Question Posted Wednesday December 28 2005, 5:58 pm
i'm a 19 year old guy. i figured i'd start with that as well most other people start their questions that way too. she's an 18 year old girl. nothing wrong there so far right? well she has a thing for a friend of mine. but my friend doesn't like her at all. problem is i've developed some feelings for her in this time. we've gone out on a couple of dates hung out nothing serious really. but last night she feels it necessary to tell me she likes him. i knew this, it didn't stop me, and i didn't care that she liked him cause i knew how he felt towards her. now this was in a message she left me and since then has said nothing to me. now here comes m question:
why would she say this to me in the first place? what could her motive have been? is it to tell me she doesn't like me and wants me to back off? (if so that's fine) or is it to tell me to leave her alone altogether? or is it some weird way of sayin g she's starting to like me? or is it just some random thing to say that is totally meaningless and going nowhere? she told me she knows he doesn't feel that way for her, and that she knows he's got his own girl issues now and yet she still likes him. i assume she wants me to ease up and let her be, but i don't know i can't read a girl's mind and if i could i doubt i'd want to (too much crap about makeup and gross things) but whatever the case what do you folks think is the meaning of all this?

All of your assumptions are good, but the only way that you can really know is by talking to her about it. Just explain to her how you feel and ask her if she feels anything for you. If she doesn't feel that way, its ok. Just tell her that you still want to be friends. After a while of being closer friends, maybe the two of you will develop something special? I hope I helped.

It could mean she really likes this other guy(like she said), she really likes you(to see if you'll get jealous), she just randomly said(kind of like when you say it's gunna rain later), she wants you to back off(the ugly duckling of the group) or it could mean something else all together. I wish I could help you, but I really don't know man. [ kevin1986's advice column | Ask kevin1986 A Question ]
