I wouldn't ask him out. Wait a few more years untill you're older, because during puberty people change and become hopefully more maturer, so then you'll be able to have a serious relationship.
I know it's nieve of me to think automatically you're not mature yet as most 12 years olds arn't, but if you wait as well then more options may arise :) [ kittenlover2000's advice column | Ask kittenlover2000 A Question ]

If this is what you are fighting, which I think it may be, you are fighting an up hill battle. My advice to you is to remain friends with him but do not push him into anything he may not be ready for.
As for being ready for anything; neither of you are yet in your teenage years. Relax a bit and enjoy who you are and what there is to do within your age group. You have plenty of time to date and chase boys or rather have boys chase you.
From purely a parental stand point I don't think I would approve of any exclusive type of relationships at your age. I would rather see you and your friends, girls and boys doing, things in groups. Things like hanging out at the mall together, going skating, bowling or to the movies. This is called socializing which is a very important part of growing up. Something I believe all adolescents must experience before they start any type of exclusive relationships. This is how you learn to judge other people and is something that is very important for your own safety as you grow older. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
