sorry if this is really long! ok so im 14 and going to be a freshman in high school. i've liked this one kid for a while, and the past week i thought i finally had a chance. we were at a party and hung out and danced together the entire night. when i had to leave he got said and told me he didnt want me to leave and hugged me. but theres this other girl that he likes, and she likes him too. they were at a different party, and hooked up. but this girl is going to sleep away camp for 6 weeks tomorrow. all my friends are saying he will get over her and start to like me, but i cant bring myself to believe them. he even sends me text messages that talk about how much fun he had at the party with me and how mad he was when i had to leave. all the signs are there, but he likes another girl. i need advice from someone that isn't my friend because sometimes they can say things to just be nice. so like- what do i do!? wait and see what happens this summer, or just get over him!?

It seems to me like this guy really does like you. If he doesn't, then he's putting on a pretty good show. But dont' worry about that, I don't think that's the case here.
If I were you, I'd just wait it out and see what happens- just go with the flow. I have a feeling the hook up with the other girl was maybe just a spur-of-the-moment thing. And I doubt he'll keep liking her if he can't be with her for over a month.

One question you have to ask is this: is he a player? If he were to start to date you, do you think he'd pursue her again when she gets back from camp? That's a big question, and it's very important. If you don't know him very well, it's kind of an impossible question to ask. Do you know why he broke up with his past girlfriends?
As for your question, if you really like him, I'd say you should pursue him. What can it hurt? Just play it cool and hang out with him some more to feel him out. Flirt with him, let him know you're interested. If he becomes MORE interested in you than this other girl, her absence could definitely make the thought of her disappear and all of his attention will be on you.
You're only 14, so just have fun with it. Don't get too involved too quickly, because that's how people get hurt. Just don't make it out to be more than what it is.
