How do I get my boyfriend to be more interested in me?

How do I get my boyfriend's friends to give us some privacy?

• My boyfriend and I have been dating for about a month now, and he's really shy since I'm his first girlfriend(he's my first boyfriend as well). I'm trying my hardest to get him to warm up to the idea of simple PDA -- hand-holding, kissing... he's already gotten used to hugging, and gets up to do it on his own now when he sees me. 'Point is, I'm working really hard to "give him that extra push". It also doesn't help that he's a junior and I'm a freshman, so we have NO classes together -- the only time we have to hang out is during lunch, and occasionally after school. I've done the best with the time I have, but my boyfriend's friends aren't making it any easier for me. I mean, for now we mainly eat in this one classroom with a bunch of other people(so there aren't too many awkward silences for him), so I can't deprive him of his friends then -- I'm NOT clingy, and I won't do that to him. But there IS a small three-minute opportunity when lunch is about to end and we're all dispersing that we can talk and I can afford to give him a peck on the cheek. He has two best friends that are with us on any occasion-- a girl(a senior) and a guy(junior, like him). The guy doesn't really give us much trouble -- he simply doesn't have the attention span to want to talk to us while we're talking or obviously having a moment. However, he can occasionally just duck into a conversation because(bless his soul) the kid has NO awareness of social graces. If he has something he wants to talk about, he's willing to talk over you to get his point across. My boyfriend and his two friends have a love for Yu-Gi-Oh, and I don't have a problem with that, really, but that's ALL his guy friend ever talks about, so not only does he not understand when he's being rude, but since his motivation is something he loves, he's even more willing to pave over your convo to talk about his new Dark Magician card or something. I genuinely love the boy, and he's like a little brother(even though he's older) but he just doesn't' get it... Next is his female friend -- she's a really sweet girl, and we talk outside of lunch when we meet in the halls, but she just does NOT get that we want to be alone, and reads signals either all wrong or too late. Take today for instance: it was our little "window" at the end of lunch, and I was about to go in for a hug and a kiss, but she stood there and talked to us THE WHOLE TIME. I was kind of inching closer to him, trying to give her a little sign to just LEAVE, but it took her to finally stop talking for two seconds. She kind of froze up and looked between the two of us and realization dawned on her face, and she immediately left. She's a bit more sensible, but she's really oblivious to our relationship, and gives us the most problems out of the two of them. If we're sitting really close together after school and I want to make a move, she'll sit in front of us and talk for THE. LONGEST. TIME. She KNOWS we're going out, but when I actually have the TIME to get couple-y with him, she's always there messing it up. I want to just talk with her about it and adress the problem -- she's four years older than me and SHOULD be able to understand. But this is a group of socially awkward teens -- it doesn't work that way. The last time I decided to share something personal with her,(the fact that I was about to invite my boyfriend on a double-date my friend was having) she freaking TOLD him(thank the Lord that it was AFTER I'd asked him that she did). So I don't want her running to my bf and twisting the story, telling him something like "Your girlfriend bullied me" or "Your girlfriend is too clingy -- she doesn't want us to hang out anymore". The thing is, I WANT my bf to enjoy his friends. BUT, I AM is girlfriend, and that means he needs to set SOME time aside for me. Thanks, and your help is appreciated :)

  When you and he are together why not simply say "Hey guys, can we have a moment alone? Thanks"
