I have a crush on a guy that's I've known for 3 years. he is on year older than me and his younger sister, who is one year younger than me, is my best friend. I've had a crush on him for more than 4 years and we used to like each other, but not to the point of dating. She's told me that she THINKS he likes me too but we're not really sure. My mom and his mom are REAL good friends, but my mom is the boss and their mom is an employee, and according to my mom she doesn't want us to date or be anything more than friends because she's afraid if anythign will happen, it will ruin their relationship. My 3 questions are--How do I drop hints to let him know I still really like him? How do I know or get him to show that he likes me too? (because at times he can be a real bi0tch.) and how do i show my mom that if anything happens we'll stay friends? (i've already tried talking to her about it...) thx (link)
You've been watching for signs. You're ready to tell him you like him. How do you do it? Well, some people write letters, but you don't always know that his eyes will be the only eyes that see it. Maybe they will. Probably not. Most people get a friend to tell. This has it's advantages. If your feelings aren't mutual, you don't have to melt into a puddle of embarresment at his feet. But if you like a guy, shouldn't you be able to tell him yourself?

10 GOOD WAYS TO TELL HIM:
1) sit behind him on the bus, and strike up a conversation
2) offer him the extra ticket you have to the concert
3) put your towel next to his at the pool
4) go to his games, or ask if he'd like to come to yours
5) ask him to dance at the school dance
6) call him up and ask him if he and his friends want to go with you and your friends to the play
7) ask him and his friends to join you and your friends in a game of basketball at recess
8) tell him how much you liked that report he did, and ask if he wants to work on the next one together
9) make plans to go to DQ after school, and invite him to come along
10) challenge him to a rubber-ducky ringtoss and the school carnival.

But where, you may ask, are the words "I like you"? NOWHERE. You don't need a big declaration to let a boy know how you feel. It'll be perfectly clear because of your friendliness. If he's interested, he'll take you up on your offers. If he's not, he won't. Either way, you'll have your answer.

Sit down and talk with your mom. Tell her you'll always put your friendships first, and assure if anything happens to you two as a couple, you will always remain friends.

Good luck!
