Question Posted Saturday October 14 2006, 4:32 pm

I'm going camping next weekend, and my brothers best friend is coming home from college for a visit as well. Well i've always had quite a crush on him, and I've missed him a lot over the time he's been at college, and i'm just wondering... should I tell him how I feel? I'm pretty sure he knows I like him, and everybody in my family thinks he likes me, but I don't know. I'm 14 by the way, and he's 18. I don't want to hear about the age difference thing, just about if I should tell him how I feel, and how.

I'm with younggrandma on this one -- I had lots of crushes on older guys. They were more mature, and even looking back so was I compared to my peers. And man! -- I thought my heart was going to break if I could not be with them. In my teens I had at least three crushes on olde guys.

One guy lived who lived right next door, and was really cute and had a nice car and pretty girlfriends going in and out all the time. And I just dreamed of the day that he would notice me, well ... it took him about two years and he finally did! I was 16 then, he about 20, and it was like a dream come true -- Until ... he tried to makeout with me the first time we really talked, and even after all that dreaming, I realized I was not ready and he did love me, or even really know me -- he was just going to take advantage of my "crush." I did not let him, I left, and that ended the crush.

I recommend waiting too -- if he does respond in the way you dream, it will almost definitely lead to sex. It is the physical aspect of way we are made. For one, if that happens he could land in jail and for two, when in comes to serious or long-term dating, right now he's probably going to date someone in his own peer group (in college). Either way, you'll be sitting there with your heart in your hands, because you gave a part of you that you can never take back.

Hang on a few years and "wow" him when you are both adults, it's not as far away as you think. If the feeling is still there, and he bites, you will have some wonderful stories to tell of your secret crushes. Keep a diary, it will help you think it through.

Good Luck!

age is just a number.
if you feel like you cant hide that you like him anymore,then go ahead and tell him.
but i would make sure that he likes you back first or else it could make your relationship very awkward.
to make sure he does,spend some extra time with him.
if he seems to be enjoying it,he could like you.
but even if he doesnt,he has to like you enough as a friend to be able to hang out like that.
so basically what im trying to say is that if you feel like you need to tell him,then tell him.whether it be to see if he likes you back,or just so he can know.
if you feel like your not ready,then dont.
its all your choice.
but if you are gonna,you could do something cute like write him a note telling him how you feel.
good luck & hope i helped.=D

Well if he likes you and hes fine with the age difference and you are too then go for it. Whatever happens its your choice. If your not comfortable with it then don't do it. if you want to and he does then im sure you can take it from there. good luck and have fun on your camping trip.

You guys seem like you guys like each other. The best thing is to just tell him how you feel because if you don't it will eat you up inside and you will just wonder what would have happened if I would have told him I liked him. You will feel so much better if you tell him.

I don't think you should say anything.

If you want a reason I have to mention the age thing. To an 18 year old you are what used to be called "jail bait". Don't know if that is still used but, he could not have an intimate relationship with you for another 2 years at least. I don't think he will go for that. So if you say anything now you will just be hurt and possibly embarrassed(depending upon how mature he is).

Just have a good time with him for now and if he is still available when you turn 16 see how you feel. :)
