So here's the thing.

Okay, so I posted here before about Jake, and I'm not sure if I should have put another post, and if that was wrong, terribly sorry.

But anyways, so tomorrow is another dance. I'm going, and hopefully Jake is too. We have talked a few times during school, not much, I can never seem to "bump" into him. But since homecoming, a few weeks ago, my feelings have only gotten stronger. I want to go out with him, it'd be great. His best friend and my best friend are dating! And hes sooooo nice, and he makes me laugh so hard I can't breathe. I just don't think he likes me. I want to try to flirt with him, but I am kind of self conscious, and nothing ever seems to come out right. I want him to ask me out. I want him.


What should I do?

What makes you think he doesn't like you?

If he's 13, he's probably terrified of asking you out, it's that guy fear of rejection thing. The antidote to this is for you to make it abundantly clear to him that you really like him, so the risk is lowered.

You might also remember that there are many ways of communicating your feelings, not only with words, but with actions, too. Laughter, eye contact, smiles, sitting close, all communicate your interest and approval. Try these, don't be bashful.

Well he's 14, but he just doesn't strike me as the type of person that would be afraid of asking someone out. I'm not really sure what makes me think that he doesn't like me. Actually, every time he is around me it seems as though he is flirting with me.


Maybe its just me that thinks he doesn't like me. Maybe he does and I'm not realizing it.

Yeah, so often people are so focused on themselves and tgeir own feelings that they forget to focus on the other person!

Seperate your own feelings out here, if he seems to like you then he probably does. Make sure you're communicating clearly that you like him, don't spend so much time focusing on you.

sometimes the guy i like seems to ignore me even tho i kno he likes me back because he told me (long story have just created a new thread!)

but it might be because this guy has other friends, my guy does

guys have to be manly and be around their mates, they might be embarrassed about being near their friends when they're around u. guys can be harsh.
