My crush is moving!

  • Should you stay with your BF over summer?
There’s this guy that I REALLY like, but he is going to move away in May!! Also, two of my friends overheard that he likes one of my best friends, but she doesn’t like him at all. Should I ask him out before it’s too late or just move on?


Imagine if you do ask him out, and he says yes. Will you be able to deal with his moving away? If yes, then go for asking him out. What your friends overheard may not be the total truth, so you have nothing to lose by asking him out. You won’t be forever embarrassed if he rejects you because he’s moving away!


But it might be harder to move on from him if you actually do date and he leaves. While you can get over a crush by just finding someone new to like, getting over a boyfriend is more difficult. And long-distance relationships are possible, but a phone call or Skype chat isn’t the same as seeing someone in person. Plus, you might consider that he might not want to start a relationship before he moves.


Go ahead and ask him out if you think it could work, but be realistic. It might be better to just move on now, just make sure you know what you want before you jump into anything.

MODMODMOD I think I am starting to like my BGF! I'm too scared too tell my friends or him. We have pretended to be going out to pull a prank on our friends before but told them right after. He was about to ask me out a couple weeks ago but the day before I just got a boyfriend Frown I am still together with my boyfriend but we hardly talk and we live in different time zones and far apart. He really likes me and I don't want to break his heart. Also since I am starting to like my BGF and if I do manage to break up with my current BF, I don't want to ruin my friendship with my BGF. Help??




Hey girlie,

First off, you definitely need to break up with your BF if you want to flirt with/date your BGF. It's not fair or moral to pursue another guy while you have a BF, even if he lives far away. So do the right thing! (Plus, you don't really talk anyway - that's not a relationship!) Then, you have to weigh the pros and cons of making a move on your BGF. Read this article - I think approaching it this way might really help Smile

MOD MOD!!! My mom wouldn't let me get a facebook and all my friends except one friend have one!!! how can i convince her!!!!!!!! thank you!!!




Hey girl,

Instead of whining and giving the old "But everyone ELSE has one!" argument, try to approach it from a more mature angle. Go on Facebook with a friend's account and read their privacy information. Print it out or write down some notes to show mom that you have total control over your account: you can make it 100% private to anyone who isn't listed as a friend. And promise her you will only add friends that you KNOW from real life and trust - and promise that you will never post inappropriate things/photos, because that's just not how you roll. Show her you're thoughtful, mature, and classy about this. She might not agree right away, but keep trying Smile

HELP!! So, I was texting my crush last night and I asked him what do you think of me? He replied I'm not gonna say so I asked him why? with a sad face and he replied Because ;)
What does that mean? I am soo confused! My friends said maybe he likes me! Do you think he does?




Hey Girl,

I think he likes you too! He probably wouldn't say why because he was too nervous, so keep texting him for more clues so can be sure. Or, if you're feeling brave, tell him that you like him. Believe it or not, boys are just as scared of rejection as girls are, so telling him how you feel could take away his nerves and get him to ask you out! Good luck!

I just moved recently, but right after we moved out this really cute guy, Eric, moved into the area. My dad still lives at my old house, so whenever I go to visit my dad I always see Eric. He is really funny and seems interested in me. I am friends with him on facebook and I see him once a month. I also plan on moving back to where I used to live for my junior year(I'm in eighth grade now). Do you think we could still go out? P.S. We only live two hours apartTong (sorry if its confusing!!!)




I think thats always possible. Try to get to know him and see where it goes! xoxo kerra

I'm in a really messed up state right now. I'm in high school and EVERYTHING is changing. People are changing. So many of them are going on the wrong path. This guy has been liking me too long, so I have no idea why, but I just started dating him. I have no feelings for him, but i'm still dating him. he was one of the guys who started smoking, and i told him to stop. he said he would stop, but only for me. I was considering breaking up with him cuz it really wasn't doing me any good. And i have been having dreams of my best guy friend, who left earlier this year. We were really close, and once he told me he liked me. I didnt handle the situation well, and that day i thought about it and I actually fell for him. But he never mentioned it again so i kept quiet. now, after those dreams, i realised that i still love him. and i'm dating a guy i have no feeling for. my crush is not coming back. What do I do?

Hey Chica,

You should break up with the BF you have now. It's never good to be in a relationship when you don't have feelings for someone, and you're just leading him on by pretending. But don't try to start things with your best guy friend just yet. As you said, he moved away, so it's probably better to move on. We often dream about people we are missing, but have you thought that maybe you just miss having a guy friend in your life? Love is a big step, and if you haven't seen your crush in a while, you can't know for sure if you're in love with him.

You should take some time to be single before moving onto another guy. Do things you love and work on being the best you you can be– and don't date guys just because they're available! Try contacting your BGF again, but as a friend. Having him back in your life not as your BF might make you happier than you think.
