One day, I was taking a walk, just chilling with my friends when I spot this guy engrossed in a book. He was new in the area but the book was a book I had really enjoyed. So obviously I go up to this boy hoping to strike up a friendship and connect over the book. Being the socially awkward fail I am, I thought through what I’d say: “Hey, we’ve [my friends and I] wanted to come over to say hi cause I observed you were reading a book I liked and I hope we can talk more in the future.” But no. Once we got to him I freaked out and just blurted out “We’ve come to greet you.” and I think my voice cracked and I almost started to cry. Never gonna talk to them again.
