So here's my story. I was born in NY and I lived there for a while. In my elementary school, I was good friends with this girl, especially in Kindergarten. We didn't really talk to each other in 1st grade, and after that I ended up moving to Florida. I lived there for 7 years and just moved back, a few months ago, to the same town in NY that I lived in. So now, I started high school a while ago, and that girl happens to be in one of my classes, but she has no idea I exist. She seems like a really cool person now and I'm starting to like her, but I'm scared to death to talk to her again. It just seems really awkward... yeah. So if anyone has any advice I'd appreciate it.

So, just start small chat with her in the classroom. If you really want to befriend her, try and spark something interesting right at the end of class, and she if she would be interested to walk with you, or something.
Don't just run up to her and be like "HAY I KNEW YOU 7 YEARS AGO!!!" as I'm sure that would be considered slightly creepy. |

Yeah, just talk to her.
Tell her later that you went to kindergarten with her, but I wouldn't use it as a starting point for conversation. Maybe something to tell her later if you hit it off, she might find it amusing. |

Originally posted by Shadic For some reason I feel that pretending not to have met her before, pretending that you just met her, and then springing that on her later would still be creepy. I can't think of a better way to do it, though. It shouldn't really matter, though. It's been what, eight years? Just re-introduce yourself. |

Originally posted by witeasprinwowOriginally posted by Shadic Anyway you do it, you get the creepy label slapped onto you, unless you completely don't say anything about your kindergarten crush on her, and act as if you are just meeting... and then if she sometime remembers you... act bewildered and then have it slowly come back to you. Just a thought. |

Even creepier than the rest of this thread is its title.
Yeesh. |

Originally posted by Black Lord + I think that's the best idea I've seen so far. But now I'm not sure if it matters now.... I told a few friends about it and they're probably gonna re-introduce me to her on monday. So I guess we'll see what happens.... Originally posted by Arwon Agreed. |

Maybe its because I've never been good with the ladies, or really other people in general, but I just can't see the point in pretending you didn't know her before. | |||

I think it'd be weird if you don't tell her right away. Or act like you don't remember. Because if she doesn't remember, you'll be wanting to say it, probably. And if she does, and you act like it's slowly coming back to you.. that'd be pretty hard to pull off convincingly, unless you actually were only just remembering it (which you aren't).
You don't have to mention that you had a crush on her or anything. Just go up and say who you are, and that you think you remember her from kindergarden. See if she remembers you, and if she doesn't, just say that she looked familiar, and that you just wanted to say hi. Or something like that. You're less likely to come off as creepy if you're honest. You can omit stuff, but making stuff up.. eh. Not generally a good idea. :< |

Is what Aiya just said really not obvious to some people? | |||

There's nothing wrong with admitting that you've known her before.
You just have to go up to her and get her attention, then tell her who you are (last name included would be a good idea in this case), and if she looks confused for a sec, then say where you remember her from. And if she still doesn't remember you, then oh well, didn't hurt to try (and you can just say something like "no, you don't remember me?"). If she does, then just ask her what she's been up to lately, and then she should start telling you a bit of what's going on with her, which usually starts a conversation (but you can't always just let her do all the work of starting a conversation, or it's like she'll be talking to herself). Then maybe talk with her about some of the things she mentioned, and you need to say some things about yourself too, that should reintroduce your both. Now, when you talk to her, you can't have any gay/shy or creepy looks, and you need to sound alive (that also means around that moment, don't focus on the fact that you are interested in her in a sexual way, until you both start talking about stuff, or you might talk a little funny or give off a weird look). This might not work for everyone, because every person is different, but for the majority of people it should work just fine. Then after that, you both need to spend a good amount of time with one another. Well, if things don't work out for you 2, then it just wasn't meant to happen (in that case, you had your time being friends, and it's time to move on and stop focusing on it and date other girls). |

AHHHH, thanks to a fieldtrip, she wasn't even here all week. But I've decided that I'm definitely gonna be honest and just tell her that I knew her. If she remembers, great... but I think I'll decide what to do from there if she does. Cause the last thing I want is for her or anyone else to think I'm creepy. And if she doesn't.... I guess whatever. I'll still try to be friendly with her. If we get into one of those kinda conversations like Atma said, that'll be ok. I'm good at sounding and looking alive in conversations. Oh and uhh... I'm not interested in her in a sexual way. Not yet, at least.... | |||

bump into her, maybe she'll recognize you. It's worth a shot.
EDIT: Sorry, I didn't read any of the other posts. Sorry. (edited by Faro0 on 12-27-06 06:33 PM) |

Well, thread hasn't done much in two months prior to your bump.
