writes:Me and my best friend just started high school last week and we try to befriend our classmates, but it seems she already has taken an interest in a guy. he looks and stares quite often at her, and when she catches him, he doesn't look away, he just keeps staring. when she's near him he will look right in her eyes, maintaining the eye contact for a long time and she's usually the one who looks away but he won't smile at her, so she doesn't either.when she's far away from him, he will basically scan her with his eyes, then look away after some time. i noticed she's the only one he does this with. so my guess is that he too has some interest in her maybe likes her, otherwise why would he bother doing this mainly to the same person? the only problem i see is that he is a bit shorter than her and it's a little obvious when they are near each other, she seems a bit bigger, because she is curvy too. now, would this mean he would never consider dating her because of the height, unless he catches up with her soon? She thinks she has no chance but i told her she at least has plenty of chances to become friends with him, after she gets to know him. she has a wonderful personality, so why won't he like her? what are your opinions regarding all this? it would be nice to hear thoughts from more people, guys and girls, so i can know what i should tell her and where she stands.

 My ex loved that I was taller. Bought me heels and everything when I was already two inches taller! But he's a man...this guy is a high schooler and so he might care about the way people view him. Your friend sounds lovely! He probably is crushing on her! But, he might also be thinking: "what if she gets embarassed by my height?! What if she hates shorter guys?" At that age, he won't exactly be Mr. Confidence so you're right to advise your friend about a friendship! That way, they get more comfortable with each other and if friendship leads to more, great! If it doesn't, a good friendship is a valuable thing!

I doubt he cares if she's taller or bigger. I realize you're still in high school, where trivial details like that can still get blown out of proportion, but in the real world, that is just a small detail to most people.
