I am in the seventh grade (13/F) and my best friend Allie and her friend Jennifer want to hook me up with this guy I like. He's one of those annoying twit types that never lets you forget it if you get embarrassed.. but once you get to know him he's a really great person. I talk to him really easily and he flirts with me A LOT (plays with my hair during language arts, annoys me a lot, calls me names, talks to me during lunch, and an assortment of other things), and all my friends say he likes me.. but if they're wrong then I'd never hear the end of it. Everybody in the grade would be saying how a goodie-goodie smart girl likes someone and that it's "cute" and all of that kind of stuff. And imagine the RUMORS!! Should I really let Jennifer and Allie hook me and this guy up or should I leave this crush thing alone?
FunnyCide answered Monday January 3 2005, 11:04 pm: ok, look. if you like this guy, and he likes you, don't worry about what the freaks say about you! you wont even care if you're happy with this boy!! let the rumors fly... if there're not true, they're not true. i mean, come on! someone might say that you are dating this kid 'cause you want to cheat off of him, but secretly you're older than you say you are and you failed once before. WHO CARES?! if it's not true, just counter it and say that they are lyiers! I think that if you're happy with him, you should go for it. Let your friends hint that you might like him.. and see how he responds. or you could just let them ask him out too... it just depends on what you want to do. or you could always get his aim s-n and e-mail address (if he has one) and talk to him online. that's a good way to build relationships, you know. you could hint tha you like him, but you shouldn't ask him out. girls shouldn't ask guys out. that gives the guy the wrong idea sometimes... anyway. good luck!!
