i am a female and i am 13. i really like this kid evan(male, 13). and we were at a party a couple of weeks ago and he was like hugging me a lot and flirting with me. i didnt like him then but when i was upset because the boy i did like, david kissed my best friend and i started crying and then evan started telling me i could do better than him and hugging me really tight and close to him. now i like evan, and my friend asked him if he would ever go out with me and he said no, which really confussed me cause we were friends and we always flirted in the hall but he wouldnt go out with me now? we arent in the same class but i see him alot in the hallways, i dont get it.. what can i do to get him to like me? im going to a party saturday and i really want to impress him.
he felt bad for you. most guys can't handle girls tears. some guys flirt when they're uncomfortable. that may have been what he was doing.
i'm actually rather surprised that you don't have a problem with your best friend letting your crush kiss her. i mean, backstabbing to the max.
anyway, play a lil' hard to get, guys want what they can't have. if all else fails, use the tried and true: just walk up to him and kiss him. if chemistry doesn't work on some persuasive level, not much will [ PerkyPeacock's advice column | Ask PerkyPeacock A Question ]

When you're emotionally distressed, it's easy to just turn to someone who makes you feel better, even when you don't necessarily have those kinds of feelings for them. If you really do like Evan, then I would suggest talking to him. You can't always rely on what he says to someone else, so talk to him one on one and find out what's really going on.
As for the second part of your question, don't sacrifice who you are for the sake of a guy, EVER. Believe me, it isn't worth it--there are TONS of guys out there who will love you for who you are. Don't change for the ones who won't. Just be yourself! Good luck =) [ theblondeone989's advice column | Ask theblondeone989 A Question ]

...Maybe he just said that because he was shy or so yoru friend or his friends would not tease him about liking you or due to fear of rejection. OR he sees you as just a friend OR he likes you but doesn't want to ruin your friendship.
Anyway, I think the best you can do is be yourself. Oh, and be sweet and kind. And don't lead him to believe you like some other boy... It's almost Christmas so giving him some kind of small gift would be nice. As for the party... maybe you could ask him to a dance. Take a chance. That's the best you can do for yourself.
Good luck! ~Blessed Be... [ Cath's advice column | Ask Cath A Question ]
