my best friend is a guy and this guy is amazing. he knows when to be funny and when to be serious, he knows when to give you the advice you want to hear and the advice you need to hear and most of all he knows how to treat a woman...and he's got money and a smokin' body but that truly doesn't matter to me. he'll pick on me but then he holds my hand and says "i love you, im just joking" one day i was at his house and it was just me and him and i was going to tell him i liked him but just before i said it he told me he liked this other girl so i never told him i liked him. after a month of him and this girl fighting they're finally going out and of course he asked her in a way that is normally only in the movies. so now he has a girlfriend and they're so cute together i would hate to break them up, but they do fight. anyway, the other day me and this guy were at a soccer game. we were sitting on the bleachers, him on a bench lower than me. a girl was sitting next to me but she got up and left and he came and sat so close to me that our bodies were pressed together and there was at least 4 feet of space where he could have sat. of course i loved this and at first i moved over about an inch because people were looking at us weird because they know he has a girlfriend. he moved closer to me again. 5 minutes later i had to leave so he gave me a hug and said goodbye. i have back to back classes with him so i see him a lot during my school day. i really really like him and my mom absolutely adores him. i know i can't get over him. i've already tried about 3 times and everytime i try to get over him i just like him more. i don't know what to do! sorry it was long, i felt like i had to tell the WHOLE story. please please help me

Michele answered Monday September 10 2007, 10:40 am: HOney, it sounds to me like he really really likes you, and maybe he is not sure about how you feel. I say go for it. Just let him know that you would be interested when and if he is ever single again. And be sure to be clear about that. He may just be looking for one-night-stands, or friends with benefits, and I don't think that is what you want. I get the impression that you would like to be in a committed long term relationship. So be sure to find out if that is what he wants. Once you do let him know, you should wait until he is completely broken it off with the other girl, not just in the middle of a fight with her. I know you want love, but respect is very important too. So hold out for love and respect, and he will think more of you for it. If that is NOT what he is interested it, then keep he at arms lenght, love him if you must, but don't get involved. He will only hurt you, and believe me that can be much worse than what you are going through now. Good luck to you.
