im 14/f, and i really need help. There is this boy that I can't get out of my mind. Whenever I think about him my heart beats faster, and I get butterflies in my stomach. When I'm around him I can't stop smiling and I get nervous. His voice sends shivers down my spine and when he gives me a hug my heart soars. When he so much as looks at me I melt inside. he's cute, funny, sensitive, kind, caring.. he's everything.
Two problems though...
1. he has a girlfriend and it tears me up when i think about them or see them together.
2. he's my best friend...
I've tried to get over him... i just can't. What do i do? Should I try and tell him how i feel? Could this be something that will end our friendship?
Demon_hunter answered Sunday February 20 2005, 7:40 pm: i know what you mean. my sit. was a bit differant though(i'm a 14/m and she acually went out w/ me 4 a while). ask him what he thinks of u. that's it. he'll ask you what you mean, and explain your position. if he's your best friend, he'll say something nice after hesitating(what do you expect? he's a guy, your his friend, and your asking him when he has a gf) and then say that he's seeing sum1 else, and then you'll be shot down, then recover, then it'll be over! if he really is your best friend, then he'll still be your friend, and he'll be easier to talk to. trust me, i've done this. and besides; unless you guys REALLY hit it off, this is how it will lay out:
1.you'll both be happy
2.you'll either not make time to see each other, or it will feel akward
3.you'll see each other less and less
4.he'll call you or you'll call him and that's when it'll end
that's how it was for me. go for it if you want, but don't count on it lasting more than a year.
Mexicanchic62820004 answered Sunday February 20 2005, 7:09 pm: I had the same problem. Aright well if he is sensitive and open minded then you should tell him how you feel about him. If when you tell him he starts sayin stuff that sounds really mean then he's not at all worth it. Or if you really don't wanna tell him then just think about what it would be like if you two were to go out...if you've known him for a really long time or feel like you have, then you would realize that it would be really weird if you guys went out! So just to what ever your heart tells you to!
ThugGirl041790 answered Sunday February 20 2005, 6:53 pm: Well you should tell him how you feel..if he's your best friend you should be able to tell him.. best friends understand eachother..and i really doubt it would be the end of ya'll friendship cause you aint do nothin to him..he might feel the same way and then again he might feel awkward hearing that from you..much luv dez [ ThugGirl041790's advice column | Ask ThugGirl041790 A Question ]
PerfectPixie answered Sunday February 20 2005, 6:53 pm: I think you should just sit back and let nature take it's course. You're not going to be able to get over you're friend right away. I don't think you should tell him you like him because as you said, he does have a girlfriend. Telling him might complicate things a bit. I don't think it will ruin your friendship because if he really is your friend, then you liking him shouldn't have too much of an affect on anything. You will only get over him once you find another guy to like. And don't worry, you're only 14, you have your whole life to find a guy who is everything. Your time will come, i promise! I hope i helped!

When I was fourteen (only four years ago) I went through EXACTLY the same thing. I loved this guy, he was the best on earth. After a year, I realized that he didn't like me, and he began to change (his personality). So what I THOUGHT was absolutely love, was just a very huge crush.
My advice is to just stay friends with him, because if he's happy with who he's with, then good for them. If you tell him how you feel about him, it may ruin your friendship, so it's best to just remain friends. [ xsunshinexsmilesx's advice column | Ask xsunshinexsmilesx A Question ]
