Hi there, I'm 19 and would need some advice. I like a guy from my school, we were in the same class last year, but now we have only one class in common. Last year, we did talk from time to time (it was just the both of us, we weren't with other people), even though our exchanges were limited because of covid). Now when we see each other, we do talk a little bit, but I'm literally at a loss of words everytime I'm around him. I managed to ask him if we could work together for a group project (he accepted immediately and told me : "of course, not problem at all"). The other day, our class was finished, and I think he waited for me to grab my stuff and get out of the classroom so we could talk. Then, we were walking side by side but we barely talked until we were outside (but he still stayed next to me, even though he could have left to talk to his friend). One thing that questions me is that his friend is always with him, but when I'm with the guy I like, he always walks behind us or grab his phone and rarely participates in the conversation.
So yeah- I think at least he doesn't mind my presence, since he sometimes goes talk to me himself (like there was this one time we were both taking an exam and I was in the waiting room, whereas he was just finished, and he walked to me and talked to me even though there was another girl he knew in the room).
What would you advise me to do ? I want to get to know him better but never know what to talk about because I'm way too nervous. I also don't have his phone number yet, but hope I will have it when we'll start working for our group project.
