My new BF is fun and nice. But he says he’ll call, then never does. I’m too embarrassed to ask why.


I don’t want to seem desperate. How should I handle this?


DAVE: No need for embarrassment as you’re clearly right to be annoyed. Time to bring out the trusty, “Turn things around—how would you feel?” argument. Present the situation to him, and simply ask, “If I told you I was going to call and didn’t, how would you feel?” If that doesn’t put things into perspective and change his behavior, break up. Then he’ll be the one seeming desperate.


BILL: It’s a question of nerve. Either he doesn’t have enough nerve to call, or he has so much nerve that he lies to your face. Lower the bar by getting his IM name, and drop a quick note when you see him online. If he doesn’t answer right back, you’ll have a pretty good idea which nerve you’ve struck in him.


TELL US NOW! Boys got ya baffled? Ask Bill and Dave what's up. Just click the purple SEND A QUESTION button.

MOD,
In my school it's really weird. No girls are even FRIENDS with guys let alone dating them. If any boy every does ask someone out all that happens is everyone swamps them and asks them questions and they never even go on a date!
Well, somehow when everyone gets into high school every group of girls has a group of guy friends. The only problem is that I am afraid that my group of friends won't have a group of guy friends cause........I don't even know!!!!!!!!!
What should I do to become friends with guys in a school no one has guy friends until High school (and i have no idea how they even become friends!)??????




Hey babe,

You make friends with guys the same way you make friends with girls. Just talk about things you have in common and get to know each other. Just get to know some guys and you'll find some that you connect with.

one time, one of my friends wouldn't talk to me because I talked to one of our other friends who she was fighting with but I didn't even know, (and neither did our other friend). It was bizarre!

I like this guy but yesterday he started going out with my friend. She is not mean she didn't know but i'm so sad this happens to me all the time. Yesterday he said that i smile alot and of course i was embarassed because i have braces but than he says non i like your smile and said girls with braces are pretty. I don't no if i should go for him or not . I don't want to tell my friend she seems really happy and i wouldn't want to ruin that . And i wouldn't cheat with him all though he is really not guy . Please help he is the first ever guy that complemented my apearence .

*MOD* My crush is shy, i mean REALLY shy. I've seen him talk to other girls and his friends, and he talks way more than he does to me. When I say hi, it's like he can't say anything. I'm really tired of always trying to start a conversation, what should i do to make him talk more? also, since he's shy around me does that mean he might like me?

 

Hey chick! It def could mean he is a little nervous about him! You're just going to have to talk to him more to make him more comfortable! Ask him lots of questions about himself; maybe he will warm up a little!

So i have this school BFF,lets say her name is sarah, and she has this major crush on this guy. we are all in the same lunch class. But this guy doesnt like me at all( at least thats what i think) and so at lunch when we are laughing and i look over and he is looking at me with this weird face he does. i look away quickly. also at lunch he said hey sarah why are you friends with Adair( my nickname) just to be mean. finally, when we are in the halls he will walk up to me or me to him and he will say something mean like traitor or stalker. what should i do. i dont want to hurt my bff, but this guy is being very mean
sorry this was so long

Gracie401 on 8/26/2009 6:55:52 AM

Mod and girls:
I need help. My ex-bf and I are close. We talk every night and laugh and tell each other stuff. Well, I was like in love with him but then my bff said, "Do u like her?" and he said, "I kinda like somebody else but I don't want to hurt her feelings." My bff wasn't supposed to tell me that but she did. Well, it crushed me. I felt like bawling so I decided I better get over him but just doesn't work! I think about him constantly. I think I love him!!! What should I do? Flirt with him? HELP!




Hey babe, getting over a guy is not an easy thing to do! Just focus on hanging out with your friends and having fun and in time you'll start to feel better!

mod mod mod!!! i had a friend that did the exact same thing. it was super annoying. so i "transformed" into "spy mode" and i secretly listened to what she said to one of her other friends...and she said that she didnt call me because i wore a pair of shoes (she has the same ones) and she was sick of me "copying" her. i didnt even know she had those shoes, let alone would i copy her intentionally EVER!!!
BeachyKeen

 

Hey girl!  That is a horrible reason for her to avoid talking to you!  You can confront her about this and let her know that you didn't mean to copy her...ever!  But, if she's getting so catty over a pair of shoes, it might be time to find some new friends.  You don't have to be mean to her, but try to expand your horizons and make some new buddies.  best, Kristen

Ok so the guy i talked to u about earler about us liking each other but him being to shy. well im still kinda scared to ask him out cuz wat if he still says no. i dont think he would but idk. also this is kinda mean. but well most ppl dont think he is good looking and they dont like him so much. i like him tho. im kinda afraid pppl would judge us and say things about us goin out. plz help!

 

Hey girl!  He may say no, but it's better to find out for yourself.  You don't want to regret not asking and wonder what would/could have happened.  And don't let others get in teh way of your happiness!  People will ALWAYS judge, but if you're happy, they have nothing on you!  Best, Kristen

MOD MOD MOD MOD MDO MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MODMOD ok so theres this guy i like and he lives by me. so anyway were kinda friends. but im rlly good friends with one of his friends and he says that the guy i like likes me back a lot but wont go out with me cuz hes to shy. but the guy nos i like him hes never had a gf. before. idk wat to do. wats the point of liking him when he wont go outwith me it dosent make sence wat should i do?????????

 

Hey girl!  If the guy likes you but is shy, he may jsut need soem reassurance.  Since you two are both interested, go ahead and ask him out yourself!  Showing him that you're into him too will help him feel more at ease and more likely to ask you out.  Don't be afraid to take the initiative!  good luck!

swimmerxox on 8/24/2009 1:44:12 PM

MOD My crush likes me back, he told me so. Anyways, at the end of the school year, I left him a note that said if we're in the same class this year, I wouldn't mind being his friend. He totally went crazy over the note. Now I don't know what to do. What if we aren't in the same class this year? What if he doesn't like me? All different things. I asked my BFF who used to date him way back a long time ago and dumped him whenever she got made fun of, and she just said "Don't." I really expected better advice, and I just need help because he's the first boy I've ever felt this way with. HELP!!!

 

Hi girl!

 

Try hanging out with him a few times before you guys actually start dating. That way you will get a preview of what it would be like to actually date him.

MOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am currently going out with an amazing guy but he lives in a different town and we don;t see each other often. Also, My parents don't exactly know about him so I always bring my friend which is fine but now because she has spent some time with him im afraid she if starting to like him! I don't know what to do but she has done the same thing to other people but she has a boyfriend so i feel bad for him but i also want to have my guy to myself!

Hey girl. Well if this girl has a bf then you should be fine. If you start to see her getting a little close, remind her that you had your eyes on him first! Mel

superhannah on 8/23/2009 9:49:21 PM

MOD hey!or girls! do u have a sec? thanks! well i have this crush on a guy who is so cute, funny, nice, everything. he always talks to me but its always small talk, and its usually about school work and stuff. my friend said he was staring at me during lunch, but idk if he was. point is, i like him and want to date, or have his screenname or cell number. should i ask a friend to see if he likes me? or ask for his number? or wait it out? what? thanks!

Hey girl. I say try to get to know him! It won't hurt, and you can see where things lead. So see if you can get his number or screename! Mel

superhannah on 8/23/2009 9:11:13 PM

help me!
So there is this guy who I really like and cant stop thinkin about, but sadly he moved. even more sadly that I never realized that I liked him until this summer. and my "friend" liked him too the last time i saw her, but she doesnt go to my school, so i dont now if shes over him. i mean i can get his email, cause i also need to ask him a question about this other guy who was in all of my classes last year and they all said that he liked me but i dont now if its true. hes the only one that i trust(im not the person that wrote the different school drama just to let you know) i dont just like him, i think im in love with him what should i do????????




Hey girl, I'm sorry to hear that your crush moved away. That can rip a girl apart, but unfortunately there's not much you can do about it. You can def keep in touch with him through email, the phone, or even old fashioned snail mail, but it might be a lil' unrealistic to keep crushin' on him long distance - not to mention exhausting! You should move on to more local boys, but that doesn't mean you can't keep him as a close friend. Who knows? Maybe you can visit each other sometime.
