there is this boy who i flirt with a lot and whenever we hang out with a group of friends that group always talks about how we should go out which makes things really awkward and they also dare us to kiss each other but i don't want to do that yet.
how can i handle being put in that situation?

like if someone goes you guys should go out. be like "yah man ask me outt" and smile and laugh.
or if someone says hook up be like "ha yeah kiss me" and like pretend to go in [ AskLisa824's advice column | Ask AskLisa824 A Question ]

Tell them to leave it and you'll tell him you like him in your own time [even if you don't]. Don't get embarassed or too annoyed at them because they will only pressurize you even more and won't leave it alone. So just try to ignore it or laugh it off. Make sure you talk to the boy you like and apoligize for your groups behaviour - that will make it less awkard for you two to talk to eachother. The main thing you have to do is tell the group how you feel, and apologize to the boy. Whatever you do don't give into peer pressure, when your ready to date or kiss - date and kiss - DONT do it just because your friends think you should. But don't take it personally with your friends because they are just having a laugh - just try to ignore it and dont get annoyed. Tell your friends and the boys what you think, hope i helped = ] [ mariahwannabe's advice column | Ask mariahwannabe A Question ]
