Can a boy and girl be just friends if they're both sexually attracted?
And both of them are single, but don't see each other outside of school? I'm in this situation right now, and don't know what to make of it. I don't know if I'm even ready for a relationship (never even had one and I'm 17) but I can't help but feel strong feelings for him, though I'm not really sure if he likes me back the same way. Tbh I'm not ugly or anything, and I feel like I've gotten some signs he may like me in some way, but idk for sure, cause we only communicate with each other at school. I mean we have notable common interests, it's not just physical, though I'm not gonna lie, he's really cute. I just get lost in his eyes. It's just weird cause we often have noticeably awkward conversations, and when we're not talking it feels like sexual tension to me, but I don't know what's on his mind! And I can't just ask him about it, I'd be too afraid of rejection. there's other factors involved, too, like how it would be interracial and I don't know how he or his family would feel about something like that. i love talking with him but at the same time this is just torture, haha

I know it's probably not what you want to hear but you just really need to be honest with him. You don't have to be blunt about it and just say something like " hey, I want to be more than friends." build up to it. You said you guys only talk at school? Invite him with you to a movie or just to hang out after school. Do this with a group at first if you're uncomfortable but gauge his reaction. If he seems happy about it then chances are he's been just as nervous about asking you to hang out with him. Get to know him better. Ask him about his family and such. Interracial couples are an everyday thing in most societies and if he truly likes you, this wouldn't be an excuse. To sum it all up, Go for it! In hindsight you're only going to regret the things you didn't do. (:
