Well Im in 8th grade and hes in 6th grade. Im 13. Hes 12. He really cute. Well last night was our last school dance. I thought i should ask him to dance because he wont be at the dances next year because ill be at the high school and i would have to wait for 2 years. Well one of my friends boyfriend is his friend. So my friends ask him to ask the guy i like if he would dance with me. He said yeah and he asked me. He asked if i had a boyfriend and why i didnt have one and stuff like that. Then he asked me out and i said yeah. But now i dont know if he actually likes me or if he felt sorry for me. WHAT DO U GUYS AND GIRLS THINK?
Heres another thing. Im not that good with boys...as boyfriends....i can talk to guys who are my friends easliy but im shy around my boyfriends....usually he has to start a conversation because i dont know what to say...what should i do?

Yes, there is always that possibility that a guy could date you based on suspicious motives, however, in this case, with the whole pity assumption, I'd say you're being paranoid.
Good luck!
And as a side note, if you're having trouble talking to this guy, try to talk to him as though you were talking to a friend. After all, friend and girlfriend/boyfriend conversations are usually not that different, if we take away the commitment, the attraction, and such. Try just saying anything at first instead of worrying too much about saying the "right" thing. Try to relax (even though it may be hard) and bring up topics that might relate to both of your lives. You know, school, the dance, friends you have in common. Have fun! [ junebug93's advice column | Ask junebug93 A Question ]

was happy that you did. Seems you talked
ok during that dance! You'll do fine.
It won't take long before you're talking
like old friends. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

So I think he does really like you.
Try to be less shy around him because it will be awkward if he keeps having to start off a conversation.
Just act like you do when you talk to your guy friends, you will start to feel more comfortable and more confident around him as the relationship goes on
