Does my best guy friend have a secret crush on me?
Question Posted Tuesday March 22 2016, 7:18 pm
I have a friend, we have been friends since Pre-K. I have always had strong feelings for him, but I never saw him interested in being anything more than friends. Now he claims that he likes a girl in our school and grade but he couldn't tell me who because of 1 thing. So, naturally, I asked him what that 1 thing was and he said he couldn't say. I think his friends know who he likes, but he wouldn't tell me. Finally I pestered him enough and he told me he liked a girl at our school named Lauren Freeman, but I checked the directory and there is no one named Lauren...do you think it's me? Should I tell him I like him after 10 years of friendship? WHAT DO I DO?

You guys have been friends for 10 years.By the look of it. He seems kinda shy also he might be afraid that he might lose the friendship if he really confesses to you. So go ahead and talk to him about this. Do not worry about his reaction or facing rejection coz if u do not ask him,you might end up regretting it. You have liked him since 10 years.I wish u all the best and hope it goes well. However, do not lose heart if its a rejection. Its okk sometyms.

Men are not mind readers, unless we open up to them, and are honest with them they don't have a clue.
yes, It is probably the scariest thing ever, but if it works out that he does like you, and he is just to nervous to push forward, and is making the first step by talking to you about his crush,. then this could be perfect for you, and him to be together.

You've liked him for years, this would be a good time to tell him.
One of you is going to have to be brave enough to risk rejection. If it's not gonna be him, then maybe it needs to be you. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
