13 Embarrassing Things Awkward People Do Around Their Crushes

Being awkward is rough. Social skills and eye contact don't come naturally to everyone, OK? What's even worse is being one of those awkward girls around your crush. All normal conversations and behavior can be thrown right out the window in romantic-related situations (even if the romance is one-sided — that one side being you). The struggle is real, and we have 13 socially inept reasons to prove it. Source: Fox

01

When you spy your crush, you totally lose your cool.

You can't contain your glee around all of that hotness.

02

So you try to capture his attention.

But you do it in the most obvious and nonsuave way.

03

Instead you give some seductive flirting a shot.

It looks like you're having face spasms.

04

You think you're totally hot while making a move on the dance floor.

If you're confident, you'll look irresistible no matter what, right? Source: A24

05

But you actually look like this . . .

Maybe not so sexy?

06

But then you finally capture his attention.

And you pretty much crumble to your knees with excitement.

07

You try to start a conversation.

You bring up lame reasons as to why you're in his presence instead.

08

Or maybe you pay him a compliment?

That didn't go as well as expected . . .

09

Changing the subject can be really hard.

The first thing that comes to mind are your innermost thoughts and desires.

10

So you give up on conversation all together.

Awkward silences, they're inevitable.

11

So it's time to move on to physical contact.

Hugs are too much to handle . . . how about a high five?

12

Sometimes it's just easier to mouth sweet nothings behind his back.

The whole touching thing was just too much to handle.

13

Despite all that awkwardness, he finally asks you on a date.

Celebrate your victory!
