Can't Help But Mess Up Around Your Crush?

No feeling makes you act more stupid then love. Maybe you don't love him, but any kind of special feeling toward another person is a kind of love. It can make you do the stupidest things. Like: running into another person in the hall because you can't take your eyes off them, Dumping food all over yourself in the cafeteria cause he looked at you, when ever you guys talk your words are slurred, you repeat yourself and the main topic of your conversation was elephants cause you couldn't say anything other than that because you were so nervous.
I have a few tips to make you a little less nervous around him.
Make a Game Plan
Have you and your best friend make a plan to what you are going to say, how your going to say it, body language, and facial expressions. This way when you have to talk to the cutie and the main subject won't be elephants.
Assign a Deadline 
There is no better way to make you less nervous is to just get the first conversation over with. Make a deal with one of your friends that you will talk to him by this date. If you are really ballsy make a bet if you don't you have to give up something.
Treat Him Like Your Bestie 
Treat him like a friend, not your knight in shining armor. Make jokes with him just stay cool, calm, and collected. Just like you are with your friends. The best and most successful couples act like each others best friends. You don't have to worry about messing up around your best friend and you can say the stupidest stuff in front of your best friend. You can do the same thing in front of your crush, because he is a normal person.
Press the Send Button 
It is a known fact that people have more confidence while not facing the person. Log into your Facebook and message him just a simple message like: Hey do you understand the chemistry assignment? This however can only work for so long you just need this Facebook connection to help you figure out he is a normal person and give you the confidence to talk to him in person. So talk to him that night then then the next day thank him for the help on the homework.
