I keep insisting I dont like him.. But I think Im starting


Question Posted Saturday May 3 2008, 12:38 am

Hey! Im f/13

Okay so my friend Alex has been my friend for years, but we've never really gotten close. we've always been called brother and sister because we look so alike, and whenever somebody asks he says "No! Never! That would suck!". And then one day walking home from school one of his friends were like "whose that? girlfriend?" and Im also walking with a friend and so I start blushing, but Alex doesnt decline the fact, just smiles. So one night, he texts me and asks if I want to come play basketball so I go and hang out for a bit, and it might've been just me but I thought he was flirting.. Well the next day he texts me asking if I like him, so I say "maybe" just to see what he said back. He texts back saying the same thing, and ever since he has acted really weird around me. I didn't like him that way when this all started but i think I am starting to. My friends always tease me about liking him & being teased about that is embarrassing so I blush and that really doesnt help. Idk what is happening, but I dont think Im ready for a BF. Id be all nervous around him and knowing him, he would too. I dont know what Im asking, but if you know what's going on with him..

Well, you haven't really been telling anyone that you don't like him, have you? Or are you telling yourself that you don't like him? Either way, the fact that you deny your feelings tells me that you feel quite the opposite.

By denying your feelings for him, they kind of grow till the point that you accept as to what you feel. The more you deny, the bigger they will grow. Kinda sucks but that's what happens.

Most people don't think that they're ready for a boyfriend...actually...come to think of it, you're the first person I've come across whose felt that they're not ready. Most other people whom I've answered aren't ready for a realtionship, yet they're in one already and struggling. So take your time, if you don't think that you're ready, then you aren't.

But before you make any decisions, why don't you surgest that the two of you have a 'trial-date' and see how that goes. That way, you can see whether you're ready or not.

But if you decide not to go through with a realtionship, you need to tell him because he also loves you and I don't what he's like, so I don't know how he will react.

I hope this helped,
triquetra

i'm guessing he probably likes you too. most guys don't ask a girl if she likes him unless they like her too. if you feel like you're not ready for a boyfriend yet.. just continue being friends with him and see where that goes. that's probably a good choice for now because if you guys go out and then break up it might ruin your friendship. you aren't ready for that yet when you're only 13.

YOU GUYS HAVE CRUSHES ON EACH OTHERR!! thats sooo cutee!!! lol. i understand not being ready for a boyfriend. So just get to know him. You can like him but the whole point of being bf and gf are to like kiss and stuff..but you still talk and hang out as friends. if you can't do that then your probally not ready for that level. so just get to know him for him and you'll start to like him more and when it comes time you guys could possibly date but it wouldn't be weird lol yeah..if people say you like him..just be like ehh..idontknow. and just leave it at that. if you need anymore help just drop it in my inbox
