Well, its kind of an interesting whole story. he is one of my brothers friends but i have really liked him for a long time. i little while ago i said somethign about maybe hanging out osmeitme and then we would make plans and stuff but they never really happened. then we talked and he said that he just thoguht it would be wierd because im his friends sister you know. so then i just didnt say anythign else about it and i hadnt seen him for a while not to talk anyways, so then he started like goign out of his way to tlak to me and stuff and then the other day eh was just like hey we shoudl hang out soemtime. so i dont know what made him change his mind.

What difference does it make? He’s clearly interested. Sieze the opportunity!

Show cleavage. Verily, verily I swear unto you **nothing** is more effective. Forget charm, personality, sharing interests, bla bla bla. Nothing gets 'em better then bOObs. K, but seriously, talking to him, getting in good and all that increase your chances. Which is not to say looking good (i.e. boobage) is not important.

…But of course, you’ve already reeled him in so it doesn’t matter anymore. Probably wore a low cut top. 😉

Stand very close to him and ‘accidentally’ rub your boobs on his arm.

Stare at him until he notices. Then continue to stare at him until he asks you what you’re doing. You can answer “nothing” or anything else you want. Continue to stare at him even after that.

/hi jack

Ahh the stare, I hate the stare. I get the stare sometimes when I am driving (girls walking) I stare back. (btw my friends notice also: " hey looks like you have a fan" "hey she was looking at you"etc.) yet when I try to introduce myself or say “hello” I get the cold shoulder.My friend said “must be the car” ,hmm must be I suppose…

**Tony Montana** I, like you, have a problem with women staring in my direction. My problem is that they do it whether I’m tooling around town in my mint condition '73 Corvette or on my bike in tight shorts with my shirt off. I just can’t figure whether it’s the bike or the car.

**Tigers2b1** in _my_ case I dont think it (the look/stare) _means anything_ other than maybe “cool car,take me for a ride?” I’d _like_ it to be “cool car,take me now!”…

How do you get guys to notice a girl?

Guys notice EVERY girl. And they’re all thinking “I wish I was with that girl.”

So it isn’t difficult. For girls, that is. (For guys it’s a 24 hr nightmare)

Really? Me too! What day?

Alas, I have no advice to offer about how to get guys to notice you. Except every bf I’ve had I was friends with before (and sometimes after, too).
