So I knew this guy that knew this guy...?

Be yourself, thats the most important thing, don't change who you are just to be liked,so yeah be you! And just make him laugh and ask about his interests and stuff if you don't already know them. Hope this helps,sorry if it doesn't XD.

Ask him if he likes you if he says yes smile an flirt.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
