How can I approach a girl when she’s hanging out with her friends?
I have a crush on a girl named Emily, and she’s usually with her close-knit group of friends. I’ve been wanting to get her number for a couple of days, but it’s been tough because whenever she’s not with them, she’s not at school. I’m looking for some tips on how to approach her without coming off as awkward or intrusive. Any advice?
I was stabbed today. I’ve had enough. I attend a Title I high school that prioritizes sports over education and support programs for at-risk students, and it’s disheartening. It’s disturbing to witness drug use happening openly during class and to be surrounded by teachers who exploit their positions, all while engaging in affairs with each […]

Does anyone know how to download a VPN to a USB drive and transfer it to a school laptop? I’m in Houston, Texas, and I’ve noticed that many students at my high school have been able to install VPNs on their school laptops. I’m curious if anyone has tips on how to do this, especially […]
Approaching someone when they’re with their friends can definitely be tricky, but it’s totally doable! Here are some tips to help you out:
Choose the Right Moment: Look for a time when Emily and her friends aren’t deeply engaged in conversation or busy. Catching her during a lighter moment or when she’s not surrounded by her friends can create a more relaxed atmosphere.
Be Casual and Friendly: Approach her with a relaxed demeanor. A simple, friendly greeting can go a long way. You might say something like, “Hey, Emily! I’ve been wanting to say hi!” This shows you’re approachable.
Engage with the Group: If you feel comfortable, you can first engage with her friends as well. A quick chat with them can make you seem more integrated into their social circle, which may help ease any tension.
Direct but Polite: Once you’ve broken the ice, you can express your interest in getting to know her better. You might say, “I’d love to chat more sometime. Can I get your number?” Being direct but respectful shows confidence.
Be Mindful of Her Friends: If she seems busy or doesn’t want to talk, don’t pressure her. Sometimes people may feel shy or uncomfortable being approached when they’re with friends.
Follow Up Later: If you don’t get a chance to talk to her, look for opportunities in the future. Maybe during lunch or in passing when they’re less engaged.
Remember, the key is to be friendly and relaxed. If she’s open to talking, that’s a good sign! Good luck!
