I need some advice!\nThis guy at school...driving me crazy...we both like each other a lot...he is afraid to ask me out and I am the same...but I found out today he is afraid that when he goes to high school in August that people will make fun of him for going out with someone a year younger than him...one of my friends were supposed to tell him that if he really liked me the way I liked him then it shouldn't matter...but then he left so I need help on getting him to change his mind and asking me out...I am afraid that if I ask him he will say no for the above reasons...but I don't see why he can't go out with me til the end of this school year...please help...I don't want to call him because I have no earthly idea as to what I would say\nI even thought of telling him that no one would have to know but I never got a chance to...and it really upset me because I liked this guy more than I have ever liked someone.\n\n\nPLEASE HELP ME!!!!

let him know you like him and see how he reacts to this then say maybe we can go out some time. that way he can be able to ask you out instead. then you don't have to worry about it.

I would suggest that you go out with someone who invited you out...meaning he's the one that is much interested to get to know u! even if you wanted to go out with this guy that you are crushing( as a girl i can say that)...it's actually advisable to go for someone who's more interested in us that us to them.  Maybe it's a blessing in disguise, just when you are thinking of asking a guy out this guy asked you for a date, maybe it's one way of saving you from the possible heartache that you might experience once you will be rejected!  it's really difficult when we do the first move because we might get hurt....or if you will succeed the first time, that's not even a guarantee that there will be 2nd or 3rd now, will you be happy asking a guy out forever!  Just date this guy who invited you out...try to get to know him...who knows you might end up liking him in the end!

Take a deep breath, it will all be fine, if he's not interested big deal. He's not going to walk around telling everyone you asked him out and he turned you down. You know what my personal moto is- Glory to the brave. When ever I want to ask out a girl or approach a girl and I start to fear rejection I say to myself Glory to the Brave and do it. I've got rejected before, but in a few days you'll never remember and I've also gone out with some beautiful girls, and that wouldn't have happened if I didn't have the balls to make a move

Great for you. He likes you. Please dont hide your feelings so well. If guys knew what girls really tought they wouldnt be so scared to ask you out. show that you like him more. Touch him a lot and give him lots of hugs just try it. dont be scared. Hes the scared one. Good luck!!!!\n\nThe answer above me sounds crazy but its true just watch his eyes all the time if hes looks at you or around you a lot he likes you.

i was the same way you are. i liked this guy and i wanted to ask him out. i was afraid to because i was afraid of being rejected.the thing is girls arnt the only ones afriad of rejection. guys are also afraid of rejection.for all you know it he could like you back but is afriad that you dont like him, so he is afraid that you will reject him.just go for it. ask him out, you two could actually end up together at the end.rejection is going to happen to you eventually wether its rejection from a job,college, etc. so why not get over the fear and ask him. you only live once so make the best of it and take chances.

Sorry but this somehow sounds a little odd to me.\nHe seems to know that you're interested in him but still doesn't make a move?\nIs there something wrong with him? Saying that if she asks me out I would accept but then not doing the step to ask you out?\nI'm not into the notes thing but if your friends know and told him already, what's he waiting for??\nIf he's soooooooooo shy, do you think he's the right guy for you?\nWell, depending on your preferences about a man, of course...

r u 11? if so i have advice for u. (im 11) we have a dance at the end of the school year and i had a best friend named michael. everyone had dates already and i decided 2 ask him. after discussing it w/my friend, i went up 2 him at recess and said, "can i talk 2 u for a minute?" we walked and i beat around the bush for awhile (good tactic) and then i said, "im just gonna come right out and say it. will u come 2 the dance w/me?" he replied (after thinking about it), "ok. but this conversation never happened." u can imagine how happy i was!? but basicly, ask 2 talk, beat around the bush, and then say a sentance that describes what u want (e.g., will you go out w/me? can i be ur girlfriend?). hope it works! and about the other girl, just leave her alone. if she gives u trouble, take it 2 the teacher. just dont mention your boyfriend!

ok heres my thought on this its kinda tricky and it depends on what school year your in (like last year of highschool or something)  i reccomend try to get a phone number because if you can get that you know he is willing to be open to you.  if you get the number tell him how you feel and then it'll be a lot easier becasue you have his number already.  also if you both have a sense of humor and he's kinda reacting funny to you telling him how you feel you can always say "you know i have your number i could just call everyday to bother you...." (or something like that) if someone said that to me id bust up laughing  anyway if he likes you you'll get his number and even if you can't get it out that day you can always call during the summer. also a better tactic would be (depending on what year of school you in) to see if he wants to do something with you.  if he likes you he'll probably be relieved that you asked instead of him asking (been there done that its nerve racking)

You've asked him out a gilllion times this year?  I'm not sure how many a gilllion is, but it sounds like a lot.  And he hasn't gone out with you?  You don't know if he likes you back?  Hmmm, how many times being turned down does it take before you get the idea that he doesn't like you that way?  Face it, he just isn't into you.\n\nWhat you should do is stop asking boys out.  Find things to do that are useful and interesting and make yourself a more interesting and useful person.  The right boy will then ask you out.

Well, the advice I would give to myself if I had this problem(which i have had before) is to go for it! Tell him in person that you likr him and you hope he likes you to. I have alot of guy friends and they all come to me for advice on girls. They all say they hate to get notes from someones best friend asking them out. They love girls who are brave enough to ask them themselves! And if he says no then at least you know and you can try to move on!! Keep in touch and tell me hoe it goes. sammie_robison@yahoo.com

If he wrote it was too bad you didn't go out, he so likes you.  Call him and see if he asks you out.  If you really do like him, go for it.  If he doesn't ask, see if you can get up the courage to ask him.  He'll probably say yes!!

There's no easy way to do this.  But I'd try to keep two things in mind:\n\nFirst, you're under no obligation to like someone just because they like you.  \n\nSecond, you are under an obligation to be honest, direct, and kind.  \n\nAs a guy who spent a lot of his teenage years getting turned down for dates, I'd say the way to go is to be polite, direct, and firm.  Don't express revulsion, or hold out false hope.  Just say "I'm sorry.  I don't feel the same way about you that you do about me, and I don't want to go out with you."  There's no need to be mean, but at the same time don't be apologetic about your feelings.  Don't tell him "maybe later", don't tell him it's because you're seeing other guys, don't tell him you can just be friends.  Break the news to him calmly, politely, and then -- this is really important -- LEAVE.\n\nLeaving is very important.  Guys have a nearly infinite capacity for self-delusion.  If you tell him "no" and then hang out with him, he might convince himself "Oh, she's just saying that, but really she likes me!  That's why she's spending time with me!"  Believe it or not, the kindest thing you can do for this guy after you break the news is to get out of his life and stay away from him for a while.  That will help him get over you more quickly.\n\nGood luck

It does sound like he likes you!\n\nHe also sounds like quite a cutie!\nWhat you should do , if you really want to go for it is next time you bump into him just really try to get talking to him, even if it starts off over somthing really stupid like what classes you have, just send him lots of good signals, smile and maintain eye contact, if he returns the signals the conversation should get easier. Try this for a few days and then just ask him if he wants to come out with you (and maybe a friend, just at first) on the weekend, or after school\n\nGoodluck!

As a man I will tell you our secret .....We are scarred to death you women will reject us....That's why most of us when were young go after the easy girls.....Not saying that you need to be easy ....but just ask him if he want to hang out after school ....I am pretty sure if he is looking at you like you say he's into you......But maybe a little intimidated by your beuty ....If he is then when you ask him out he may try to be macho and not show .....But on the inside he's going nuts....Hope I could help a bit

Your friend knows very well that he likes you. You need to ask yourself if you really like him? There is no point in going out with him just for the sake of it. You don't sound very interested in him. If you do like him then go for it. Tell your friend that if he was interested in her he would have ask her out not you.
