Talking To Shy Guys!!

How do you ever start a conversation with them? I know a guy who is totally shy but he likes me. He is very nice, but everytime he comes to talk to me he has nothing to say. Only if I start a conversation he will respond...Please help. I am running out of things to say. What are some things I could talk about? Or better yet how can I change this habit of his?

Show you're comfortable around him, don't act to confident yourself and just simply take it slowly.

A shy guy needs to discover his own self, you wont do that by trying to hard to show yourself.

Wow. Thanks for the good advice. I am still up for more opinions.

...Oh guys. It is hardly working...

i used to be so shy... dunno how i've changed to be so talkative.. the best way to talk to shy people is try to make them feel comfortable with the topic that u're talking about. just ask question that makes him/her anwer in sentences rather than yes/no for an answer. for example, do ask, "what is your favorite color and why did you pick that color?" (blue, cuz it's pretty!) do not ask, "do you have a favorie color?" chances are he/she will reply with a "yes" or "no" answer.

It gets me so frustrated...I hate when you try to make a convo and they answer with only yes or no

yep

come up to him and grab his ass ,then ask him,wsup honney and then just leave ,ul leave him all excited and hel be thinking about you all day and night i bet ,then next day come up to him and say this was just a joke and you are sorry ask his name and tell him that he got something nice ,eyes blah blha blha and then its goes in a week u go out already

hmmmmm maybe he is gay ?

I'm shy and if a guy were to talk to me, i'd be very talkative if they were; talkative themselves (they can jabber about anything, from what they did yesterday, to thier pets) full of questions (rhetorical questions, one's about life etc.) complementative ( I need complements or i'll feel like shit and wonder if they're talking to me to make me look bad or beacause they really like me) teasing(I don't know why, but when someone teases me a lot, I really open up to them) Try doing this every day for a few weeks or even a month, eventually he won't be as shy and he'lll start having more to say. I always have A lOT to say, but rarely ever say it, because i'm afraid of how others would react. I try so hard to tell myself that i'll never see these people again in a few years and that it really doesn't matter, but it doesn't work...Sometimes I just want to live a little, you know? Sing a song in the middle of the hall or something, maybe that's how he feels. Aware of what he should be doing, but feeling that he is unable to do it. Help him gain cofidence, because that is what shy people lack.
