Possibly my most embarrassing moment yet. So I’m in high school and I went to a big important football game with my friend. I saw this girl who’s in the grade below me and she’s really cute. So she starts looking at me and smiling (which is surprising considering that I’m not that good looking). My friend gets all hype and tells me to go talk to her. So I walk near her friend group and for the WHOLE GAME I just stood near her and never spoke a word to her until the end. I tapped her shoulder and tried to speak, but as usual my stutter keeps me from saying anything. So the girl and her friends just stare at me and I felt so bad I just walked away. I could tell that girl really liked me and I feel so angry that I screwed it up. This happened only like 20 minute ago. Do I still have a chance? If so, what do I even say to her?(I have her instagram so I can dm her).
