Question
Hi, my names Sophie and i'm almost 15.
My friend and I were totaly crazy about this guy who lives close to her house and we would like never stop talking about him and crushing on him. The problem was, we both really liked him. After a month or two of us being very obsessed with him, my friend decided that she didn't like him anymore and was going to move on. I of course thought this was great because we would fight over him anymore (only play fighting). And after another week I decided that I really liked him (Michael). I wanted to make myself try and not like him because he was a year older than me and i had never met him before. Yesterday, i met him for the first time. I was so shy but in total awe!!! I canot stop thinking about him. My friend said that I should ask him out because the worst he could say is no. Word got round to him some how and later today he asked me if i wanted to sak him out. My friend helped me with what to say to him and I got myself in quite a pickel!!!! After I admitted that i was thinking about asking him out, he text me back and asked me if i wanted to go out with him. I straigh away thought he was joking but my friend assured me that he was not. After what seemed like an hour, he text me bak saying he was joking and just wanted to see if I actually liked him. I freaked out and straight away said that i was "just joking" and asked him where he got the idea that i liked him. He then asked if i did really want to ask him out and that it seemed like i did. I asked hom did it seem like I did.

Im soooooooooo sorry if that is hard to follow but I really would like someones advice on this. I need someone to talk to!!! I am absolutely mortified by this because I really do like him and now he either thinks im wierd or that i dont like him. I would like to text him but i dont know what to say to him or what to talk about.

Please please please help me!!!

Answer
hi sophie,

i guess you have to decide if you like this guy enough to take the risk of actually pursuing him or you want to take a step back. if i were in your shoes, i would probably do my best to act unaffected and to play it off as something that doesn't bother me. the more that people think that you like someone the more embarrassed you'll feel if you let them know that you are in fact embarrassed. so just play it cool and laugh about it. and don't let them see that you're taking it so seriously, okay?

but if you really like this guy, you could just tell him up front that you like him. he could shoot you down but at least you'll have told him and you won't spend any more of your time wondering if he likes you back or not.

hope that helps.

good luck!
