A guy likes me, I like him back, but he has a girlfriend
Question Posted Saturday January 28 2006, 7:54 pm
A guy told me he likes me, but he has a girlfriend. I don't think she knows that he likes me because they are still going out. My friends all think I hate him, because at first I actually did until I realized I like him. I don't want to tell them because that would be another problem to deal with because I have bad stuff going on with my friends, and if I told them they would rub it in and probably call me a liar because I used to think he was a whore. If I tell my mom she'll rub it in and tell the whole family. This guy is a year younger and a grade lower than me. His girlfriend and I are 13 and in the same grade and he is only 12. He is kind to me but nice to his girlfriend in a sexual way at times, but she doesn't seem to mind his behavior. I'm not sure what his behavior means, but I like him anyway. I think his girlfriend should know that he is flirting with me and that I am trying not to flirt with him, but I can only control my speech,not what's on my face. I'm too scared to talk to her or him about it, because everyone will be mad. I'm too scared to talk to my friends because I don't know which ones are real. Who should I talk to? Should I deal with it when I've figured things out with my friends? but that could take a year, and events probably won't allow me to wait that long to do something. If I need to talk to him, her or someone else, how do I tell them? What kind of person should I tell? Am I worried for nothing? Is this all really stupid because we're so young?If none of these questions can lead to advice or answers, please just help in whatever way possible.
I think you should tell the guy you like that he needs to be honest with his girlfriend. Make him tell her that he likes you, I mean she'll be more heart broken later on if she doesn't hear about it also people will be mad for not telling her in the first place. And if he doesn't do it you should. Chicks have to stick together. Then once hes single and everyone's over the whole thing tell him how you really feel which should be 1-2 weeks after.
If you really need someone to talk to tell a really close friend and tell them how serious this whole thing is to you. One who is very understanding and mature will sure not rub it in to you. Or try family, maybe not your mother but you could try a cousin or sibling. Or you could get a diary, at least that way you won't get given any criticism about what you're doing.
Lastly remember you are still young and have your whole life a head of you. You have PLENTY of time for love in life. For now I suggest having a good time cruising with friends because most boys especially around your age are quite sleazy. You could even end up heart broken and have much regret for the rest of your life.
