It's natural-give him time to "grieve" a little. In no time, he will get over it, too.
Just show him that you're always there for him. Make him smile a lot. Make him laugh a lot. I know it's a bit cheesy but this IS effective, I'm telling you. Make him feel that even without her, he can still be happy--with you.
clarayow answered Friday July 28 2006, 12:52 am: Hang around more with him. Don't "talk to him alot online", talk to him alot face to face. That way he'll definitely notice your presence and your concern for him.
Guys will start noticing and remembering you when you start to show [[genuine]] care and concern for them. Just dun be a fake though.
Show him your personality. If you're fun and crazy, show it. I wont say "just be yourself" bcoz you tend to be a different person with different people. Am I right? And I dun even know wat the heck it means to just be myself. I dun even know wat's myself because i behave diffently to different people. Anyways, the right thing for me to say, is to stay true to yourself and dun talk or do actions that you're uncomfortable with when you're around him. Simple. NO crap bout being yourself. Haha.
LM answered Thursday July 27 2006, 10:37 pm: Guys are pretty stupid. At least when it comes to girls. If oyu want him to know, pretty much the only way to let him know is to straight out tell him. It may be difficult, but jsut take a deep breath and go for it. You have nothing to lose! If he doesn't feel the same way, wait about three days, and everything will be back to normal, like it never even happened.
If you don't say anything and never do anything about it, you'll only kick yourself later for not taking that chance. So go for it. Life shouldn't be filled with regrets.
