Why does your crush act so weird around you?


 

Check these out, too...

  • The Real Deal: Why guys hate shopping
  • Saved the best for last day
  • Is there a way to flirt without being obvious?
How come boys act weird around girls they like? Is there a certain reason why?
 
His Answer: “Boys get nervous around girls they like because there is something at stake, and that makes them act weird,” reveals Drew, 16.
 
Decoded: Basically, guys can be a nervous wreck around girls, but their way of showing it is by acting weird. When a guy really likes a girl, they're afraid of losing their chance with her and messing things up. Sometimes it’s hard for the guy to be the one to put himself out there first. He’s nervous about what you think about him and doesn’t know how to show it.
 
Your Move: Don’t assume just ‘cause they’re guys that they don’t get jittery around their crushes. If your cutie is acting weird around you, just try to act as normal as possible and make him feel comfortable. If you start the conversation and express your feelings for them they won’t be as nervous.

So I've liked this guy in my spanish class for a while now, and he always made little gestures that made me think he liked me. He would lean in to me when we talked, poke my sides, mess with my paper, basically anything to come in contact with me. He was on crutches and always asked me to leave class 5 minutes early with him, which I loved because I got to spend time with him alone. But nothing exciting ever happened. He recently told me he likes me, but since then he has stopped those cute little flirty things that used to make my day. We text and he calls me beautiful and says all these sweet things but in person, he doesn't do the same. He kinda acts like we're just friends. But he told me he invited me over next tuesday because he said he has something to ask me. I really hope he asks me to be his girlfriend! <3333
I know it's long.. SORRY!

Hey girl,

If he told you he likes you, I wouldn't worry! He might have just been doing those flirty things to show you that he liked you before he told you. Since you know how he feels about you, don't be afraid to tell him the same. Good luck!

So I've had this guy friend for 2 and a half years now and I really like him. The problem is I'm not aloud to date till I'm 16. He's asked me out a few times and I don't want to hurt his feelings... What should I do?

MOD MOD MOD!!! I really like this guy, and I think that he likes me because he acts weird around me as if he likes me. I would flirt with him more, but the thing is that he seems to always be with a girl who's kind of my friend, and they seem to like each other, so I don't want to get in the way. I do really like him though, and I think that he also likes me, so should I flirt with him and possibly ask him to homecoming, or let him flirt with the other girl? It's hard to tell if they are just friends or more than that, because he does have other friends that are girls. I'm also afraid to flirt with him in front of people if they know that the other girl likes him, because that would be really awkward. Do you have any advice? Thanks!

 

Hey dancemagic320, I think you should flirt a little. If you don't put yourself out there, you'll never know what could happen. And if you can, try to talk to him when he's by himself. If you can't don't worry about those other people. Just be confident and friendly, and I'm sure he'll like ya back. Hope this helps! Xoxo

I like this guy, and whenever I try to talk to him, he either answers really fast, like he doesn't care, or i don't get to talk to him at all. How do I show him my true colours if I only get one class with him a day? All my friends say that if he doesn't see who I truly am, then he's not worth it but I really like him!


Hey, Girl! Sorry for the “stock” message. We’re psyched you’re here but since this is a super busy time, mods aren’t able to answer personal advice or contest questions. We’re approving your comments now so the girls can start offering feedback right away! If you still have questions, please come back, we’re happy to help…or just let the other chicas answer now! (They give awesome advice, trust us!) Love and thanks! ♥, Your Blog Patrol Babes

Okay. Well, I really like this guy, and he's one year older than me. He is one of my best friends (since I moved to IN about a little over a year ago). He's in marching band, and he keeps telling me to join (I really don't play a band instrument) and gives me advice about high school. We talk A LOT, and our families are pretty good friends. We were partners in a class last year, and my friend thinks he likes me. I wouldn't know flirting if it slapped me in the face, so... Does he possibly like me? We've also hung out on church trips (on one he spent the whole weekend with just me even though some of our other friends were there Smile ) Sorry it's long. Thanks in advance!!!

 

Hey girlie,

It's totally possible he likes you! It's tough to tell since we don't know a whole lot about him/what you talk about/how he acts around you vs. how he acts around other girls, but the fact that he wants you to join something he loves and that he wants you to do well in HS means a lot. Talk to him more and try to work in some flirting - compliment him, tease him, joke around, etc. See how he responds Smile
