Help! I like a jerk--should I give him a chance?

  • Puppy love? Puh-lease
Everyone tells me this guy likes me and that we should date, but he always acts mean to me around his friends. He is friends with the typical "wrong group," but I know that he's good inside. How do I help him get over his ego or stop caring so much?
 
Hey girl! Ugh, the "bad boy" act can be so annoying. To figure out if his not-so-cool attitude is here to stay, find a time when just the two of you can have a chat. Avoid lunchtime or in between classes when your friends are everywhere. Make sure the only person he's thinking about or trying to impress is you. Then, tell him how you're feeling. Say that you think he likes you, and that makes you happy, but you're not sure if he really does because he's always acting mean to you around other people. What gives? Listen to what he has to say. If he apologizes and says he'll treat you with the respect you deserve, whether or not his crowd of friends is around, awesome! There's hope for you and this boy.

However, if he comes back with a mean retort and is unable to leave the attitude at the door, even when talking with only you, then it's probs time to say goodbye. There are def lots of other boys out there who are totes crushable, without the rudeness factor. It's not worth worrying about someone who is mean to you, no matter how cute he is. Best of luck, chica!

Okay so this boy i like he is really funny and sarcastic like me and nice. But we always like "Fight" with eathother like if i answer something and its wrong he would be like "Good job smart stuff!" And i would say the typical Shut up and we kinda just "fight" but it makes me laugh like that but theres times we laugh and have a good time together. All my friends say he likes me because he always tries to make me laugh and other things also and he is "Mean." to me. Is there chance he likes me? but the thing is that theres days we go not talking to eachother. IS there a tiny chance he likes me and how can i know?

 

Hey girlie, there's absolutely a chance that he likes you. Him being mean to you might be his way of flirting. Try talking to him more and getting to know him better. Flirt with him and see how he responds to it.

Oh sweet heart if he's mean to you then you shouldn't spend your time liking him.That said you can't force yourself to stop liking him. You should try to get the good to come out in him.Don't know if I helped.Smile

I like my ex-friend. He hit me and called me string beans because of my hair. I told him I would never talk to him again and now I don't know what to do. I want a boyfriend so bad (not to be desperate.

 

hey! try saying hi to him, and if he brings it up, just say you're sorry and want to be friends again. it'll be like nothing happened Smile good luck!

I really liked this guy at school and i told my best friend. She asked me to rate how much I liked him and it was an 8 of 10. At that point she said she was crushing on another guy. However, once i got his phone number she said she like him and then got him to ask her to prom. How do I not look sad, mad, or jealous when I see the two of them together?

 

Hey! The only way to get rid of these feelings in a healthy way is to talk with your friend about them. Yes, that's hard, but the alternative is pretending you're not upset when you are, and that could really poison your friendship with this girl in the long run. Honesty is always the best for everyone
