well lately ive been crushing on this guy named joe. joes a skaterguy and is very popular. so i never really hung out with him a lot. so me and him really got close since like the past 2 wks. on monday, joe sat next to me in ela.. he kept talking to me.
on tuesday, he sat next to me again and he kept cracking me up and making me laugh and he passed notes with me and all this stuff. so his friends fred and mitch were sitting behind us and when i passed him a note and he read it he went to give it back to me and i got it but his friend mitch grabbed the note and read it with fred. so 2 minutes later i heard mitch and fred whispering and fred said \"joe told me over the weekend he does\" so then mitch comes up to me and says, \"arie, joe likes you and he wants to go out with you.\" so then joe jumps up and says\" i dont like arie.\" joe then started blushing. then i was like its fine. and then joe was like, \" dont listen to them i dont like you.\" so then that was it. also in the hallways that day, all his friends were like\" joe, you told her?\" and then one said , \" there she is joe\" and they were looking at me. also i just walked away to get away. and a minute later ( i was gone) my friend told me him and his friend marc were walking and marc was like \"wheres arie? joe has to tell her something.\" and joe was blushing and said \"i dont like her\".
extra info:
*after i heard joe whisper to his friends, yeah that joke was so funny arie said.
*my friend asked him monday ( day before this happened) do you like arie? and he said why are you jealous? ( he doesnt like me friend.)
he probably didnt want you to know that way, and he would have been embarrased enough as it is. :)
I think joe would be better in asking when he is not with his friends, as well as ur friends asking him. He probably wouldnt tell anyone but you.
He sounds like quite a shy person, so just persevere :)
Just take each day as it comes and just ignore his friends as they sound like a teasing lot!! hehe. even though it might be the truth they are telling. :)

Anyway, now that you know that you are not dealing with an expert, I would guess that he does like you. The only thing that is a little strange is how strongly he denies it, but if he was put on the spot it could well be that he is very embarrassed. Either way, my advice would be to talk to him in private- without anyone even knowing you are talking together. That way some of the pressure is off and he can be honest about how he feels.
Murmur621 answered Thursday March 20 2008, 7:36 pm: he probaly likes you!
he just said that out loud because
of his friends and didnt want to be embarrassed
thats what usually can happen [ Murmur621's advice column | Ask Murmur621 A Question ]

I think Joe does like you because if he didn't like
you why would he blush when he said he didn't like
you! Boys always try to be big and tough and never
want to admit it to a girl that they like her !
You should just be yourselve flirt a little
and he will come around if he don't like you
as much as you like him now !
P.s
(don't give up!)
Teza answered Thursday March 20 2008, 3:40 pm: I think that Joe does like you. Guys act like that when they're not sure if the girl likes them back so they deny it. His friends are also embarrassing him and it's making it worse. His friends should stop but they're just trying to help him out. You should talk to Joe and ask him yourself, & if you do like him, tell him and he'll feel better and it'll be easier for him to tell you how he feels. [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
iwantthetruth answered Thursday March 20 2008, 3:24 pm: well i think that he probably does like you
but the reason he keeps saying that he doesnt is because he is a really shy person and his friends are embarrassing him. Plus he doesnt know whether or not you like him back.
Then again his friends could be just making things up as a joke.
I think maybe you should try talking to Joe about it yourself because when there are other people involved it makes everything complicated and you cant tell the truth from the gossip. If you have like myspace or aim or something send him a message and try to talk to him on there that way it doenst have to be in person. or give him a note. i know how complicated this type of thing can be. it happened to me last year with a friend of mine that i liked.
good luck =] [ iwantthetruth's advice column | Ask iwantthetruth A Question ]
