AdviceMistress answered Tuesday November 29 2011, 11:19 am: Well why can't you say something to him? It's not just a guys job to ask you out it can go both ways. I guess if you really don't want to say it to him maybe get some of your friends and his friend involved. That might give him a push to ask you out.

If I remember correctly when I was in the 6th grade boys were not yet as interested in girls as girls were interested in boys. When I entered the 6th grade I was 10 going on 11 and I don't think I had entered puberty yet. Until a boy enters puberty his interest in girls and hanging out with them, in a purely social relationship, has yet to developed.
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 ]
