GUYS | DEAR CAROL

Stuck on a crush


 
I always like a guy for a long time, no matter what. I just got over someone, and now I like a new guy. I’m afraid to show my interest because I’ll keep liking him even if he doesn’t like me back. He’s popular; I’m not. Should I go for it or try to move on?
 

Dear Afraid to Love Again,

Here’s what you should not do: stalk him in the hall, IM him 24/7, put his cell number on your speed dial, or tell friends to get the word out that you’re ready when he is. But feel free to smile in his direction, say “hi,” ask a friendly question, and maybe even compliment him on his winning goal or class presentation. Take tiny steps to gauge the warmth of his reaction. As for declaring that, once you like someone, you’re stuck liking him for life? Surprise yourself by changing your ways. This boy is only one of thousands in your community. If he’s nice and attentive, he may hold your interest. If not, you have the power to get out of a one-way crush.

MODMODMOD So tomorrow I have a school competition with my crush and I'm super pumped! However, it's a long bus ride to get to where we're going and I don't want it to be dull or boring. Any fun bus ride ideas or suggestions? Thanks!Smile

Hey girl,

Why not sit next to your crush or to someone you'd like to be better friends with? Bus trips make awkward conversations less awkward, and it will give you the chance to talk to people you've been wanting to talk to more. You could also bring some travel games or cards to play with your friends, or play something that works on the run like Never Have I Ever. Good luck at the competition and have fun!

So my crush asked me out twice. I said no both times because he is a known player and he is my BFG and I didn't know if I wanted to ruin that friendship. I regret saying no and I want him to ask me out again. He flirts with me all the time, we talk about everything, we know a lot about eachother and I'm pretty sure he likes me. I don't want to ask him out but should I just give up and move on or wait and see if he asks me again? Oh and do you think 6th grade is to young to date???

Hey girl,

No matter what his reputation, you should give him a chance if you think you might be into him. Reputations are often false! If you want to go out with him, it's okay for girls to ask out guys! You already know he likes you, so why not go for it? You could keep waiting, but he might not ask for a while since you've already said no. There's no right or wrong age to start dating, so do whatever you feel is right! Good luck!

Hi, Ive liked this guy that is a year younger than me since last year. We would always hang out on a daily basis at school during 4th period. He was my BGF my "adopted brother" then i started to crush on him. and i fell hard. when i heard from his best friend that he liked me to i didnt know if it was true or not so i continued to treate him like my BGF with a few subtle hints that i liked him. aparently they were to subtle. he acted like he wanted are freindship to be something more at times but then would catch himself and walk away. anyway, this year i see him all the time in the hallways at lockers in classes, PE and hes always watching. Ive tried to talk to him a bute always looks away and ignors me. I dont know what to think. also whenever im around he makes a point to talk to a lot of girls. what does this mean??

There's this guy that I have like since the beginning of last school year. He's one of those shy but popular kids that get in trouble a lot. I told him I liked him when I first started liking him, but he didn't like me back. Now I think he likes me, because he is always nice and kind of flirts with me. So do you think I should imply that I like him? Also, how can I flirt with him? Thanks!

 

hey! Since you told him once, I think the ball's in his court now. Just keep talking with him, make eye contact, and smile a lot Smile

Okay so i told the guy i like that i like him(i still can't believe i did that, i'm usually a very shy person) and then 2 days ago i almost passed out at a school as and my teacher had my crush(not by anyone's suggestion)help her get me to the nurse cause she was afraid i was going to fall. when he was holding my arm, his other hand and mine kept touching. I looked at him questioningly to see if this bothered him and he smiled. I was pretty sure it was probably just pity, but then today and yesterday he kept staring at me. Also whenever I ask him if he thinks i should get contacts, he says i look fine the way i am.
Could he like me??? Helen S.
