ii_llove_yuu answered Wednesday March 15 2006, 5:51 pm: Well, I totally understand why you're scared. I'm sure it's not just about rejection, but also because he's your best guy friend and you wouldn't want to risk ruining what you already have. What I can suggest is ask a friend to find out if he likes you, but casually. Have one of your friends be like, so it seems like you like (your name). do you? .. see what he says. If you don't want to do that, wait until the dance and see what happens. Maybe he'll make the move and tell you that he likes you, and if not I heard of one other way. I once read somewhere that a way to let someone know you like them without flat out telling them is be like oh I had a dream we were dating. Isn't that weird? See what his reaction is. You can probably tell by his reaction how he feels about you. I hope this helps, and if anything happens at the dance, let me know! Good luck [ ii_llove_yuu's advice column | Ask ii_llove_yuu A Question ]

Just hint around to it and if he doesnt catch on then ask him what he thinks of you to see what he says. And if he comes out and says he likes u then tell him you've liked him for______ (however long you've liked him). Hope this helps!!

Advisor answered Wednesday March 15 2006, 12:00 pm: Well i can see why you would be scared after all he might reject you and that would be very bad for your confidence but look at it like this, life is very short sometimes shorter than you ever expected. Suppose you ask this guy if he likes you and i would think since he is going to this dance with you he likes you. He says yes and then you tell him well i like you too, if he says no he doesnt like you (which i dont think he will) then you say well why am i wasting my time dancing with you and then walk off ha then he looks like the loser. then you go find another attractive guy to dance with or hang out with your friends, and dont worry there is going to be other dances. hope this does something for you [ Advisor's advice column | Ask Advisor A Question ]

Also say after a pause and an innocent and shy look away that ," I just need and want to know if you may possibly feel the same way. I'll understand if you don't, it's just I want to know." BE CASUAL WITH IT.
Even if you don't understand it if he doesn't like you like that, act like it doesn't phase you much. Also say that, " I don't want what I feel to possibly affect our friendship." So he'll know that and possibly won't feel awkward around you in the future. However, honey, as long as you're involved in the game of love- you're going to have to learn how to deal with rejection. I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU ALL THAT IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL. IT'S APART OF THE BAGGAGE OF LOVE. IF HE REJECTS YOU, IT'S OBVIOUSLY NOT MEANT TO BE. HE'S ONLY GIVING YOU MORE THE NEEDED TIME TO FIND "THE ONE." SO DON'T SWEAT IT. I'm not angry or anything and I'm not trying to stress you out. Just, don't worry so much. It'll cause you to get wrinkles. [ Courtney's advice column | Ask Courtney A Question ]
LETSGO answered Wednesday March 15 2006, 7:31 am: just kind of like, ease into it.
give him hints.
dont come right out and tell him.
just be like "you've heard what they're saying right? about us liking eachother. then kind of grin and turn your head away" always works. [ LETSGO's advice column | Ask LETSGO A Question ]
