For the longest time, I've had guy friends. now I do have girls that are friends but then one started saying that one would look good with me. That got me thinking,'Yea right,' Hes pretty big and tall kid, and I'm not saying he's fat, he's mucsle and I mock him for that. But bmy firends just say we're tall and short. So, reccently, I've noticed that when I'm around him (which is a lot) my heart skips a beat, or I get jealous if he's talking to another girl... which I totally hate myself for because I AM A TOMBOY and refuse to admit I, like him.So he teases me a lot and likes to assert the fact hes bigger and stronger, but hes really quiet and shy, not much of a talker. So when he messes with me, or picks on me, or laughs at my jokes(and me, I'm crazy) and I can get him to talk when others can't. I don't want to ruin our friendship beacause it's awesome and i can whup him at video games, what should I do?!?!?!?

Carry on exactly as you are. Hang out together, beat him at everything you can and have fun. Keep him talking and learn all about him. If he's shy it may take him awhile to make a move, but the shy one's are always worth waiting for. Don't worry about losing your friendship with him, I'm sure he'd always want you in his life if your friendship is great. Just be yourself and never give up your tomboy spirit.

It seems like the next time you get him in a talkative place, you turn the tables on him and start poking questions about how he feels about you, you know? You're not going to be able to resolve anything until you find out what's in his head. I don't think you're going to ruin your friendship if you're wrong here... in fact, take some of that tomboy strength and turn it to your advantage and figure out what's in his head!! If you've got a good friendship now, I don't see it as a risk... just go slow because he's shy... if you come on too strong too fast, you could risk the strong friendship you have...
Bottom-line, get him talking and go slowly... bring it up the next time you kick his butt playing Halo! :)
