If you want to propose to someone, it helps to become friends first. If you already know him, try engaging in a conversation. Building a connection comes first. Here are some simple tips on how to move forward and express your feelings.
Instructions
Start by getting to know him. If you share mutual friends, ask for an introduction. If not, take the initiative. Try sparking a casual interaction—drop a pen or notebook near him. If he helps you, he may be open to talking.
- To be liked, you must show genuine kindness and interest in others.
- Be curious about what excites them and ask thoughtful questions.
- Engage sincerely in conversation to learn more about him.
Check if he's active on social media platforms. Sometimes it's easier to start a conversation online than in person.
Discover what he’s into—it’s easier to connect if you share common interests. Find out his favorite basketball team, whether he enjoys reading, and other hobbies. If he’s on social media, that’s a great place to learn more about him.
It’s a big advantage if he goes to your school.
Greet him with a smile and a ‘hi’ whenever you see him in the hallway.
Stay confident and put effort into your appearance.
If he’s in your class, try to sit nearby. You could ask for help with an assignment—if he says yes, it's a strong sign he’s interested.
Invite him and his friends to your party. Or plan a movie outing. Take every chance to talk to him—but make sure not to come across as too clingy.
Chat with his friends to build rapport, but don’t stick around them too much.
Once your friendship feels meaningful, that’s the right time to express your feelings.
Ask to speak with him privately. Choose a quiet spot away from others. If you’re connected on social media, message him suggesting a time and place to meet for something important.
Avoid saying it too bluntly—it can feel uncomfortable. Try starting with ‘I want to share something with you,’ then let him know you like him.
-
Be open and sincere when talking to him—let your true self show.
-
Don't rush every interaction; let him take the lead in starting conversations sometimes.
-
If he needs space to think things over, respect that. Avoid lingering around him—it could make him uneasy.
Warnings
- If you sense he’s not interested, it’s best not to go through with it.
- If he avoids you, won’t meet your eyes, or steers clear of you—it’s a clear sign he’s not into you. Respect that and move on.
