Did I do the right thing by telling him she isn't into him?

Question - (22 February 2008) 4 Answers - (Newest, 23 February 2008)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hey, I need some opinions on my situation. There's this girl I know who has been getting textx from a boy all the time, and you can tell he likes her. Problem is though, she hates him. He annoys her and she complains about him all the time. For example, at lunch she said, "Oh my gosh! I can't stand it when he texts me. It's like 'Shut up already!' I can't stand him." I kind of have a thing for this boy and I felt bad for him. I mean, she was leading him on. So this morning I asked him if he liked her and he said kind of. I told him I was looking out for him and said he was barking up the wrong tree. He said he appreciated me telling him and said he was cool with it. Here's the other part to it.

I kind of have a thing for this boy. He's cute and smart and he's really athletic. I kind of felt like if she wouldn't take him, I would go for it. I feel bad that I told him, but at the same time I'm kind of excited he won't be talking to her. Did I do the right thing by telling him she wasn't into him? Or should I have just kept quiet and try to flirt with him while he was talking to her?

Give it some space because if you try right away he might think you just told him that to make him forget about her.

well i guess you told him this information because you care about him, and also it is to your gain.

No harm done, because at the end of the day if she is being so rude about him, you have saved him alot of humiliation.

so yes now you can start your flirting.

Just be really sure she was not putting on an act and showing off to cover the fact she did like him.

And if she really did detest him, then you have done a good thing.xx

Well it wasnt fair what this girl was doing, and although you were trying to do the right thing, maybe u should'nt have got involved. But its done now, and the best thing you can do is leave him to it for a while. If he does like you, he will show it soon.

duskyrowe agony auntI think she should told him she was not interested to his face. What I don't get is, if she hates him so much, how come he has her phone number? If i wasn't keen on a guy, the last thing I would do is let him have my mobile (cell phone number). If you like him for yourself, then go for it ask him out. I wish you good luck and let me know how you got on. Dusky xxx.
