Well, first off, you can't *make* someone like you.  \n\nSecond, tell him EXACTLY how you feel.  If he doesn't feel the same, and all he wants is a piece from you while you want more, kick him aside and find someone else who respects you for YOU and not your genitals.\n\nIn other words... communicate.  If you can't communicate now, you'll never be able to in a relationship, and before you know it?  You're on an episode of COPS, getting beaten up by your meth-addicted boyfriend who only wants you for sex.

You can't 'make' someone like you.  Just be yourself, be a friend, be down to Earth, just be normal and not push him into anything.

okay...so your friend and his girlfriend broke up.  You think it is because he likes you.  He is under the impression that they broke up a week ago, and she just told him that it's over.  Is that pretty much it.  So basically she ignored him for a week, and just got up the courage to end it.  \n\nWell...if he is your friend, then let him talk to you about it.  That's what friends are for.  You may be the reason, but may not.  Maybe she was jealous that you and him were friends.  Right now, it's not about you, it's about him.  If he wants to talk about it with you, then you, as his friend, should be there to talk to him about it.  \n\nGood luck!

i understand you are very frustrated...\n\n... i can see that you want him to make a decision\nbecause you hate being taddled along and dragged about\n....\nand you want a definite 'relationship' or 'not' kind of\n... relationship...\n\n... and i bet you... he understand that as well...\nbut put yourself in his shoes..\n\nif you had a boyfriend and were getting along fine...\nand suddenly, a single guy enters your world...\n\nand completely blows you away...\n.. now what would you do?\nyou might say, 'i'll take him,' but it's not that easy...\n\nhe's struggling...\nand i might take a step further to say...\nmaybe his girlfriend is on him about this...\nmaybe she's getting the hint he's not 100% committed to her\n\nmy best advice to you is... give him time...\n\nif you constantly prod him, he might completely ignore you..\n.. if you give him room for thinking and reconsidering,\nhe will seriously weigh it out...\n\n... moreover, he will see your understanding side\nand your compassionate, openness and he will run to you..\n\n.. meanwhile, you go out and have some fun...\ni don't mean cheat on your soon-to-be-boyfriend\nbut go out and meet your friends... guys and gals...\n\nmeeting other gals will set you back to your\ngiggling-chatty-girly mode, which will ultimately put you\nin a euphoria of confidence..\n\nplus, guys will drool over you, and you can neglect them\nand gain higher self-esteem...\n\ngodspeed

be yourself! never change your true inner self to make some one like you because then you will only be lying to your self. no relationship will ever last that way. be patient some one will come along you likes you for you

There really isnt a FAST way.  But there are ways that are more beneficial than others.\n\nFirst, happy hands = a happy mind. AKA stay busy!  If your consantly busy doing something, you wont have as much time to think about him, and maybe, with all the activity, you might find a new friend.\n\nSecond, make sure that the break off is a clean one.  What I mean is, there should be nothing of his around you that will remind you of him.  No pictures, phone numbers, clothing items, etc.\n\nThird, make sure he understands that it is over.  Tell him however you need to, to make things clear.\n\nForth, let him go...with in yourself.  You can not HALF do this.  If you want to break it off, dont 2nd guess yourself.  You need to have confidence in your actions, and you need to believe that what you are doing is for the best.\n\nFinally, enjoy yourself.  After loosing something that had a large impact on your life for so long, you need to fill it with things that are fun for you.  Treat yourself!  Take yourself out, devote a day to the spa, or go to a bar/club with some girlfriends.  Stay positive and have fun.\n\nGood luck!

You should give him the same exact respect you would want him to give you...but I have a feeling you have already gone beyond where that line is with you.\nSit down with him.  Tell him how much he has meant to you, but that you have changed and he doesn't mean that anymore.  Be honest, the worst thing you can do to yourself is lie.\nI would caution you on one thing though-the new relationship is always going to seem exciting-at first.  Then it becomes just another relationship.  Don't keep the current guy hanging on while you find that out.  Since you betrayed his feelings, it is better for him if you move out now and be honest with him.\nI am not judging you harsly, it just sounds that way.  I have been on  BOTH sides of this arguement so I know what you are feeling and I know what he is going to go through.  \nJust be a good person about it, as good as you can anyway.

You continue to be their friend. Take it from me; guys aren't normally friends with girls for nothing. I guarantee you there's something about you that he likes. You wouldn't be his friend if there wasn't. Just remain close to him and let the other relationship do its thing. If it doesn't work out between them, then and only then, do you tell him how you feel. Let him take it from there. The best thing you can do is to not interfere with or try and sabotage his relationship with his girlfriend. If he ever finds out he will resent you. You will forever lose his trust and you two will never be together. Remain his friend, but don’t waste your life waiting around for his relationship to fail. You have fun, too!! Find your own guy to date. Maybe him seeing you with another guy will get his attention. But don’t date just to make him jealous; date because you want to. You never know, there may be a guy out there who has already fallen in love with you like you did with your friend! And you may miss out on a wonderful guy that’s been waiting to make you feel so special because you’re waiting on a guy who's already involved with someone else...

what can i say? You can't make someone like you it just does not work that way in real life. If she doesn't notice what a great guy you are but instead go out with that retard as you said then she's not worth it becuase she cannot see a REAL guy in front of her and thats you. Plus if you really care about her then you'll let her be happy and then....who knows what happens?\nHope I helped \n=)\nGood luck!

Be friends. That is always my answer to this question. Being friends will allow you to know the "real" Matt. Guys put on a "representative" to impress our girlfriends and the "real" us we hide until later. Sometimes we never let him out!! You want to know the "real" him, be his friend. Guys don't feel the pressure of having to impress a girl when we're only friends. You'll also find out how he feels about his ex when you have your "friendly" talks. Once you get to know him better and you find out that you like the "real" him, take it to the next level. You'll have all the information you'll need to know if he's the right guy for you.

You can't make a guy like you. Don't worry one will come along eventually and will like you for the person  you are. I'm guessing you're young, and hate to break it to you but love doesn't happen early in life for everyone. Just be yourself, and enjoy being young for as long as you can.

DON'T THINK THAT YOU CAN MAKE ANYONE LIKE YOU IF YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON ALL OF THOSE GREAT QUALITIES FOR SOME REASON WILL COME OUT TO HIM AND EVERYONE AROUND YOU. HEY MAYBE HE ALREADY LIKES[ASK HIM].

Be friends with that person. :) Be there through his good and even bad times. But remember that you shouldn't try to pretend to be somebody else just to make him like you. Just be yourself so that he will like you for who you are. :)

There is no way that a guy can like you and be with someone else, as far as I'm concerned he's probably trying to get something out of you, sorry but its true. If he "somewhat" liked you he would totally break up with his current girlfriend, and go with you. No, doubt about that happening but if he does like you and means it, he'll do it.

Be yourself.\nYou can't change who you are to make someone else like you. You would regret it.\nTalk to them find out what things you both like. Share feelings\n"D"

The best thing is to move on, you can't make anyone like you,. you really can't compete with a guy, so it is a lost cause I hate to say.. Theres some one out there for you. Best of luck.
