NO!! No notes, they are very immature. Show maturity and talk to him to his face.

Go for it. Life is short, and your teen years are even shorter, so have fun. Besides, I know I feel like it would be a God-send if women would ask shy guys out. If he says no, what's the worst that could happen?

You are not the shyest person, cause everybody think so when it comes to making the first attempt. I think it was a mistake for your friend to go to him instead of you. You should have went up to him. It shows that you are weak and cannot approach him. But don't worry you are probably a teenager, and we all felt the same your age. Make sure YOU go to him next time. Don't tell him you love him up front, but instead ask him out. If he says no, don't be too pushy and look for other fishes.

When you purposely go out of your way to avoid somebody, that's when you run into them. Just be yourself, if he speaks to you, just speak back and leave it at that. Trust me, he's going to recognize you, so don't even think that he won't. If you know he's coming to your school, you know he knows, that you go there. Whatever you do, don't bad mouth him to anybody, it'll only cause a feud between you two, nobody wants or needs unnecessary drama. If people find out that you used to date or like him, just tell them he's a thing of the past and it's not necessary to discuss him.

when i was 21 i was going out with a girl who was 16. we had a great relationship for almost 2 years and if i had a chance to do it all again i would. the only problem was that as she got older and matured we drifted apart but that can happen with any relationship no matter what age you are. give it a try but don't let him use his age and experience to get you to do anything you don't want to. good luck, hope all goes well

well it would help if you figured out why you are shy around him and than work on that. So if you are shy because for example you are scared what he might think of you than think well if he didnt want to be with you he wouldn't be so there isnt anything to worry. You are who you are and thats the way you find the one for you is by being true to yourself. Also let ssay you want to say something to him.. dont stay thinking about how you should say it or if you should as soon as it comes to mind say it so  you dont hae time to wonder if you should or should and your nerves would be there to torture you because you did it quick and got it out of the way.

Go with your heart...age is simply a number, my ex and I had such a difference and it was a wonderful, healthy relationship.  Her life took her overseas and we could not continue.  Please feel free to ask anything if you need to talk :)

why not send him a card and in the card let me know how you feel - if you are truly sorry - and want him back in your life - tell him this - let him know that this was the very thing he had to do to you to make you grow up and respect him.  but, remember, you really have to mean these words, you just can go back to your old ways with him - because the NEXT time, (if he forgives you, and, i think he will) he may not change his mind.   you can just get so many chances - until the person you are hurting, gives up on you. so hold true to your word to him, if you go with this idea. i wish you well.

I totally agree with you.  You should be able to have a friend whether they are your ex or not.  I am still friends with my high school boyfriend and I am 30 years old.  He has to understand that it is possible to be friends with an ex and be strictly friendship.  Talk with him and tell him you feel that he does not trust you.  Since he is having a problem with you going to see your friends and family it sounds like he is insecure all the way around.  Hopefully a heart to heart will reassure him.  Good Luck!

I don't know how old you are but I see the gut is 29 yrs old - I dont mean to be rude but aren't you all a bit old for this silly childish texting stuff.  If you like each other say so - ask him out or let him ask you - leave the stupid text mesages for the kids xxx

Unless you are absolutely insane, and want trouble, leave the ex alone.  Do not call him, do not see him.  You say he never actually cared about you, so why would you even consider talking to him.  Do not mess us a good thing!

You make the move yourself. If he's that shy it probably won't happen otherwise. But don't worry, if he's interested He'll be completely thrilled and you both will be happy. Then he'll have plenty of time to grow more comfortable and become less shy around you.  On the other hand, if he's not interested and he rejects you, he'll still be flattered and he'll be too shy to say anything that would make you feel bad. So it's a win win if you think about it. ;)

by the tone of your question, he is taking too long for you, so with the age difference he probably won't try to approach you.  If you are sure you want him..... then just tell him....you only live once!

Just have a face-to-face talk with him, communicate your feelings (as gently as possible) and be up-front. There's no real easy way to go about it...my ex of 2-1/2 years broke up with me a little while back, she broke my heart, and I still think about her alot, but it would have been much better if she would have been more straight-forward. So tell him exactly where you're at, it might hurt at the time, but you'll both be better off that way!
