More than 'just friends?'


Question Posted Sunday May 18 2008, 10:43 pm

There is this boy that goes to my school and he always flirts with me. I am in the 7th grade, and I've liked him since 4th grade. Well; Friday night I finally told him I liked him. MAJOR MISTAKE--> he has a girlfriend. He DOESN'T care about his girlfriend, the only reason he is going out with her is because the first time he dumped her, she wouldn't quit crying and he felt bad. But we were hanging out the whole time at the dance on Friday, and he was MAJORLY flirting. Well, school is out this Thursday, and I'm REALLY IN LOVE with him, what do I do?!

Hi, thanks for your question.
Well, that boy is making a big mistake and is just making it harder to break up with his current girlfriend. Even if she cried (which is to be expected), he shouldn't have got back together with her. He obviously wanted to dump her for a reason and should have been stronger..
Or so he says..?
You have to think of all the possibilities here. He may have been lying about not liking/caring for his girlfriend so it gave him an excuse to be flirty with you whilst she wasn't there.
Or, maybe he WAS being truthful.
The thing is, you've t old him how you feel. So, you've pretty much left whatever happens in his hands. He's in some crappy relationship with someone he doesn't want to be with and he knows you like him. If he liked you back, you think he'd do what anyone would do and be with you..
What to do?
Well, if I were in your position, I'd talk to him once more. I know it can be nerve racking, but as school is out, it's best to get it off your chest now. Ask him if he has any feelings for you. What to do and say afterwards will become clear when you've asked him that vital question.
If he says he likes you but still ends up in a relationship with his girl, then don't hold on and wait for him - it just proves he's messing you around.

Heyy! I totally get what you're going through. It seems like this guy might have feeling for you but its tricky because he has a girlfriend.

If you feel this strongly about him, you may want to talk to him and tell him that you really like him and because school is getting out soon, this is your chance to do something! The only problem is that he may still have feelings for his girlfriend and it would be bad to mess things up between them if he does.

I was also curious about his answer. You said you told him that you liked him, but what did he say to you?

If he seemed okay with it, i would tell him how you feel. But don't come on too strong, just let him know you really like him and would like to go out with him ONLY if he doesn't like his girlfriend anymore. If he does (still like her), you should just say its okay to just be friends, if you really like him you wouldn't wanna come between him and the girl he likes, even if its painful =/

I really hope things work out with you guys and that i helped. Lemme know how it works out! Good luck =]

You don't love this guy, you lust for him, there is a difference. Put this on the back burner and don't tell him nothing about dropping this girl. Part of being an adult, (and that is what you are trying to learn to be), is knowing how to handle your emotions. This boy needs to learn how to handle this and he is not on here asking for advice, you are.

Drop this and get out, you don't need the drama. Tell him you made a mistake and you no longer want to get involved with him right now.

its not right for him to lead on this said "girlfriend" of his. if hes always flirting with you, maybe he likes you back. :)

just explain to him that he doesnt need to deal with the water works from chickie-poo. he just needs to tell her that he doesnt wanna see her upset, but he cant have a strong relationship with someone he doesnt feel the same way for.

you cant start dating him until he gets rid of girlie, and then you and him can talk. for now, there is nothing wrong with being good friends.

take care!
