Q: Okay, so I'm a 14 year old female. There's this guy in one of my classes, and he's a junior. Since the beginning of the year, he has always paid "special attention" to me, like teasing me and stuff. I even recall a while back in October-ish, I was walking in the hallway afterschool, l and he was with his friend, and he stopped to talk to me.
Now, he's always like looking at me in class, especially when I talk to any guys. But I don't know if I'm just imagining the signs or if he teases me just to look cool in front of his friends. Or maybe he's just a friendly guy.

Oh, let me add some more details about us, I guess. I gave him a present over christmas break (it was just a card lol) and he seemed to really like it, he had this big smile on his face. And he's always telling me how nice I look. Also, I'm the girl he talks most to in class (this isn't much though, because there arent a lot of other girls in the class and all the girls are freshmen) I expect HIM to tell ME if he likes me or not, because he's a junior, and if I say no to him (which I wouldnt), it shouldnt be a big blow to his ego. But he keeps on dropping hints that he likes me as something..more. That's where I'm getting confused. Luckily there's a winter formal coming up on the 9th that he can ask me to AND valentine's day 5 days later. Think I should ask him to the dance? (sorry, that turned out much longer than I planned it to).

oh and there was also this time in December, when we had free time in class and him and his friends were talking about THE basketball game of the season, and suddenly the guy turned to me and asked me if I was going. I told him I wasn't, and he asked, "why not?" Of course, me being STUPID and MISSING the hint, I said "i'm kinda busy," when I really wasn't (i was completely and totally free!!), because I was embarassed at being singled out like that. If i were smart i would've said "no, because I can't get a ride". and he mightve invited me to come. sorry it's so long T_T
I don't really know what your question is, but if you are asking me what I think he feels about you.... the answer is YES I think he likes you. I almost know it. If he goes out of his way to talk to & compliment you, then there must be atleast the smallest attraction. The attraction might not be great, but it is deffinately there. That was really cute that you got him a card & I think it was good on your part to say "I'm busy" in regards to the game. It left him guessing, maybe he thought you were hanging out with another guy, etc. Guys like girls that play hard to get... But then again, I would also recommend you asking him to the dance. Oh sorry, I just re-read your question & now see that THAT was your question. So yeah, ask him! Go for it. Don't be too egar about it, ask casually. If he says yes, congratulations! but let him make the move for Valentines Day. You've put yourself out there.. the ball's then in his court. Please tell me how it goes! & write back if you need anymore advice. :)

That's way better advice than what I got from the public. xP Thanks!
