I Danced With My Crush I Am Shy And It Was Awkward

I danced with my crush, I am shy, and it was awkward?

hi so I am 13 years old and I went to my school dance last night, the girl I like was there also I am VERY shy and its hard for me to talk to her. my friends were trying to set me up to dance with her so at school they asked is she would dance with me (I didn't know about this until later) and she said yes so when the slow dance song came around my friends pushed me toward her (I didn't want to go, I was really nervous) but yeah I just stood there when we were near her and one of my friends said "******* has something to say to you" and then I spoke up and asked her to dance it was even more awkward because like 20 of my friends came cheering in the middle of the slow dance. also the girl I like was looking around back and forth not at me (i was kind of doing the same) I made some small talk and she answered shortly she just really looked like she didn't want to be slow dancing with me, also when my friends were pushing me toward her way she started walking away please help, whats going on? thanks
Update : would a girl like it if I said this on Monday to her, "Sorry about the dance... it was kind of awkward. Haha." ?

I have to dance with my crush?

Ugh.
At the end of the school year (In a 3 weeks) the entire 9th grade is performing dances. Each class has a different song (picked by each class) and a different dance.
My class is doing some 90's song and it has some 90's inspired moves, like the running man and this weird dance where you hold hands and do some weird moves.
Anyways, I got paired up with my crush.
I already hated this dance enough, and NOW I HAVE TO HOLD HANDS WITH HIM.
JUST FREAKING GREAT.
Don't even tell me to talk to him more or anything.
We're both extremely shy and it was awful.
He kept staring at me, I wouldn't look at him, my friends were all staring at me, his friends were staring at him.
Our friends were all shouting things and making weird kissey noises, and I just want to die.
Sadly, I had to endure the pain.
Worst year ever.
9th grade sucks, but thankfully the 10th graders don't do dances.

Slow dance with my crush?!?

OK, so I am gonna slow dance with my crush at the semi formal Friday, and I need some help on how to make it perfect. First off, I already know what I'm gonna wear so I'll tell you what I'm wearing: A PINK halter dress from Aero, Pink and blue flats from AE, and a cute feather necklace. Will he like it, or no? Also, how can me and my crush when were slow dancing not be so awkward because I'm really shy around boys and I cause a lot of awkwardness. No rude comments plz? Thx

Asking my crush to a dance?

This is like a year late but whatever, maybe it'll help someone searching through yahoo answers. I was pretty much in the same situation; I liked a guy in the grade below me and we talked once, and that's it. I didn't crush on him when we talked that once but I started really liking him after that.. but yea I wanted to ask him because this was my opportunity, and I was so nervous it was ridiculous. I knew the doubt and wonder would KILL me so I just did it, and he said yes! Fantastic! We talked way more after the dance which made me happy~ but seriously now I know to "take the risk or lose the chance" because even though we were both pretty shy and awkward, I am SO happy I did it, and no matter what the result, you'll be happy you just took the chance instead of wondering what could have been. Best of wishes to anyone! Same advice goes to guys and prom ;)

I can't talk to my crush; we're both too shy!?

So there is this guy I met when school started. We have a couple classes together, so I would easily see him often. I introduced myself, thinking he was a totally cool person. He was really quiet.
A month later, after being his friend on facebook and such, I realized he's amazing and I immediately started liking him.
My friend gave me his number one day, and I started talking to him. He was chill but still interesting to talk to. I found out we have a lot in common and my need for him grew.
We developed a mild friendship, but it was hard because I am so shy around him. I would text him on the weekends occasionally, a couple times we even pulled all-nighters via text.

Ok so now my friend, who is also somewhat friends with him, recently found out he likes me too. This is a big deal since when he likes someone, he's *sure* he likes them, hes not easy, trust me.

We obviously have the same feelings, because we're both speechless when were with each other. He's easier to text, but in person, I cant conjure up a conversation and it appears he cant either. I've had conversations with him before, but they die out really fast, or I just end up freezing mid-conversation. He makes me so nervous, but that doesn't mean I don't like him :)

Also, hes going to Sadie Hawkins Dance with me in a couple weeks. I am scared to death about the awkward silences yet to happen. Luckily, our best friends are friends and they could go to Sadie's, but my friend doesn't wanna go. And none of my other friends are going, so Im pretty much alone on this one.

SO my question is:
How can I prevent awkward silences from happening--at the dance and just whenever we're with each other?
How can I get myself to stop being so shy? Same with him, is there any way I can get him to loosen up?
Also, any tips for Sadie's?

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I really hope you can help me out!
