acts the same way when talking to other people, even people she knows in the class. Also how she responds to my attempts to start a convo is the same way I did back when I war really shy. Short closed-end responses in a quiet tone of voice. Otherwise she is just silent.
Anyways, I ordered a bottle of Instant Openness, and it should be getting here any day. How effective is it in getting people who are shy to open up to my attempts to start a convo?
