I've always had this thing for this guy, we'll call him Q. q was my BEST friend in 5th grade, but after that he didn't really give a shit about me in 6th and barely in 7th. And in 5th grade, he asked me out and he really liked me as did I but I don't know, I never really answered, and I wish I had said yes. I'm in 8th now, and he's in all my core classes, and I really feel like I'm falling hard. I feel sad now that it's break for me and I won't get to see him for a while, and I'm not allowed to hang with guys (or go out with them) but for him I'd definitely sneak a relationship because I'm liking him more than I've ever liked him before. But there's a problem.
I CANNOT ask him out, forget about it.
You see, Q is a total conformist, always with his friends, who are always obsessed with this girl, we'll call her D. D just recently left this group of used to be popular, slut/bitches, and joined my group of friends, and me and her are like absolutely tight. She's in all my classes too, and Q is always grabbing her and stuff, and she experiences this alot because
a) she's an idiot
b) shes done things with a 9th grader who takes advantage of her
c) shes so skinny and pretty and has awesome hair
Whenever Q obsesses over her, I get really jealous because she's so like, popular, and I really like Q and it makes me sad to think about it because he's chatted up a lot of girls online which makes him a total operator, except I really feel like he might like me, and he hasn't had a girlfriend since 6th grade, so I don't think he would take advantage of me because every guy knows I'm not an idiot. But what can I do to get him to notice me? I guess I have an okay body, but I'm trying to lose weight. What makes guys notice girls? Most people think I'm funny, I have a lot of friends, I'm outgoing, I'm relaxed, I don't get mad easily, I know how to have fun, I have a lot of friends, I'm tall, and have brown eyes and brown hair. I don't know what else to do because I always feel like we both know we like each other but he's probably too much of a conformist to ask me out. Everyone says I have a great personality that's hard to find in my town and I just don't know what to do! Should I work harder on getting a better body? I'm not the crazy flirting type. But what will catch his eye?
Some guys (and I know this because I have many guy friends...and they tell me things like this, for some odd reason...XD) just don't like certain girls, and sometimes they don't like it when a girl tries too hard...but hey.
What you can do to get his eye (though I wouldn't try...sometimes that helps XD) is just say hey to him during your classes that you have together, and ask how his break was and what not. Just be cool, you know? Be yourself, if he doesn't like you, then screw him...
If you want to lose weight...to be healthy, then just drink a lot of water, eat healthy, eat fruits and veggies and maybe run 20 mins a day...oh! Pick up a 17 and Cosmo Girl! mag =D I can't remember which one, but one of them has a really good work out thing...and you can just turn on your music one day and just dance around, get your heart beat up. All that
Hope I helped, and I wish you luck! Remember, if a guy can't see how cool you are, then he just isn't worth it...

Well, this is fine. Guys will be guys, and guys like pretty girls. The first thing that attracts a guy is prettiness. (Second thing is personality, even though some will tell you otherwise. Since you guys already have history together, you don't need to worry about personality.) You probably are really pretty! Most girls ARE pretty, even though some more than others.
Get your hair done in a nice cut that compliments your face. Pick out some basic make-up. I suggest some black liner, clear gloss and some blush and mascara. That's all you need. Dress to impress! Be classy, but stylish at the same time. You are pretty, just you need to have that extra va-va-voom.
Guys WILL NOT only be interested in bimbos. We like to think the worst of guys, but in reality, it's the way a girl can think for herself that really spikes a true relationship.
After you feel that you are really confident, you should have a one-on-one talk to tell him that you still have feelings for him from the fifth grade. He'll have noticed how you've become prettier and such and will definitely feel attracted to you too. Note that he won't be full fledged in love, but you have to start somewhere! It will be even easier since you guys know each other as friends already.
