My crush likes someone else!


Question Posted Tuesday June 4 2013, 12:24 pm

Okay so a couple of weeks ago I was thinking that me and my crush were boyfriend and girlfriend but now he went and asked out another girl. I've tried everything but it's now working? Should I make him jealous and date someone else? I don't know!?!?!

If this boy liked you, he wouldn't have left you. And to be honest, from what you wrote it sounds like he had no idea you two were dating. What might have been "dating" to you, was probably "hanging out" to him. I don't believe in dating other people to make someone else jealous because it's not fair to the poor person that you decide to "fake date" because you roped them into your drama and took advantage of their feelings for you, so making your crush jealous should not be an option.

I think the best thing for you is to just move on with your life or let your crush know how you feel in private. If he decides to stay with his new girlfriend, then you just continue with your life. You'll find the right guy eventually.

I hope this helps.

A crush is different from a boyfriend. Most people ask the person they like to be their girlfriend. I'm assuming this is what he did and then he went and asked another girl out?
What have you tried? If you have already talked to him about it and he has told you that he doesn't like you anymore, then you move on.

It's not the right thing to go make someone jealous because you wouldn't be dating someone for the right reasons. You'd be dating another guy only to make your boyfriend jealous. So it's not fair to the other guy. If he doesn't like you, he doesn't like you. You can't make someone like you and if they don't like you, you can't make them jealous because they already like someone else.

So my advice would be to forget this guy. Go enjoy yourself and your friends. You have fun and if he sees that you're happy without him and that you don't need a guy, that could possibly make him more jealous than being with someone else. Then when you do find someone else, at least it will be with someone who really likes you too.

Having crushes isn't always a 2 way street. One may be really attracted to the other but the other not attracted back as anything other than just friend...not romantically.

1. Never change who you are to attract someone because you are not being true to yourself and though it might initially attract someone, because you are not the real you, eventually the person is reminded of that and loses interest or loses respect.
2. Never try to force someone to change who they are for you or attempt to force someone to date you. You'd be asking them to not be true to themselves, and become someone other than who they really are.

If he is not into you, there is no one you could date that would make him jealous. In attempting to hurt someone else, the only person who is being hurt and still feeling miserable will be you. Forget about him and move on. But don't go rushing to find a replacement just so you can say you have a boyfriend. Wait for the right one to come along.
