A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

There is this guy I really like. I may only be 14 but there's just something about him I really like. The one thing is, is that he's a really cool guy and im not in that range of popularity. I catch glances of him to me about four to five times a day. Everyone says i should just ask him out, but I'm afraid of rejection. How should i handle this?

A reader, anonymous, writes (31 March 2009):

Why don't you first start a conversation with him and try to get acquainted as friends....next time he glances at you smile and speak!

Offer up your phone number and ask him to call you sometime, that way he can take the lead and ask you out if he wants to do so, if he doesn't you still may have a friend....

If you just walk up and ask him out, he may not be as nice to you not knowing you, I mean he might be flattered or he might not...guys usually like to do the chasing, they always have they always will.

A male reader, Uncle Chaos United Kingdom +, writes (31 March 2009):

Uncle Chaos agony auntYou need to answer this question, which is worse: rejection or regret...

There are so many things I'd wish I'd said to people I liked. There are a lot of girls who I liked in school that I wanted to say things to, but didn't... and I really wish I had.

And everyone’s been rejected at some time in their lives, I know I have.

But even though I've been shot down, I've never regretted saying how I feel. And though they said no, I'm glad I took the risk, because without risk, there's no reward.

I’ve always felt better knowing how a person feels than being stuck wondering.

A no hurts for a little while, not knowing lasts a lot longer.

It takes guts to ask someone out, and though he might say no... he'll admire you for it, even if he won't admit it.

Take a chance, what’s the worst that could happen?
