all problems come from men.. *rolls eyes*


Question Posted Tuesday January 11 2005, 10:39 pm

I have this friend that I have been there with all the time. I wanted to ask him out but I don't think I've ever had a chance, been nothing but a friend and someone to free load hw off of... So, he asked one of my best friend out.. It was really wierd because, I was happy for him and her.. and everything, but I was angry and cursing myself for not taking a chance because I could just ask him after they broke up. She made some excuse that she was too busy to go out with him and he was completely crushed. So I left him alone with this, because well.. I'm his friend and I wouldn't want to just aggravate things further. Now there is some girl that is a cheerleader going after him.. She always has short flings with guys and is very capable of having a time to get a guy in her house and do things. I really don't think this is what he needs right now, and I don't want him to be even more depressed because then I will have to wait even longer for him to be ok for me to ask him out again.. *sigh* it's all so very complicated and I just hate this. I always forget what I want to say around him, feel nervous.. gah.. It's really funny because, he just doesn't see it.. like I never have a chance..

Let him lick his wounds for a bit then if you feel the time is right, start to let him know how you feel.I think this is not too too complimented. Get over your fears. He could already like you too. You will never know unless you put yourself out there. But don't wait too long,,,,,another girl will surely be in the wings.
And if this doesn't work out for you, then there will surely be another boy waiting in the wings for you. (there probably already is :) )

First off, it sounds like you're an excellent friend for (A) letting him chase after who he wants, even if it was your frien and (B) being considerate enough not to be TOO overeager to comfort him after she rejected him.

The cheerleader is another problem entirely. If you trust your friend a lot and know that he's got good morals, you can always let him deal with her on his own (or with just a few words of caution) and have it be a test of his chastity; would you really want a guy who's quick prey for a horny cheerleader, anyway? On the other hand, if you're really worried or this chick is some kind of incredibly seductive vixen, I would pull him aside one day and mention to him that the girl is after him and she's not good news and that, as a friend, you just want to look out for him and make sure he doesn't do anything careless or get in over his head.

Watch how he deals with things and think long and hard about how you really feel about him; if you still have feelings for him and think he's worth dating, just steel yourself up for it and mention it to him one day - under the most normal circumstances possible (it sounds like the boy doesn't need any further drama, and drama is in general something I despise anyway).

:( I feel you! Im in the same boat..i dont think the person i like would ever like me. But as a friend..maybe say to him.."you know..this cheerleader has a bad rep..and your too sweet for that" kinda drop hints you like him. Tell him hes sweet and he desserves the best and how any girl to have him is the luckiest girl in the world. That will loosen things up for you..then soon when yo gather your courage..just tell him! Onine..on the phone..in person..in a letter..whichever works best for you! Im in the process of gathering my courage too..but just think to yourself.."sure its a gamble..but if i dont tell him i`ll never truly know what could have been" he worst that can happen is he'll tell you "i dont see you that way..your just a good friend and i cant see us together" yeah things might be weird for a couple days but hey at least you can go to sleep at night knowing you wont regret never telling him how you feel
