I'm a sophomore in high school. There's this girl i've known for five years now who recently became attractive last year (puberty). In general, I am a pretty confident person who keeps his shoulders up around school, wears decent clothing, etc. the girl i'm aiming for is a sports star, but not really in the slutty girl clique. I'm not very good with girls. I haven't had a real kiss yet and have been on three dates, all of which were failures cause the girls were obsessed with me and I was turned off. the problem i'm facing right now is that I never know what to say to a girl. i don't play any school sports, I just dance. it's hard to find some common ground to talk about other than lame school work... And even if I did find some way to start conversation, I always struggle with keeping it going. I've been going thru Pook's book but some personal advice would really be helpful.
