so i like this guy, lets call him cody. he knows i like him but my friend ashley likes him too. well, she asked him out and he said he had to think about it. then today he said he is probably going to go out with her because she actually asked him out and he thinks i hang all over him too much. i dont hang over him at all and my friends agree with me. i talk to him alot but thats because were friends. i dont know if i should ask him out or if i should leave him alone for a while. but if he says yes to ashley, im going to be so sad. i dont know if he likes me because when my friends ask if he does he says he doesnt know, but when i ask him if he does he says yes. im just so confused and i dont know what to do. he invited me to his b-day party on the 21st and if he says yes to her, it will be sooo uncomfortable for me. what should i do???
and another thing..
we are having this thing at our school where you can send people flowers. i was thinking of sending him one, but now i dont know if i should because of what he said about me hanging all over him. should i send him one??

Ignore him and if he is the kind of guy that needs a challenge, he may pursue you. Some guys are really threatened by assertive girls, and the guy usually once to at least THINK that he is in control. Give him space, but go to the party. If he is going to go out with this girl let him and you will be there having fun and mildly flirting with other guys. He will definately notice and miss your attention. Let him miss you for a while!

I'd say to just let things go their way, and just see if he asks her out or not. If he does, you'll be able to know that if you two went out, he wouldn't be having regrets about it, or even worse, cheating. I understand you'd be sad, but you need to let things work out well for both of you. I'd just try to stay the same as you always are. Bringing up the flirting a bit wouldnt hurt, though. Maybe he'd see he likes you?
And I'd say you should send him one of the flowers. It dosent have to be romantic, maybe write an inside joke on a card attached or something and make it look friendly?
Just, what ever you do, be there for him, and be a great friend. Support his decisions, and he'll see that you respect him and care about him.
