I'm 14 years old and a girl and i'm having so much trouble deciding whether or not i should tell this guy that i like him. i'm very afraid of rejection and even though i dont like to admit i know that i will care what people think about him and I being together. What should I do?

Don't be afraid of rejection, be afraid of regret. If you don't ever tell him, you will regret it. It would be great if he likes you too, but if not, so what? You're 14 and you have nothing to lose by telling him. If he doesn't like you, then you will know and can move on to someone else. It might be hard at first, but it will be worth it.
2. I understand that you care what people think about him. I'm not sure what else to say, but if they are your friends and they know you like him, they should be nice and not say rude things about it. If they are mean to you about the guy you like, what kind of friends are they? [ HeelsOverHead23's advice column | Ask HeelsOverHead23 A Question ]

What I would do is hang out with him more. Get to know each other a lot, flirt with him CONSTANTLY. Sometimes that's easier than bluntly telling him that you like him. If you catch him flirting with you too, that's when I'd tell him that you like him. ..especially because you're afraid of rejection.

I have been in that very same position on many occasions and it sucks. Ask yourself these questions:
1.Do you like him enough to disregard what other people say?
2.Does he ever hint around about liking you back?
3.Do you guys spend alot of time together?
4.Can you put aside your fears and go for what you really want?
If you answered yes to most of the questions then I say go for the gold girlie! Go find your man and tell him how you feel. Think about it this way, if he does like you then you'll be able to have a relationship and if he doesn't. it will all be forgotten in a matter of weeks. Trust me, I learned the hard way.
