One day, I was strolling, just hanging out with my friends when I spot this guy engrossed in a book. He was new there but the book was a book I had really enjoyed. So obviously I approach this boy hoping to befriend him and connect over the book. Being the socially inept person I am, I planned out ahead of time what I’d say: “Hey, we’ve [my friends and I] wanted to come over to say hi because I noticed you were reading a book I liked and I hope we can converse in the future.” But no. Once we got to him I got nervous and just had to blurt out “We’ve come to say hi to you.” and I think my voice cracked and I nearly cried. I’ll avoid them from now on.
