no,you should still like him maybe dating a older boy will help you mature and have one with you that is.

if he sits across from you then u must still be in school which means at this age boys are still unsure of them selves when it comes to woman. still shy. so it is up to you to let him know u like him. i would say he does like u though especially if he talks only to u and no one else. be brave and make the first move tell him how u feel. believe it doesn't change as u get older usually the woman is making the first move so u might as well get the practice now.

Dear Bunny,\n     Please don't be in a hurry to grow up!!!  You have YEARS ahead of you to become acquainted with men.  Enjoy your friends and peers.  Develop your own interests, activities, and hobbies.  Take time to become "you."  Relationships (especially in the teen years) can be a HUGE drain on your time and energy.  Enjoy being 13 (trust me, you'll be "old" soon enough!).  If this guy really cared about you, he would be willing to step back and wait until you are older.  Please don't let him push you into a relationship!!!  \n     A 17 year old boy who dates 13 year old girls is probably pretty insecure.  Why isn't he dating someone who is 17 or 18??

Even though it may seem cool that he likes you Tell him to back off and wait till you are older.\nMost 18 year olds seek relationships with girls close to their own age. A boy who singles out a much younger girl often has serious problems. You might get pressured for sex, He might become possesive or abusive. My 17 year old daughter says you should call the cops.

It depends how old you are.If you are young like 13.You don't know what love is yet.If not,you should talk to him and leave him clues.Take a risk and tell him you like him.Life is full of risks and if you never take them you will never experience life.Also you will always question yourself and be like i wonder if he liked me.Ask and see.If he say no.Keep Trying

how old is way too old? go out with the guy you have known for 4 years. It sounds like you may be able to trust him more

Tell him to grow up.  If he's not willing wait for you... that doesn't bode well for the long term.

Find someone your own age!!! Or atleast wait until he is an adult before you corrupt him.

Friend - I see no problems other than the age thing which you did not go into.  If you are under 16 and he is over, stay friends until things change.  Other than that, go for it...the worse that can happen is that the two of you will decide you are better friends than a couple.  GBY

well how old are you and if it's not such a huge age difference then just wait. If he has the same feelings he'll be ready to wait for you until you're 18 too so wait but tell him how you feel.

ok look....this can be a touchy thing..but you shouldnt let age get in the way. If you really like him it shouldnt matter. My bf is 18 and i'm 16 and we work out fine. I can understand why he lied because i was dating a 12 year old when i was 15 and he lied to me too. the only reason we broke up was because of distance.  I don't think it's wrong at all. Like I said if you like him, then forget his age...and he obviously wants to be with you..take advantage of that :)

how old is he?..if he's not old enough perhaps should delay the dating...if he is old enough still require parents approval of his choice of girl drop him!!

My personal opinion is that the age difference is not as important as the fact that you are not 18 yet.  I would wait just two more years... you will be 18 and he will be 27.  It is technically against the law in most places for that age difference when you are a minor.  Again, the age difference is not the biggest deal here, the fact that 16 makes you a legal minor.  I date much older guys too... but I waited till I was 18 and a legal adult.

Is he over eighteen? If not your mom's right. Take into mind maturity levels here. Boys mature slower then girls and if you think he's at the same level as you in wanted a lasting relationship you might be wrong. It really depends on how old you are and how old he is.
