writes: I'm an 11th grade girl.A boy in two classes of mine and me are pretty good friends. I've liked him for a couple of months and I think he likes me back (?). For example, he thinks everything I say is hilarious and always seems really happy to talk to or see me. In class, he sits behind me and he likes to rest his head right where I can see him from the corner of my eye. And in general, he seems to get nervous when its just us talking.The dilemma is that I got asked to homecoming by another guy way in advance, and I said yes because I felt obligated. Instead of going with our close group of friends that I was going with, he branched out and asked another girl not in our friend group to homecoming and went with a group of totally random people. In order to make sure he didn't think my date and I were a couple or something, I made it clear to him that I didn't really like the guy I was going with, and we joked about him and his awkwardness quite a lot.But I'm scared that he really likes the girl he asked to homecoming. The deal is that basically the last three guys I've really liked have ended up liking her instead, and I have no idea why. But I'm scared that it might be happening again. Homecoming was this past weekend. In class, he asked about how my date with (awkward guy) was and when I told him it was predictably awkward, he laughed wholeheartedly and agreed. Then I asked him about how his night was and if it was awkward, and his words were, "Well (the girl) and I are really good friends." He meant that it wasn't awkward, but could it have also been a signal to me that they went as friends, not as dates? Or am I just trying to convince myself that was the case? Now I'm just terrified that this girl is gonna steal another one of my crush's hearts. Please give me an outside perspective.

Kind regards

You must stop second-guessing yourself, honey.
This guy probably likes you, but the more you doubt yourself the more he is going to think, 'Well, she's not talking to me as much. She obviously doesn't like me'.
Just be you, bring out your confidence, which is probably one of the sexiest things for guys and enjoy life.
