OMG! Help! what should I do???

Theres this boy in school.. I dont know him.
But I love him anyway.. I dont know what to say if I would talk to him.. I have to talk to him beacause some other girl might take the chance.. He's not popular, my friend thinks he's kinda nerdy.. We are looking at each other almost every day, and it has been going on for like a year now! And it really hurts me, and he dosent even know! I dont know how I should show him that I like him more than smile and look.. He's one year older than me (do you think that is a problem?) Like all boys think my friend i HOT and stuff, but he dosent look at her.. at me though =) But the boys in his class look at me and my friend a lot, and I think they want like "contact".. I just want to know what I should do?

This letter mabye was kinda of confused, but I wrote in in like panic.. hehe

Please someone help!?

yeah I know what thats like. I love a guy i dont know and have for three and a half years but he is socialy better than me and he has had a gf for a year or so so all I can say is if you think you stand a chance with the boy you like go for it now. Just talk to him about anything and if he likes you he will turn it into a conversation. Good luck X

umm...i think i got most of that. In my opinion you should talk to him. If you really think you could start a relationship with him. All i can say is stop just looking. Talk to him. If you let him know how you feel you might just get a chance before any other girl. Good luck.
