16/f junior in high school
he's 17 senior
so i like this guy. no i really really really like this guy. he's incredibly smart, amazing body, he's got an adorable face and a wonderful personality. he's rich but still chooses to be responsible and make his own money by waiting tables. but...he smokes pot, a lot of it. he might even sell it too. i have one class with him and we sit at opposite ends of the room. i've talked to him once when we both stayed afterschool for something and we listened to some music together on his ipod. it was the first time i had ever talked to him and i was shaking. i was sweating but i had chills. we talked for maybe five minutes but then we both had to leave. a week later in class i asked for his number. we've been texting ever since. some days we text for only a half hour and other days we text all day long. we've both flirted a little and when i pass him in the halls i see him doing a double take as i pass by. he's all i think about. this is the first guy that i've felt an emotional "click" with. the thing is that im the one always texting him. he never texts me. we're both incredibly shy people so that doesnt really help. now that its spring break he mentioned that we could hang out sometime but he's really busy and going all over the place. i want to make this relationship go somewhere because now i think its been about two weeks of texting and making small talk. i swear this guy is my male equivelant...like the male version of me. we have the same sense of humor and personality it amazing. i dont want to come right out with it and say "hey i like you" because well first of all i dont have the guts to do that and second of all i dont want to be that blunt about it. how can i hint that im intrested in him without being overwhelming???
p.s. thanks for listening to me blab about a hot kid

The thing is, one day he just started talking to me, but I was too shy to do anything about it and, guess what? I lost him in the end cause I never made a move. I learnt my lesson after that. The thing is, if you don't say anything, he'll never know because guys don't pick up on subliminal messages like we do. I know how hard it is to be foward and blunt, but there are some things you can do to pick things up a bit. tell him that you think you should 'hang out' one day. when you're outside of the school environment, it'll be easier to relax. Don't even concentrate about where it's going, JUST HAVE FUN. when the night starts to wind down, you don't have to jump on the guy, just tell him you had a really great time with him and that if he thought the same, you should do it again. P.S. If you give little comments during the night(don't over do it) he'll notice that you're noticing him and it'll leave him thinking a lot of you. Don't be too full on cause you don't want to scare him away. Try to let him lead for a while, you might be surprised. [ teenage_drifter's advice column | Ask teenage_drifter A Question ]
