Q: I'm 13 and in the U.S. I have been liking this one boy for almost a year. And everyone keeps telling me that I am too young for a boyfriend. What age is too young??? And how do I avoid the comments like you're to young???
I had this same problem. I was 11 and this guy kept asking me out. So I said yes. I told my parents and they thought of it as a joke. Anyway, most relationships that happen with kids 13 and under don't last long. But if you really love this guy and truly care for him then go for it. And just ignore the people who say that you're too young. Mostly everyone has had "crushes" and "young love." The age for dating depends on the person. But I would say that 13 is a good age to handle the break ups.

Q: For a while now, I've liked my guy friend as more than a friend, but I'm not sure he likes me back.
He always reads my blog when no one else does, and he talks to me when I sit next to him in lessons. When I sit next to him, he acts comical and does things like take my ruler or swap out pens.
He sometimes leans on me when he's talking to the boy sitting the other side of me, and our elbows will often be touching for minutes at a time (with neither of us moving them).
I sometimes see him looking at me, and when he talks to me when we sit opposite each other, he often looks at me in the eyes.
We like the same things, so he often messages me links about them,, or puts funny things.

What do you think? What should I do to subtly tell him I like him as more than a friend, if I should?

Thanks :)
From my perspective of things it seems like he likes you more than a friend as well. But don't get your hopes up because you don't know this as a fact yet. Maybe you should talk to some of his guy friends and ask them if he talks about you a lot. This is one of the signs that he likes you. Another sign is when boys "pick on you." Weather it may be him poking you or jokingly stealing your pens. He's trying to get you attention. Most guys like attention. I think you should tell him how you feel. Most likely he will understand.

Q: 15/f this guy 17/m we have been talking for like two months now he goes to my school. we talk all the time and its not awkward or anything we are really good friends and we talk about anything and everything. he'll usually always text me first and he'll say he thinks im a cool person and a cool person to talk to, im attractive, im really down to earth, nice and everything. and the other day we were talking about how when we both at a party I was drunk and that was the first we were talking really and he wasn't drinking and I wanted to hook up (make out) with him just because it was a spontaneous thing but he was like I cant im talking to this girl they had like a thing or whatever but now that's over I was telling him how that night I didn't like him and he was like was it because I didn't hook up with you and I said I think that had something to do with it and he said did you want to hook up and I said yeah I think so and then he asked if I still wanted to and I said yeah I would. and by this point he had been asking me to hangout for a while so I said oh this is why you wanna hangout and he said no if I just wanted to hook up with you I would've just asked and never talked to you again I actually really wanna hangout with you because I like talking to you. so I am so confused if hes just "beating around the bush" with I like this about and I like that about you, he wont come out and say I like you but I have no idea. I asked my friend whos in his grade if hes really talking to anyone and she said no hes not. his best friend that im friends with told me he was talking about me saying that he thinks im a cool girl and about the hook up thing and how hes not really looking for a relationship. but I don't even know if I am either I just want to know how he feels about me only because If I hook up with another guy I don't want him to think like he doesn't mean anything to me or whatever so im just confused
In your mind it may seem like he's totally into you. In his mind he may think of you as a girl-friend. Here are some questions you should ask yourself: Do I really like this boy? Is he the right one for me? Or does he just want to get in my pants? You have to be carful with boys. Some of them may not even like you for you but for your looks or body. From what you've said in your paragraph in which you described you problem it seems that in fact he does like you. But you might want to take this relationship slow if he was recently talking to another girl.
