there's this guy (yeah, yeah, i know it's not original, but it makes sense this way!) i've liked nearly all this year, and i think he likes me. he's showing all the signs (e.g. choosing seats near me, watching me, then turning away when i see him, etc.) but i'm not sure. see, i nearly always sit near my friend, and i'm sometimes not sure if it's me he wants to be near or watch, etc., or her.i know the obvious solution would be to not sit near my friend, and see what he does, but i don't want to. i really believe in that saying about not choosing guys over your friends, and i don't want to just ditc her. (btw, she doesn't know that i like this guy. we're not close enough for that, but we've been frinds for seven years or something. she's not all that close with anyone else in the class) what would you do if you were me? also, i'm kinda shy sometimes, so i don't wanna just ask him. i know this doesn't leave many options, but...
wild-irish-rose answered Monday December 1 2003, 2:30 pm: I can sympathize with being shy. What I'd do if I were you is ask him somewhere. Something small at first, like if he wants to get a cup of coffee or a pop after school with you and a couple of friends, and let it go from there. Or ask him to a school dance or party or something.
I'd definitely stick with your friend, though. You should never have to choose between a friend and a guy.

If i were you i would try to watch how he acts around your friend. Maybe you could try to ask around the school to see if anyone knows who he likes...
Hope i helped,

I have went through this same problem a few years ago. The best way to do things is to make time for both of them. Sit between your friend and your guy. If you and your friend have been friends for 7 years, maybe if you tell her about this guy, she will understand.
shay*shay answered Monday December 1 2003, 10:42 am: If you have had friend for seven years you must be close. Just make her swear to keep your secret. If you dot want to do that try talking to the guy see if hes interested in you. [ shay*shay's advice column | Ask shay*shay A Question ]
