Hi, first off I am a girl in fact, and I just turned 16 2 weeks ago.
So now I have that out of the way, I will share my dilemma, mind you it may get bit long because once I start, sometimes I forget the story is getting long.
Well it all started about a month or two ago when I saw this guy, lets call him Bill.
I help out my mom watch this booth during weekends, and that's where I first met Bill.
I had noticed that new shop just came in across from my mom's shop and I had noticed it was this middle aged looking women and this really cute guy, which happened to be Bill.
I was so glad because he seemed like he was around my age and really cute. Because there used to be some weird old guy working there.
But me being very shy, I'm not shy at all in other situation because I can just go talk to random person off the street, except for when it comes to guys that I think is cute. So I couldn't bring myself to say hi, so all day I was just watching him, and it seemed like he was kind of watching me as well.
So almost at the end of the day, I asked my mom if I could go look at what he was selling, and she said I could so I went over there and we somehow started to talk and I found out that he is 16 years old as well. (although i was 15 then)
He was real friendly and nice and again, cute. Then we started to talk and talk more, and even though we don't really have much in common, we seem to talk to each other really well. For example, when I gave him my phone number, because my friend suggested I should, he told me me wasn't good at talking on the phone and I was glad because I wasn't neither.(and he gave me his number as well) But for some reason when we are talking on the phone, we seem to talk really well. There isn't any awkward silent moments. (He called me on Christmas and I just called him last night.)
Then the lady working in front of me told me that he kept looking at me even though there were these pretty girls over at his shop.
Also there was 2 little kids that came by for one weekend, and they kept telling me that he likes me but he's too shy to ask me out.
And as long as this story might be, I am not even half way telling, but I will stop now because I think I got my point acrossed.
So what do I do? tell him I like him? because I am not sure about anything.
Also he might be just really friendly type, and for the fact that he has lot of chick friends.
Additional info, added Friday December 29 2006, 7:02 pm: well he kinda said he liked me but i dont know if he meant it like that... as in he likes me more than a friend...
it kinda went like him saying...
You can put me on hold for 45 minutes because I like you...
My advice is to tell him how you feel, and see if he feels the same way. From what you've said, it seems like he does. And even if it turns out he doesn't, it's always better to know. Go for it--if you never say anything, you could miss out on the relationship of your life simply because you were too scared. [ WiseOldUnicorn's advice column | Ask WiseOldUnicorn A Question ]

Haha, he seems to really like you and there is no rule stating that a guy has to ask a chick out. Don't feel intiminated by his chick friends and the amount of chick friends he has. Call him up and casually ask if he wants to go see a movie with you (personally, I'd choose a scary one so you can pretend you're scared and hold onto him blah bah XD) or just go somewhere like go bowling or to the park or whatever. And if he says yes, yay!!! And if there's a school dance at your pplace, ask him if he wants to come. Either cases if he says no, just say "Well I guess i need to find someone to come with me because I don't want to go alone" nonchalantly and jokingly. Good luck!

runawayxlove answered Friday December 29 2006, 6:42 pm: hey, well it seems to me like you two have a good thing going on. why would you want to just throw away all those good feelings like that? when your talking on the phone ease your way into asking him if he wants to do something with you over the weekend or whenever. say something like "what are you doing on friday?". then say "oh, well if your not doing anything i was wondering if maybe you wanted to go get lunch with me?". of course you can change up the day and what your doing. when you do the activity you set up let him know how you feel. say something like "bill, i really like you a lot and i just wanted to let you know how i feel". let him talk and hear his side of the story. hopefully you guys will make a good connection and get something good out of this. good luck =].

xXxPorschexXx answered Friday December 29 2006, 6:29 pm: Well i personally think you should tell him because you seem to have something between you two and it would be a shame to just dismiss it. It really does sound that he likes you. So if you just bring it up casually in a conversation preferably face to face or if you find it easier then call him and bring it up in one of them conversations. But be sure not to pressurise him becuase it could really put him off! But go for it as you would be suprised how easy it may turn out to be once you get started. good luck
hope it helps xox Porsche [ xXxPorschexXx's advice column | Ask xXxPorschexXx A Question ]
