The problem is he goes to the same college as me, and so does his gf. I was talking to one of my friends the other day and she asked whether i liked him, i tried to hide it but she could tell.I was talking to her later on and she said that everyone thinks i like him, i said 'whos everyone!?!' she sed everyone in the class i have with him. One girl even asked her if i liked him, she denied it and sed i liked my ex.She also said that whenever i see him i blush and its obvious.The problem is, i dont want to be an open book, if it gets out then his gf will be mad, and shes not exactly against hitting people. I dont like confrontation so i dont want her mouthing off at me.I dont want to be embarrased by everyone knowing either.Someone tell me what to do, i need help.How can i hide it??

How well do you know the GF? Would it have been a problem to answer her question with "Yeah, I do. I know it's not appropriate and I have NO intention of acting on it, so you have no worries. I'm really sorry I've left us open to gossip, and I will work on getting over it. Do you have any suggestions for a more appropriate guy for me?" You could also remind her that he likes HER and that it would take two to cheat, so would have no worries regardless.I know that's hard, but I'm not sure closing your book is the best answer. (Maybe getting a better poker face, but not closing up.)If you can't talk to her like that (and honestly, most couldn't) you'll have to work harder on finding someone more appropriate to crush on. You already know that someone else's boyfriend isn't the right guy for you (and good for you for not wanting to get with him). See if you can join a sport, choir, dance class, club or something else you like that will put you in with a different crowd of people. You'll meet someone else and your problem will be over.Good luck hon.
