writes: Why can’t he see that we are perfect for one another? My guy friend and I have been friends for more than a year. We get along and finish each others sentences sometimes. He always brings up a teacher that I don’t like and he does just so we can argue. Today I said the teacher smelled and he laughed so hard and turned red a little. He always sits in my direction and sometimes we copy one another’s movements. I always dream that when were alone on the bus that he will tell me he likes me and we will kiss but that’s never going to happen. He always teases me playfully or does a peter griffin impression to make me laugh. Today I said happy birthday to him and he talked about how people sang for him. Sometimes I think why aren’t I good enough for him. We text a lot more now even at night and sometimes I don’t write back or he stops texting. I try looking my best for him but I can’t tell if he notices or really cares. People tell me to tell him how I feel but I’m stubborn. I’m afraid of being embarrassed or making him be embarrassed because he doesn’t feel the same. I’ve tried reading signs that he’s flirting but I never can tell. I only have until June to be with him then I’m off to college. We always talk about what were going to do after high school. Even though he’s one year younger than me. I’ve been confused for a while. What should I do?

Sounds like he is a bit nervous and shy when it comes to admitting his feelings. You are both very young, but lads take a few more years to catch up in the maturity department. You may have to encourage him a bit more and make him feel a bit more comfortable about opening up his feelings. The very fact that he is finding the time to text you and be with you should tell you that he likes you. Sounds like he's waiting for you to make the first move. Text him, say i really like y ou. See what happens. Hope this helps.

Well, you have to go for it! Men are rubbish at reading all those flirting signals! He likes you a lot, but may not have a clue that you like him. Stop being stubborn, take him aside by yourself and tell him how you feel. If you don't, you'll sit there wondering what would have been. If you do, he'll either jump at the chance, or he'll say he's not interested. You'll have an answer and that's what's important. Bite the bullet young lady and ask him how he feels.
