writes: Please help me! I am an 18 y\o girl who has been extremely unsuccessful with guys in the past. I'm in Y13 at school, and this year I took up a new subject which meant I had to study it with the Y12 class. At first I thought I wouldn't get on with them but they were great and I now have several friends, in particular this one guy. When I first started attending it I didn't really notice him and we didn't really speak, but in the last month or so we've started chatting and now we get on really well. I've started to fancy him but I don't know how he feels about me. He does things that I see as maybe pointing towards he likes me as more than a friend, but I know I'm a person who would pick at any little thing if it seemed to say that he liked me. For instance...in one of my last classes we hadn't spoken and I thought it would be one of those lessons where I just didn't get the chance to talk to him (we were at opposite ends of the classroom working). But then someone happened to call over something to me for a second and he joined in - so basically we just exchanged a single sentence. Surely someone else (if they didn't like me) wouldn't have a) joined in at all or b) did what he did next! He used that to come over and totally pin me against the desk (in a friendly way!) and then we sat together for the rest of the lesson.And also...in just my last class on Thursday our teachers had a meeting so some of the class (including me and him) were just standing outside wondering what to do. He said he was going to walk home but he doesn't like to walk alone (a hint perhaps?!) so I said I'd walk with him. He was like okay and then asked me which way I normally walked. Unfortunately it turned out we lived in completely opposite directions to each other. Even so he asked me where I lived and I told him, and then he kind of thought and said it was too far (not in a nasty way though) so we just said goodbye and went on our way. The way he said though it made it seem like he was considering going out of his way to walk with me...but again I could just be being hyper sensitive.I worry about doing anything overt towards him to show that I like him because I've been hurt so many times in the past. Also he seems to have a lot of girl friends (two separate words!) and I worry that he's just being friendly and I'm reading into it too much. I also would feel weird because although he's so friendly and lovely, he's in the year below and I'm going off to University in about 6 months...I don't know what to do! Should I wait and see if he does anything? In the past I've always been the one that told the guy I like them and it's always ended in failure. Please help! Yours, Tokyo_Peach xoxoP.S - Sorry this 'question' is so long!! P.P.S - My school is having a 6th Form party this week and all my friends say I should go if he is going. But I would feel embarrassed being there as all the girls he hangs out with are seen as quite popular and pretty. Also they are all quite thin and although I'm not fat I have a curvy body shape so I would be worried about looking stupid with them there. What should I do?! I'm planning to ask him if he's going on Tuesday when we have our next class together.
