GoodAdviceGiver05 answered Sunday August 21 2005, 7:39 pm: Well I think you should tell your family but get to know the postitive things about the guy you like and when you tell your parents just say that he is a different race but hes a really nice guy and tell them some positive things about him to your parents. See if it makes a difference. Hope the advice works!! [ GoodAdviceGiver05's advice column | Ask GoodAdviceGiver05 A Question ]

broadzilla answered Sunday August 21 2005, 6:11 am: See if you can take him on a "date" - it doesn't have to be a "real" date, just go out somewhere with him and see what happens. You won't embarass yourself if you remember that you like him, but you're also close friends. I wouldn't worry about your parents until you know exactly how he feels about you, and if you're going to be bf/gf. Then you should probably tell them what you like about him and see if you can do something all together, so they get a chance to like him. (If I were in your shoed, I might not mention anything about his race at all - if they start liking him beforehand, then it's hard for them to go back on that later, but I don't know if that's a really good idea.)

ChOcOLoLo answered Sunday August 21 2005, 1:12 am: Hey there! Hoo...this is a difficult situation. My family also feels the same way... Um, I suggest that you tell your family not right away, but some time into the relationship, and if they ask you why you're with him, you can explain to him why you like him, the qualities that he has that makes him such a great guy. If they don't agree to it the first time you are explaining to them, you can allow them to meet each other, like by bringing him to dinner and they will see and get to know him for themselves. I really hope it works out! And, just be yourself around the guy. If he can accept you for you, then that is a really great guy, and he is there to stay! Take care...

vilelove answered Sunday August 21 2005, 12:03 am: Hi. ....Well it depends... when a guy takes so much interest in a girl it usually means he's interested in her. Unless he's like that with a lot of girls, in which case he's probably a nice guy being friendly. A good way of finding out if he likes you is the classic "getting a friend to ask for you" method. A lot of times guys are honest about it and just say "yes". But if he doesn't answer either "yes" or "no" maybe you should get a friend to tell him that you like him and asked your friend to tell him for you. That way he'll either say "really? I like her too! I'll ask her out!" but if he says "no, I don't like her that way" you can just deny the whole thing. l. o. l. But I really think he likes you since he has so much interest in you. (p.s. you sound like a cool person so don't think you're not good enough for him. If you really weren't good enough for him he wouldn't spend his time getting to know you. But he does.) Now, if you guys DO get in a relationship I don't see why you should tell your family right away (unless you usually do when you get a boyfriend). But if it starts getting serious (like if you guys want to meet each other's families) or if you guys go out after school or on the weekend than I would suggest telling them a little bit in advance before you went on the date with him. Well my best wishes!! [ vilelove's advice column | Ask vilelove A Question ]
