Question Posted Saturday September 18 2004, 7:48 pm
Hey...im 14, a female, and just started the 9th grade a few weeks ago, there wis this one guy everyone was always talking about...all the girls from my middle school thought he was just SO hot but the girls from his middle school don't really care for him...well of course I had to fall for him...i've gotten a lot less shy when it comes to guy but I still have that "barrier" so like i got his sn and started talkin to him like the 4th week into school...I never really knew what to say to him b/c I didn't know him very well at ALL. (I love guy friends...and I wanted him to at least be one) Like he kinda seems to flirt with everyone ya know? but he flirts with me alot when i'm around him, it's akward...it's like i can't tell if he means ir or is just leading me on...the thing is, is that he doesnt really know me that well or how i behave or ne thing like that so i guess he doesnt seem to comprehend that i dont just want a "more then friend" thing outta all guys ( even thought i wouldnt mind one with him ;) ) so he kind assumes i guess that i'm just always "pushing myself on him"...one of his newer friends is like my best guy friend (even though me and him are having a shaky realtionship right now) and so like at lunch ill go and sit with my "best guy friend" so i can sit with him (no one knows that though! lol) and i just get so many mixed signals...but oh yeah...i'm white and he is too but he thinks that i date black boys and like them and all and I don't but idk for sure if he understands that or not or just like messes with me just so we have something to talk about ( ihope you understand what i mean by that, like just so that theres something he can say to me...i just had to add that too)...anyways, but...yesterday night my friend (in 10th grade) had a party and he was there too...and i found out from another friend that when he was standing with these like 3 or 4 other people he said something along the lines of that i liked him and was like "obsessed" with him...and that just really confused me! b/c i know i say that kinda stuff about people when i want ppl to know that this one guy likes me, i guess to brag in my own way or something but idk what guys mean when they do it! (he said this at like the middle of the party) but then he was like flirting with me towrds the end of the party...) idk if he just does that kinda stuff (like flirt with me and all) b/c he knows ill do it back or has figured out that i like him, but im just so confused and would love to knwo what to do! the thing is that i dont treat him any different than any of my other guy friends and dont talk to him more and in a diff. way...so thats why i said he just doesnt know how i act very well...i just dont know why he would say that i was obsessed! it just makes me feel so stupid ya know! im just so used to like recebtly all these guys that i go to school with and good friends with sayin how i could get ne one and then he comes along and is just kinda thrown in that circle and i hope he's not going to mess it up! im not going to lie i would love to have him! but...i just wanna know how he sees me! like if i really do annoy him or if he's just saying somehting differnet on the outside then on the inside ya know? and i also said that he's gettin tight with my best guy friend and he better not tear me and him apart! :-/! gosh im just so confused! just can you tell me what to do, if i should just not talk to him so he doesnt keep on thinkin im obsessed or w/e...any advice what so ever is welcome! please help me in any way you can! and i know this is a mess so hope ya can understand what i mean! ya may needa think long and hard about this response! thanks SO much! i just had to tell somebody! :-) im really really sorry its so long i just couldnt make it short! hope you arent upset....

So forget him cuz sooner or later he'll hurt you..and it'll suck so get away before he causes any damage. [ Sherry's advice column | Ask Sherry A Question ]
