im 14/f. i have 2 problems. #1 is there's this guy that i really like and im not sure whether or not he has a girlfriend. i heard from one kid that he does and completley the opposite from another. i dont want to ask his or my friends because i know that they will immediatley go and tell him and i don't want that to be the way hat he finds out that i like him and i already asked my close friends and they said that they dont know. I'm also not ready to tell taht i like him yet so what shuold i do? #2 is i only see him for an hour a week at confermation class and that's not long enough. i get really depressed once i have to leave him but i'm too afraid to ask him out because i am petrified of rejection. i'm so confused.

Chicken_flavored_eggs answered Sunday October 16 2005, 6:05 pm: You need to make a choice. You can get up the nerve and talk to him about what he does during the week and hope that he mentions his girlfriend if he has one, or you can just sit and wait being miserable. If you are not ready to tell him that you like him, then you should not say anything. If you are not ready now, then what are you going to do if you have him? Being petrified of rejection is normal, noone wants to be rejected. Unfortunately, that is something everyone must deal with eventually. You can just say it and get it over with and stop torturing yourself while at the same time viewing it as learning experience. You only see him for an hour a week, so I don't see why saying something would be a problem. Its one hour. If you realize that there are 168 hours in a week, one hour isn't that bad. It sounds to me that right now saying something to him will do more harm than good to you. If you don't want to ask him for a date, but still want to hang out with him ask him if he wants to hang out with you and your friends sometime. Tell him that you are trying to make more friends and that he seems like he'd be a good one. Its not gonna kill you, you will recover and go on to date boys and graduate high school. The more you make out of this the harder its gonna be for you. Relax! you'll be fine. [ Chicken_flavored_eggs's advice column | Ask Chicken_flavored_eggs A Question ]
