solidadvice4teens answered Thursday March 1 2007, 7:13 pm: I think they do in fact like you. The fact is you are eating with them at lunch every day and hanging out with you there. If they didn't like you they would find some way to squeeze you out and prevent you from eating there.
I would go with the flow and see where things lead here. You might try asking them to the mall or to a movie and see what happens there. Let them know you're looking to be friends by making an effort to include them in your social life.
You'll know where you stand by their response but it looks like you're "in' with them. Just relax and let thing unfold rather than trying to make it all happen at once. When you strive to make things happen rather than let them naturally that's when things get mucked up and you'll turn them off.
Just use my suggestion above about asking them to join you. Also the important thing to know about the "popular girls" or "in crowd" most of them are insecure, followers rather than leaders, not too nice to their friends let alone enimes and more apt to get into trouble because of peer pressure.
Be sure you want "in" with them as being "popular" isn't always great. I encourage you to see what happens and look to make friends with people outside of their circle too and forget all the labels and cliques. I know you'll make friends and lasting ones if you just be yourself and relax and let it unfold.

Also if they ask you to hang out outside of school, or call you. If you are always the one doing the calling, maybe they dont really like you that much.
Keep sitting with them at lunch, becuase just because those things may not be happening now, they may happen soon. Sometimes real relationships take a long time. So if you dont have a bunch of new friends now, thats okay, you will get some eventually.
Hope that answered your question,
love ya,

If they already do what I told you, then they probably like you. Hope I helped! [ juicyloverxo12's advice column | Ask juicyloverxo12 A Question ]
