Subject: What should I do?

Question
I'm almost 15 and want to go out with a guy I know. I've known him for 2 1/2 years and we're friends. All of our friends say we should go out and that he likes me, but I don't have the confidence to ask him out. What should I do?

PS: No, I'm don't want to go out with him just because my friends say I should. I genuinely like him. y friends are making it hard because he might think it's a dare or something...

Answer
hey there,
i know how it feels to have your friends put you on the spot. it's hard and its embarrassing but since they're your friends, you can't make them change to suit you.

if you really like this boy, try to remind yourself that he's still your friend when you ask him. don't let yourself get pressured or nervous. that always happens when you're asking out your crush but if he's still your friend, it won't be that way.

lastly, don't let how your friends tease you or put you on the spot stop you from making a move. show this guy that you mean it when you say you like him because good friends often make the best boyfriends. you've known him for years and chances are you've laid down a great foundation for a potentially great relationship. dont' let that opportunity pass you by. because if things work out, it'll be so worth it in the end.

good luck!
