16/F,This guy at my school told my best friend that he still likes me and he didn't know how he could tell me how he felt. He went to my french teacher's concert so he could see me there but I didn't show up and he was upset. So he sent me a message on myspace telling me how he felt. My best friend told me that he was keeping this to himself for three years. Today at the pep rally he wouldn't stop staring at me and his friend kept pointing at me. The thing is that I'm really confused and I feel the same way too. but I'm scared to face him. I seriously don't know why I'm afraid and how can I get over my fear?

Three years is a looong time... So you can be nervous because it's something scary. Someone likes you THAT MUCH and THAT LONG... it's like looking at something so beauitful but fragile (l.o.l. funny counry metaphor, i know) You want to grab down and take it... but what if it breaks? What I'm saying is that when my ex told me he wanted to get back with me I was scared. I loved him... and I didn't think he still loved me until he told me. But once he did I was scared that once I got with him something would happen and that would just go away. That can be why you're scared... But if that's not why then I ask this: Have you ever had a boyfriend? If you haven't then maybe that's why. ...Or maybe you've been hurt in the past. I don't know you so I'm afarid I can't just tell you "this is what you're afarid of..." so I hope you think about what I said. What you should do to over come your fear? (whatever it may be) Well its more than obvious that this boy really really likes you... If you feel the same way just think this: It's scaries to miss out on life than to take a risk. If you and him get in a relationship you will be risking things, becauise there is a possibility it doesn't go well. But he likes you and you KNOW he LIKES you (it's not just a rumor or you THINKING he likes you) and you like him back. If you let it go and he eventuaally moves on that will hurt much longer than if you were to go for it and it didn't work out. But he really REALLY likes you so I think it'll work out. ...Talk to him. Start saying hi. Asking how he is or how is day has been or what his weekend plans or or what his favorite band is. Whatever. It doesn't have to be flirty or anything. Just talk. Then let him do the asking out. [ vilelove's advice column | Ask vilelove A Question ]

You must be glad he likes you back, and since you already know he does, just try your best to face him. Think about how much he must be nervous to talk about this subject too, so just let him know how you feel. I know how it feels to be scared of facing the guy you like, so don't feel like you're the only one. He told you how he feels, so now its your turn. If he doesn't know by now that you like him back too, you should tell him before it's too late. Before you talk to him, take a deep breath and have confidence in yourself to not be nervous in front of him.
