Dear Ms. Lipstiq,
I really like this guy, but I don’t know if he even knows who I am. We exchange a ‘Hi’ or a smile each and every time we pass by each other. But i don’t know if he’ll actually be interested in me the way I am in him. My friends are telling me to wait it out and see how it goes, but at the same time, some friends are telling me to just go for the first move. Though, it’s stereotypical to wait on a guy ask a girl out, but would it be weird or wrong if I did something like that? If i make the first move, what should I say? How should I approach him? I fear being rejected…. What do I do?

Dear Melodie,
The question of whether a girl should make the first move or not has been one that has been asked over and over. Some would say yes, and some would disagree completely. But, it all really depends on you – are you willing to take that leap? If you are, you have to prepare for the best and the worst at the same time. You say you exchange smiles and ‘Hi’s’ but the way a guys mind works is a complete 360 from what us girls. If you decide to make the first move, know that there is a possible rejection, and once you’re okay with that, then go for it. As for what to say, just approach him and ask him how he’s doing, and if that feels right, then you can move on to a simple ‘Wan’t to grab coffee some time’ and just see how that goes. Yes, we know, it’s easier said than done… But it’s always good to put yourself out there. Either way, do what feels right to you and make it count! Good luck!
Ms. Lipstiq.
