I’m a girl in Grade 12 student from canada in my second semester, and my classes are co-op at an oil change shop, Outdoor Ed, and auto shop. In all of them, I’m the only girl, which has makes it harder for me to make friends and talk with my classmates. Ive always struggle with that, but being in all-male classes has made it even more challenging. I do try and make small talk here and there recently.
There are these four guys in my autoshop classes who are in a really close friend group, that wear boots and hats, and I’ve been crushing on them A LOT! To me theyre really cool and laid-back. I know they go fishing, hunting and whatever semi country boys do after school and weekends. And they don’t really care about rules, and one of them even skips school for his job or fishing. They all have cars they drive to school and just do whatever whenever they want.
Compared to them, I’m more of a rule follower, so I feel kind of lame but at the same time it also makes me want to get out of my comfort zone and be more like them (like a do I want to be with them or be them situation :P). Plus i have more of a “liberal” look with baby bangs and short hair, i feel they fit me, but its probably not theyre preppy long blone hair blue eyed type :,<
Because of how cooool they are I feel really intimidated by them, even though it’s probably just my thoughts. But in class I keep my head down and my voice low in class, so i feel like i come off as a loser. I also feel like a poser since im not at their level when it comes to cars knowledge and other “manly” stuff.
With prom coming up (im going with my friends) I really want to ask one of them, but ive basicaly never talked to them other than asking one if hes having fun and another what he wrote on his welded piece, but at the same time i get fomo/anxious thinking about never seeing them again after this semester, cuz in my eyes theyre one of a kind down to their looks, clothes and names.
I checked my past classes and realized I’d had multiple classes with them before, but I don’t remember any of them which im disappointed in me.
I’ve never been this “boy crazy” before. Theyre basically all I think and talk about, but they feel super out of my league.
This is long sorry but, I wanna know what youd think if there was just 1 girl in ur shop class? I need to know ppls thoughts on me or i make up bad thoughts to myself… or lmk how youve asked ur crush to prom with a similar situation?
