So confused
I am a 17 year old girl and a senior in high school. I've always been interested in guys and I don't think I'm a lesbian, but recently I started developing a sort of "crush" on a girl in one of my classes, named Maria. She's very quiet and pretty, and every time I look at her she smiles.. so I smile back. And every day we just smile at each other but I get embarrassed and look away because I really like her, and all I can think about is how badly I want to kiss her. I go to a very big school so I'm not worried about a bunch of people knowing, but within my group of friends it wouldn't be accepted. My friends are wonderful and they would still be my friend, but it's not something I want to tell people. I don't know how to tell Maria that I like her. I'm not even sure if she likes me but I get this vibe that she does. So how can I tell if she likes me in that way? And how could I let her know that I like her?

You don't have to tell her you like her right away. Start slowly by making a point of going over to talk to her after or before class. Talk about the subject of the class. From there you can get an idea if she's interested or not. If she seems reluctant to have the conversation end you can then suggest the two of you get together to study, or perhaps go for coffee after school. Just flirt with her like you would do with any guy. If you're getting a vibe, chances are there's something to it. Don't let the opportunity pass you by :) Hope this helps!

Wow, this is actually what happened to me and this girl, who is now my girlfriend of 2 years! Anyway, I think you should just start talking to Maria and get to know her more. If you notice that she kind of flirts with you, but kind of not to the point where it's too obvious (I guess it's hard to tell with girls because we tend to be more intimate with our girl friends anyway) But let's say she puts her head on your shoulder, or she says random stuff to compliment you, then maybe she likes you back. And if you're getting the vibes, then most likely your vibes aren't fooling you! You can also try flirting with her a bit, and see how she reacts to it. If you get closer to her and more comfortable with her, maybe you could start off with asking her what she thinks about gay people and what not. If she seems like a pretty open person about issues like that, then that's a good sign, of course (: If you feel REALLY comfortable after awhile, you can tell her you like her, which is what I did. My girlfriend, who was just my best friend at the time, told me she didn't feel the same way, but she kept talking to me anyway, so I felt like she was kind of in denial. To make a long story short, I got her anyway ;)
I wish you all the luck!
