the.incredible.mable answered Wednesday April 26 2006, 5:44 pm: If you really like this boy, don't worry about what you piers think. If you live your whole life doing what you think will make you "look good" then you will never have fun. In my day (quite a while ago) it was considered "un-ladylike" for a girl to approach a boy about dances/dates. Now I think that it is fine. One of my friends really liked a bouy and went months and months without telling him, because she didn't think it proper. Nowadays I think that girls should take more power in situations. Being direct is very affective. Just tell the boy how you feel and he will be thrilled.
Love

ii_llove_yuu answered Wednesday April 26 2006, 4:56 pm: Well, whether he is geeky or not does not matter. Social status is so not important if you really like him. I would say, since you two are close, ask him who he likes. If he replies no one, chances are there is someone he doesn't want you to know, so it may be you. If you are embaressed to tell him you like him, yout may want to have a friend do it for you. What you also may want to consider is how important is your friendship? Would you rather keep the relationship you have now or have an intimate relationship with him? I know from experience when you go out with your good friends, everything does not go back to normal when you break up. If you really like him, I definitely say you go for it. If not .. you may want to reconsider. But the best thing I can suggest is find out who he likes or have a friend tell him. I hope this helps .. : [ ii_llove_yuu's advice column | Ask ii_llove_yuu A Question ]
NinjaNeer answered Tuesday April 25 2006, 11:08 pm: The geeky ones are always the last to figure out that a girl likes them. This means you have to be a little less than subtle... let him know that you're interested in him!
Ask him to the semi, that's a good way to start...
And it's great that you don't discount him because he's a geek... because I'll let you in on a little secret: the geeky ones make the best boyfriends! They're more sweet and they realize what a treasure girls are, so they treat you better. [ NinjaNeer's advice column | Ask NinjaNeer A Question ]
Altruistic answered Tuesday April 25 2006, 10:47 pm: well first off, your idea 'just go up to him and be like i like you' actually isn't that bad of an idea, lol. guys sometimes need things to be put obviously for them to get it. You could do that.... only... in a more subtle way? explain that even though you two are really great friends, you want to take the relationship further or something? Or do something sweet and like leave notes or something... but its definitely better to tell him in person than online/phone or through other people. And ask him to the semi...? it's not weird for a girl to ask a guy to a dance. i asked one of my guy friends to homecoming before, lol [ Altruistic's advice column | Ask Altruistic A Question ]
