Okay, I need some advice, and this might be pretty long because of all the explaining I have to do about this... but anyways, at the beginning of the school year I changed schools. I started liking this guy in my Biology class. I didn't know his name because I had only been there three or four days. Then one day one of my new friends told me his friend liked me. I was all like "Okay, whatever." Well, about a few weeks later, I realized the guy that liked me was the guy I liked. The guy & I weren't really friends, and we only had a short conversation probably twice, but yet I always caught him looking at me or something and he would always stand by me if we were waiting outside the classroom for the teacher. Well, now we're in a new semester and we have History together. We've talked a few more times but not much. And I also overheard my friend talking to him about me and telling him I don't have a boyfriend and he should go out with me (but she doesn't know I like him.) I also still catch him looking at me, but he hangs around with this other girl that he seems to like. Like today, for instance, he would look at me alot during the first half of the period, then the second half he went over and sat beside the other girl and was talking to her. And I'm not really the kind of girl that will tell a guy I like him up front or anything. But I'm really confused by this - does he like me, or not? Some advice/help would be appreciated. =) Thanks. Oh, by the way, I'm 15 years old & female.

It sounds like he's a fairly cool kid and not laying it on thick and heavy, so my advice is to thank your lucky stars and ask a mutual friend (if you have one; if not just get closer to one of his female friends, perhaps even the other one he talks to - don't consider her "competition" yet; after all, it's not like he's got his tongue in either of your mouthes or anything) to arrange a situation in which the two of you, with some other people, are hanging out. You can find out more about him, what he's like outside of school, and perhaps do some flirting. If things go poorly, just step out. If things go well, then you can pare down the group until it's just the two of you going out and ta da - you've just made a smooth transition into dating :) [ not_the_smart_mark's advice column | Ask not_the_smart_mark A Question ]
