I never know what to talk about when talking to my crush on the phone! I've tried to talk about things we have in common, but it always ends in an awkward silence. Any ideas?

 

Hey babe, sometimes it is tough to talk to guys on the phone. There are very few who know how to keep up a good convo, which puts a lot of strain on us girls. So, one thing you can try is to only call your crush when you know there’ll be something for you two to chat about. Did he just get back from a trip to the beach with his fam? Ask him how it went. Or maybe you’ve been saving up and finally got yourself a sweet longboard. So describe it to him, and see if he wants to come over and check it out sometime.

 

The trick is not to call your cutie all the time. If you’re checking up on him too often, of course you’re gonna run out of things to talk about. Leave a few days in between so that even if he’s being a bum this summer, you can still give him the deets on all the excitement that you’ve got going on. And don’t be afraid of talking too much – tell him what’s happening in your life because you never know what topic is gonna spark his interest, or maybe give you an idea of a question to ask him.

 

If you’re just dying to call your guy, but it hasn’t been that long since you last talked, that’s okay, too. Remember that not every phone call has to be super-lengthy. So check in with him, but have an excuse ready so you can hop off the phone before the silence sets in. That way, you’ve reminded him that you exist, and you can leave some topics for the next time you wanna hear his cute voice.

It's always really akward when me and my crush text... he isn't very good at keeping a convo going and admittedly neither am I. He typically replies with one word and it ends up being me asking questions and him not really texting at all. Help!!

 

Hey! You just have to persist in asking questions. it takes two to keep a convo going, so he has to respond too.

I really need some help here. Ive known the guy that I like for about two months now, and we get along pretty well. We mostly see each other at band practice because we're both in our school's marching band....and that's when we usually talk. However, we gave each other our numbers around the time we met because we liked talking to each other, etc. At one of our football games a few weekends ago, he turned around from where he was standing on the field (in front of me), but I didnt look back at him the first time so he turned around again. The second time he turned around he called my name, and when I said "what?" he just smiled, didnt say anything, and turned around again. We text a lot, and a week ago I told him that I had feelings for him, but I kept it short and to the point, but he never texted me back. I waited 24 hrs before texting him again, and he replied, but we didnt talked about it and havent since. What do I do??!

Hey girl,

If you told him you liked him, especially over texting, he was probably surprised and not sure how to respond. If he hasn't brought it up, he's probably not ready for a relationship, so it's probably best to stay friends at least for now!

I only get to see my crush over the summer at camp. We've known each other for a long time though, and we always go to the same camp every year no matter what. Is it worth crushing on him, or should i move on..?

 

Hey! You can have more than one crush if you want Smile it's possible to like someone else even if you have a special place in your heart for this guy too Smile
