Well, some practical things to do is to just flirt. Don't go over the top with it because it will seem cheesy, but be yourself with a little flirty in ya. You can say things you know he will respond to so you get a chance to talk to him, leave and see if he notices, or even sit somewhere and see if he sits by you.
All of those things will help you realize if he is interested, but nothing will tell you if he really is unless you ask him! I know that's hard, maybe ask one of his friends or get some alone time with him and see how he feels.

At this age, everything that goes on between guys and girls can be really confusing because nobody has all that much experience yet. If you ask him if he likes you, he may not know what to say because he'll start wondering if you like him. You may catch him off guard and he might even lie. You're putting him in an awkward position. Nobody will know who likes who or what anybody's thinking and it'll be one huge, confusing, crazy mess. To save yourself (and him!) from this, instead of asking him if he likes you, tell him that you like him. It may be more difficult, but it's the best thing that you could do. He won't wonder if you like him or not and he's more likely to get the hint. Guys sometimes have a hard time understanding you when you're not direct. The best thing about telling him that you like him is that he is more likely to like you back. It's human nature. When you know that someone likes you, you look at them differently and you may start liking them just because they like you! It's a wonderful phenomenon. If you tell him that you like him, he may become interested in you even if he wasn't before. It's possible that he never really thought of you like that. If you tell him that you like him he will have to think about you like that at least for a moment. If you really like him, that's what you want. Telling him that you like him may be the hardest thing in the world to imagine doing, but it's your best shot. The worst that can happen is that he says no! If he says no, you're in the same place you are now. Maybe you'll be a little sad about it for a little while, but at least you'll know. You don't have to ask him out or anything at this point. If he knows that you like him, it will be easier for him to ask you out because he won't be so afraid of being rejected. You'll be a sure thing. Just avoid trying to drop a hint and drop something that'll actually mean something! Good luck! :) [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
