If you like this boy and you believe he likes you, then at the least have a conversation about it. If he tells you he is not interested, then that's really the worst that can happen. Eric is two years away and you have no idea where emotionally you will be in two years. If this guy makes you feel out of control and that whatever it is feels bigger than you, you should go for it. One thing to remember though. I know these days girls don't wait for the guy to pursue them anymore, but if you let him he will always pursue you. If you don't however, you will always be chasing him. Do you want that? [ jmimms's advice column | Ask jmimms A Question ]

okay im not trying to sound like a kill-joy but be careful with the whole brother friends situation, bc i actually like one of my brothers friends and i thought he liked me backk and it was the same thing everytime he was over he'd alwayssss! come talk to me and he'd come in my bed with me at night and watch movies (nothing badd just chill and watch movies) and we were talking one night and i sorta admited i had a thing for him and hes like oh sorry i gave you the wrong impression i just thought of you as my little sister and stuff i never thought of you as moree. howeever maybe you situation is diffferent. im just lettign you no be careful
butt to answer you questiong i thinkk youu should go for him now, 2 years is a longggg time and i think you should just livee for today. and eric will still be there in 2 years if it doesnt work out between you and josh. [ ohhsnapp05's advice column | Ask ohhsnapp05 A Question ]
DepthofHeart answered Wednesday August 8 2007, 9:18 pm: Two years is a long time to wait for someone, your feelings for Eric can change in two years and most likely will.
I would go for Josh, make the first move and let him know you're interested. Honestly, what could your brother do about it? If you really like him then go for it, your brother will get over it eventually.
Maybe you could sit down and talk to him about it, and tell him how you feel about his friend... and even if he doesn't like you two dating, you don't need his permission. He just might feel better if you actually talk to him about it and don't just start dating his friend.
Josh might be reluctant about dating you because of your brother, but if he really like you then he won't listen to him. Let him know that he won't have to chose between you two, and don't let it come down to that.
yourrtrustyhelpline answered Wednesday August 8 2007, 9:08 pm: just go for josh ! who cares what your brother says. live your life the way you want to, not the way others expect you to. take your chances now. waiting two years for one guy with no guarantee is stupid. go for josh, and once eric comes back, well, you'll have to wait and see what happens then.
