boyfriend


Question Posted Thursday September 20 2007, 4:37 pm

hey im a freshman in highschool and i've decided i really want a boyfriend. there are a few boys i like or that im interested in who i think i could have the potential of us going out (knock on wood) i was just wondering how could i tell them i like them without freaking them out? i mean if i told them i liked them a lot in front of their face out of the blue that would probably catch them off gaurd and scare them off. do you have any flirting tricks that give them signs that i like them?

thanks. guys also please answer this question to from a guy's point of view!

You have to first develop a friendship with the guy. Talk to him online, say hi in the hallways, etc. Do you have school dances? Because if you do, ask him to dance with you. This will clue him on. Ask him to the movies, or to the beach or pond. When he is in the hallways, wrap your arms around the back of him and say "guess who". Just playful stuff like that.

Good luck.

If you go up to a guy you like and say "hi (person) I really like you" then they will most definitely freak out. It puts pressure on them to say something, or do something, and they may not like you back. However, if you have shown other, subtler, more physical signs that you like them, and they have reciprocated to show that they like you, confessing that you have feelings for that said person isn't freaky because you are just acknowledging what already exists.

If you like a guy, you have to let them know in a way that doesn't put that much pressure on them, and in a way where they can get out of the situation if they don't like it/ there is no pressure. Instead of telling them anything outright, try flirting with them subtly. Tease them while smiling and tilting your head to one side. Playfully take something of theirs. And then judge their reaction. If they naturally get into it and tease you back, and both of you start leaning closer together, then voila, you have established something without making it awkward or facing any sort of rejection. And if they aren't so into you, you can find out and they have the option of walking away from the situation if they want to.

Saying you like someone can be a big deal and guys might not know how to handle it. It's almost easier to ask a guy out because then he can say yes or not and judge how he really feels about you once he has spent time with you.

Although I think all of us have the freak out commitmentophobe part of us that should not be provoked, eventually you should really tell a guy how you feel, but be sure he's ready for it when you do.
