I heard a rumor that my best friend likes me, but he's been ignoring me.
Question Posted Saturday November 7 2009, 2:40 pm
I am an 18 year old girl and a senior in high school. I've known this boy, Kevin, since I was little and we've been best friends since freshman year. I've liked him romantically on and off since sophomore year, but he's always had a girlfriend. He broke up with his most recent girlfriend at the end of August, which gave me some hope. Last weekend, a mutual friend told me that, at a party a few weeks ago, he drunkenly told her that he really liked me romantically. My best friend's boyfriend, who was at that party, told me the same. However, I went to a party last night and Kevin completely ignored me, except to ask for a cigarette. Lame, I know. I'm starting to think he doesn't like me after all. Or maybe he did, but his feelings have changed since that party a few weeks ago. What should I do? Should I let it go? Talk to Kevin? If I do talk to him, where do I even begin?

I think you need to talk to him though. Just casually call him and ask him to hang out sometime. you HAVE to talk to him in person, otherwise its not appropriate. then when you 2 are together, in a place with limited distractions, just ask him. "i heard a rumor that you like me romantically. is that true?"
