We were reasonably close for about a month but then suddenly on monday, i went to school and i felt like he was cold shouldering me. I thought it could possibly be because there were a few rumors going around about us. It got worse everyday and I felt like he didnt want to talk to me. This went on for a month and is still happening. I told one of my friends who is also a good friend of his and she said i should talk to him and sort it out but I didnt have to courage to and i felt extremely intimidated by him. He never tried to fix it either. A week or two later, I found out he had told someone else that he thought that I wasn't talking to him. Its a huge misunderstanding. Day by day it got really messy and ugly as more people got involved and i heard that he said some bad things about me which really hurt me. Yet, i still want to fix it and be friends again to do away with all the awkwardness. Im new to this school and i dont want to be in a fight with anyone. Should i do something about it or leave it be considering he said something about me that really hurt? Reply to this Question Share |

Why waste energy on being nervous and scared of things that have not happened. Better to spend that energy on saying to yourself that you will talk to him. You may be nervous, may do clumsy things but if you get your message across, then what else does it matter. He may not understand, he may be happy, sad, confused or whatever, but still then at least you did what you thought would be impossible. Why waste more time than you already have, just say you want to talk with him privately or find him in an area you can be personal with him and let it all out.

There's too much rumour here. Neither of you have spoken to each other because you both think you've said and done bad things. But you've heard all this from other people, not each other. You need to talk to him because only he can tell yoou what went wrong. Go to him.
