How Do I Get His Attention?

Hey Mike and Rich.

There’s this guy, lets call him Sam. Okay, so Sam is a huge YouTube Celeb, and he’s really cute and I have him on YearBook. He’s sweet and funny, but with all the other girls after him its hard to get his attention. I’m even competing against my best friend because they’re friends too. How can I get his attention focused on me? He makes music and so do I, but I don’t know if thats enough. We’re actually alot alike but I feel all tense when I talk to him. I try and make sure I say the right thing but what should I do? I’ve never had this problem with guys before, if i wanted him I got him – but this is different.

Please help a sister out !

Love your friend,

Jade

Hi Jade!

Well this question is fairly straightforward and requires more thinking on your behalf than mine!

This guy sounds pretty nice, but there are a few things I think you should consider before moving any further…

First thing you need to consider is are you his type? Despite how much we may like someone, we simply might not be our ideal partner’s type, which means nothing much can really come of the relationship. Try and look at ex girlfriends or other girls he likes and see if you match up in terms of looks and personality, if you do – you’re definitely in for a chance.

You also need to think about what would happen if you did manage to win him over and you got together. Could you handle his celebrity status with girls wanting to chat to him all the time, or would you become jealous? If you’re likely to get jealous perhaps it is better to remain friends?

It terms of getting his attention, you need to be natural and be you – it sounds like you could be trying too hard. There was a guy that I really liked once, I idolised him in fact. The problem was I was so desperate for him to notice me I completely changed who I was and he lost interest in me… As soon as I started being myself he came running!
What I’m trying to say is be yourself and if he doesn’t like you for who you are then it’s not meant to be sweetie.

Good luck – let us know how it all goes!

Kisses,
