Question Posted Wednesday January 12 2011, 4:51 pm

Okay, here's the dealio. I'm in tenth grade and the guy I like is in eleventh. We've known each other since I was in sixth grade because we're on the same bus. We only ever talk on the bus, but I really like him.
Nearly a month and a half ago now he told me that he likes me and I told him that I like him, too. But now he hasn't done anything. He still talks to me, but he acts like it nevet happened. Sometimes he says something that makes me think he's about to ask me out, but he never does.
If he really liked me, wouldn't he have asked me out by now? Was he just saying that, or maybe he meant that he liked me as a person, but not like THAT, even though he was shy to tell me and made me guess?
Or maybe he changed his mind?
What do I do?

I'm 15/female, going on sixteen and he's seventeen.

Also, does it mean anything if sometimes he acts like he's so much older and wiser, or his he just kidding?

Hey there, I just wanted to let you know I am in the same possition as you, and as you know it is really tough I agree, it was actually me that told the guy I liked him first so I did and he said he liked me too. Now he acts like it never happened and he never talks to me anymore:( it is really sad! I know and well I answered or wrote back to your question because I am in the same position as you and I may not have the best advice for you sinse I am in the same position. I wish you the best of luck and I guess and I thought maybe he canged his mind too. Well like my guy said he doesn't want a girlfriend right now. Maybe your guy don't either and he is just scared to tell you. Well I hope this helps good luck:) if it don't help I hope it was a little encouraging sinse we both have the same situation! :D :P :)

There's like a 99% chance he's shy and doesn't know how to approach it, that he's looking for some definite sign that lets him know "now is the time, she'll say yes, ask her out"

Thing is, 17 year old guys seldom actually notice the signs that say "she'll say yes, ask her out".

Guys don't change their mind about this and still pay much attention to you. If you think he's about to it's because he's probably trying to work up the nerve and failing.

Be blunt. Tell him you like him as more than a friend, you hope he feels the same way, and if he does you've been waiting for him to ask you out for forever.

Also, the older and wiser thing means he's trying to impress you, which is a dual "he wants you to be attracted to him" and "he's trying to work up his courage by making himself feel older and wiser". Usually.

Something that will probably work really well. Walk up to him. Tell him you've been waiting for him to ask you out. Kiss him on the cheek. Smile at him and say "If you want to kiss me back, all you have to do is ask" and walk away to let him think about it for a while.

He could be nervous or he could be waiting for the
right time to ask you out i'd give it some time be
patient don't rush him he wouldn't of said it if it
wasn't true and he wouldn't of said it for the sake
of saying it i think he meant he liked you as more
then a person if he was shy to tell you he wouldn't
of said he liked you and would of kept it to himself
i don't think him acting older and wiser means anything it could just be how he acts your age is
just a number nothing more your ages aren't far apart if i were you i'd wait he may ask you out when
you least expect it anything can happen you never
know i wouldn't confront him about him not asking
you out yet i'd just wait(:
