ZMy latest boy troubles. I've never had a boyfriend, and I'm beginning to believe that it's all my fault, all the time.
But another part of me wonders why guys don't ever come after me? Why am I always the one who has to make the first step forward?
I liked a guy, and he found out from a friend of mine. We sort of talked about it over text (this was on Sunday), in which he made some vague comments about how weird it was to find out "stuff" like that. That was about it.
The next day, when I saw him at first, he smiled at me, and said "hey". But that didn't last long, because I saw him a lot for the rest of the day, and it was kind of awkward.
Today, maybe it's just my imagination, but I swear he was staring at me. We were playing a buzzer game in class, I was up, and he was in the audience. After a while of losing horribly, I was just like "Anyone, take my place." and I went back down in the audience. As soon as I get up, he moves too. Not next to me or anything, but he moves. This happened a couple of times.
What I should do is text him and say "Why are things still weird between us? What is going on?"
I don't want to screw this up, but I don't know what to do. I don't know if he likes me, I don't know what he thinks, and there is only 5 more days I will see him (10 more days of school left).

You have 5 days to get out everything you want to get out so you have to decide which is more important to you...a)making sure he knows how you feel inspite of what he is feeling or b)Fear of rejection. It's a common problem (especially in girls). We do NOT like to hear no and because of this we miss out on some great opportunities. Look at it this way. Things are awkward now, right? If so then why not just come out and tell him how you feel. This way worse case scenario, things are awkward (so nothing changes) and best case scenario, you find out he feels the way you do. Hearing the word no is not easy, but I promise you that it is easier to get over when you hear "no" than it is constantly wondering "what if". I say go ahead. Put yourself out there. You win some, you lose some and once you realize this your life will be sooo much better. Hope I could help and I wish you the best of luck!!!!
