Careful, long message ahead! (:
So, there are these two guys. I like both of them, but I don't know what to do. I like them in different ways.
One has been my best friend forever. When we moved into the neighborhood when I was 2, his mom and my mom became friends, and we've been close ever since. When he switched schools, we followed. I have known him forever, and we are very close.
Last year, going into 7th grade, I hadn't seen him for a year, (because he had transferred schools, and I had stayed, and I was now following him. Again. (: Haha) and that was probably the longest we've been apart. I was really happy to see him, but nervous too. I had changed a lot in the last year, and I was worried if he would still like me, if I would still be his best friend. I had issues with my self confidence, were wearing clothes that weren't my usual dress, but were like my comfort blanket. Eventually I got over it, but things weren't the same. We moved from a uniform charter school to a public middle school, so you really had to dress and act right to fit in. I could dress right, but I didn't because of this boy. I had friends, but a lot of the more "popular" people didn't like me, which were some of the people my guy friend hung out with. Things changed though, and I got more confident. However, we still weren't as close and didn't talk much.
This year, 8th grade, I am happy and confident, and things are different. He and I have 2 classes before lunch, and all 3 after lunch together. I sit next to him in my last 2 classes, math and science, and recently (like the last 2 months or so) he has been flirting (I think) with me a lot. He is often poking me, or tapping my should with a pencil when I turned the other way, and when I look at him, he says "It was (some person)" someone it obviously wasn't. He's always cracking jokes, and I sometimes flirt back. A few days ago even, I was talking to my friend and was in the way of his desk and he came up and pinched my sides, tickling me, to get me to move. (That's one of my questions: Is that flirting?) Also, at the Incoming Freshmen night at the Catholic high school I applied to, he saw me and ran over and hugged me. He'd never hugged me before. I think he's really funny, and he's always so sweet to me.
However, the problems are that he can be kind of innappropriate with the "popular girls". Well, its mostly them, and they are like on top of him. It kinda pisses me off, but I love him, because we're so close. Also, he might have done some... questionable things with his last gf. But, no one knows if those are rumors or if he made them up to seem cool. But I really do love him.
The second boy, I don't have as much of a past with. I knew him in kindergarden, 1st and 2nd grade, and then I left to go to the charter school. When I came back in 7th grade, I saw him sometimes, and I started liking him. But, we never really talked. My friends found out I liked him, yada yada, they told him, he knew, etc. However, my friend tells me one day in May, he likes me back. I was so happy then, but we didn't talk a lot, because we had no classes, and I only saw him a few times in the hall. But I really liked him and he seemed to really like me. However, he's Mormon, so he couldn't date. After school ended, I didn't see him, until school started again in August. It was just a bit awkward after not talking for months, and though I still liked him, and he still liked me, we broke up, because we really didn't know eachother. However, I never stopped liking him. I still do. Except, now, we don't talk. Period. We have only talked once since we broke up in August, and it was like a sentence. I still really, really like him. Everytime I see him, my heart starts to pound, and I get kinda happy and excited. Seeing him makes my day, even if we don't talk. Once in a while, our eyes meet, and I blush like crazy, but we don't talk. I really wish we could, I really like him, but I dont know.
I like both these guys. A lot. When you first read it, the obvious choice is probably my best friend, because we're so close, and he actually shows interest. But, I can't let the second guy go. 1: Do you think the first guy if flirting with/likes me? 2: What do I do in this situation with the two guys? I want to get over my ex, but I can't. Should I just move on to my guy friend? Or should I wait to see if either makes a move? And go with the first?
