Hey! So I'm fifteen, and I'm a sophomore girl. Theres this guy... Hes basically like my brother. Were extremely close. A year ago he helped me through a really tough break up by just talking to me when I was down and telling me I was a wonderful person and letting me cry on his shoulder and what not. I also helped him when he was feeling shitty breaking up with his girlfriend. Since winter break we've been texting literally like every day... But I've started to grow some more feelings for him... There will be times when I think he feels the same way, that hes hinted at it so much that I think "okay he really does like me!" but then he ALWAYS drops a bomb like, "you're like my sister not a girl I'd ever date" or "I wanna ask this girl to prom"... But the last time he said those things was like a month ago. He actually asked me to prom! (in this really cute poem haha). Which makes me think he really does have feelings. But he dropped another bomb... He completely avoids being alone with me... He won't take me out to lunch with just us too and we were going to go get his tux together and he invited one of out friends... I just don't get him! He texts me everyday, flirts, asked me to prom, jokes about hooking up all the time... I don't understand. All of my friends say we like eachother but he denies it so obviously I do too! But I do like him... And I'm scared to ask him. I also don't know what to expect at prom because were gonna be doing a lot of couple-y things... And spending the night at our friends house and going to her lakehouse the whole next day... In a group of couples. It honestly kills me when he drops those bombs and I just don't get him... Help!
Additional info, added Thursday April 21 2011, 7:44 pm: He's 17, a junior of that helps any haha. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life? dolphina answered Friday April 22 2011, 4:01 pm: I wouldnt worry about it that much because he obviously likes you. Not only do you guys have a good friendship but he asked you to prom!! That's a good sign.
But I would say he 'drops those bombs' either because of commitment and doesn't want you to expect things like this or just to see how you react to that kind of stuff.
I would just say take it easy at prom and just have fun!!! It'll be a great night [ dolphina's advice column | Ask dolphina A Question ]

As far as the tux thing,. he is a guy so thinking in guy terms,. i would say he wanted a guys opinion on the tux he got.
And as far as denieying his feelings for you,. most guys don't show their feelings especially infront of friends,. because they don't want to seem feminine about it,. guys want to appear very manly especially with their guys. I wouldn't worry too much.
It seems like your guy does like you,. but it's still early in taking your friendship to the next level.
Guys are very confusing,. It shouldn't be too wierd with other couples around,. it might make you two more closer in the relationship area.
