Getting friends on Facebook?... Advice?

[Emma]

Ok so I'm 13, new to Facebook. I only have like 2 friends, but they have like 300, and they are all from our middle school. It's not like if I send a friend request to someone I know, I'm afraid they will "reject". Its just I'm afraid to send a request, to people who are even just aquantiences. I want them to realize I have a Facebook and send a request to me, so I can just accept it. Because there is this guy who I kInd of like, he's cute lol. And he thinks I'm pretty (friends tell me). He has a Facebook, and I really want to like be in touch with him. But I barely know him, he just goes to my school, not in any of my classes though. I know that if I request, he will accept, but I just can't request, it's so annoying. How do I make him realize that I have a Facebook, and make him want to request??
BTW: none of my friends know I like him, and they never wil...
Also, please a diff answer than "just send a request".... Lol

Thank you soo soo much(:
