Seems like I run out of things to talk about with her

I walked out of the nurse's office today right after the bell to switch classes and I immediately saw the girl I like and then she saw me a second after and didn't stop looking at me the entire time straight in the eyes and then I said Hello and then she smiled and waved and I just kept going to go up the stairs. It wasn't that big of a deal while it was happening but then I thought about it and it made me want her again.

Then several hours later I saw her in the hallway outside of one of my classes as she was walking to her class and she didn't see me but my heart-rate jumped really fast when I saw her.



I'm not sure what to do though, I could say hi to her and start talking to her again in the office but we eventually run out of stuff to talk about and then she looks off in a different direction, and then I just say bye to her and leave when that happens. What am I supposed to do about that? And does what happened in the hallway mean anything?

My friend's coworker, who happens to be a PUA (Pick-Up Artist), actually gave me some oddly good advice. I didn't ask for it lol, but he made a good point...

END the conversation before the awkward silence has a chance to happen. After you two have talked a little bit, just look at your watch and say "Crap! I gotta get going! See you later!" and go off wherever. The guy who told me this says that it'll make her start thinking about you after your conversation ends...

Yeah, that's what I've read, I don't think it'll work on her though

But what do I know

It's worth a shot. Plus it's better than ending with an awkward silence.

I suppose but I won't know when to do it, and before you know it, the awkwardness happens. And who wants to end things like that anyway unless it's necessary?

Cyanide is right, but doing that takes an exquisite sense of timing. You already know you don't have an exquisite sense of timing. So how about this: have a conversation piece with you that you can show her or talk about. A beautiful or comical picture on your cellphone (nothing vulgar). A playlist on your ipod to see if your music tastes intersect (don't say you made the playlist special for her- trust me, don't). A drawing you've been working on.

the PUAs say that if conversation dries up you should do their psychic/psychology games and tests that "tell them about themselves". Women like them and are entertained by them for ages and they stimulate loads of laughter and conversation. PUA sites have loads of these games and tests, Google "the rings routine".

For me, if it reaches awkward silence or looks like it's headed that way, that's when I start cracking jokes...
