I live i Nj and im a 13/f. I moved from Austin Tx 3 months ago. In austin over the summer last year, i met this guy who is soooo amazing. i know he liked me alot and i was obsessed with him and i would meet him at the pool every day, but one day we got in a fight because he was like surounded by girls and i was off to the sidelines. he left and didnt come back. thats when i moved. i got enough courage to call him and apologize and we started talking on aim. i have a major crush and i swear i think about him every day but yesterday i found out he was going out with this other girl,and he said i was a good friend!!!! he doesnt realize that for the past two and a half months ive been hinting on aim that he's my major crush and i dont know what to do to get him to realize i like him without actually telling him. what should i do?
-confused

Accept that you've found a guy who considers you a good friend, and then move on and find someone in your own area. Long distance relationships are very difficult, even without all the extra stress you guys have - your age (less money to visit!), the fact that you weren't dating before you left, etc. This guy might've been perfect for you if you were still in Texas, but do you really want to date someone you'll never actually get the chance to see?
No notes passed at school, no hand holding, no anything. On the flip side, it can be a big bonus to have a close guy friend. When you do find a new guy (and you will!), it can be helpful to have a friend that can let you know how guys think. You can bounce ideas off of him, build an even stronger friendship, and possibly benefit a lot more from having him as a friend than a boyfriend.
Of course, if you feel this guy really IS the one for you, you're going to have to come out and say it. With no face-to-face contact, there's no opportunity to hang back and see what happens - good communication is the KEY to long distance things, and at least if he decides he wants to only be friends you won't have to see him in school the next day.
