<p>I recommend that as a course of action. ;)</p>
<p>unrequited love, one of the hardest aspects of adolescent life.</p>
<p>if the person hardly knows you exist, you might as well try to get to know him. or even ask him out. THERES NOTHING TO LOSE.</p>
<p>if the person is a good friend of yours and you don't want to risk losing the friendship, well, fact of the matter is, there's a good chance he is going to figure it out. unless you're really introverted and don't show any feelings, people are usually smart enoiugh to figure out who likes them. so from there , you're in for a good time or an awful time.</p>
<p>if it doesnt work (at the moment), and you need to get over him, bury yourself in work or other friends.</p>
<p>life's challenging.</p>
<p>My best friend started liking me and I had no clue until he told me a year later. He wasn't hiding anything, and I wasn't totally clueless, I just didn't figure it out.</p>
<p>you know what i would really appreciate? the guy knowing that i'm crushing on him without me not telling him.</p>
<p>get a friend to drop some hints, then.</p>
<p>"you know what i would really appreciate? the guy knowing that i'm crushing on him without me not telling him."</p>
<p>without me not telling me... wouldn't that translate to you telling him?</p>

I don't think you're correct in making a blanket statement here. My girlfriend (of six years) and I were friends for a year before we started dating. Sometimes dating a friend can be uber awesome because you already have a foundation to build a romantic relationship on.

</p>
<p>Or uber lame because the fact that you love them breaks the foundation of the platonic friendship, making meetings awkward and strange. </p>
<p>hey scholarship, maybe the girl was just his friend or she asked him to sit with him for whatever reason.</p>
<p>Will he figure it out? Hmm... Well, I don't talk very much unless he is in the mood for talking. I don't flirt with him. Ever. If I were to flirt with him, that'd just make me feel awful in the end. I don't know what kind of signs I would give him. I hope he doesn't suspect anything! D: Well, even if he did, he wouldn't stop being my friend. I just don't know what would happen if he KNEW I liked him. And... well I have much to think about! There is an advantage to knowing your crush.</p>
<p>yeah...i hope. but she's this total flirt...eh.</p>
<p>well i'm in the process of getting over all that crap. thanx tho.</p>
<p>hehe okay good luck! and PS a LOT of girls are flirty. They'll flirt with just about any boy. Many times they don't even like them. :P</p>
<p>I'd love if the guy I like who barely knows me could just know. I told a guy I liked him earlier this year, and it was so akward (we have 3 classes together and we're partners in spanish) for about a month, and I want to avoid that scenario again! (though I actually am starting to get to know him)</p>
<p>What I hate is when guys confuse talking politely and being interested in a conversation with flirting. Terrible scenario.</p>
<p>I dunno. Never had a guy like me enough to allow himself to confuse the two. D:</p>
<p>me too quitejaded. I'm ecstatic if a guy likes me, even if I'm not really interested. I'm probably the girl mixing up polite conversation with flirting haha :p</p>
<p>^^ Me too! XD</p>
<p>Lol I didn't mean that it's not flattering! Just awkward.</p>
<p>lol
what usually happens to me is
the guy I like either ends up not talking that much to me (if he used to) or he does something that really <strong><em>es me off
and then I'm like that's it! Cause I mean, how do you like someone who's an ass to you or does something to *</em></strong> you off?
And also...
haha, I've never been the one to tell anyone that I like him, but he ALWAYS ends up finding out from someone I told that's a friend of his or some sort... cause I don't usually guard my crushes... or in this case, this **** turned on me and decided to tell my enemies lies and truth (the only of which being who I like) about me. So I don't know if he going to hear or not.
But so far, the person finding out hasn't really helped me. I know last year when this guy found out I liked him, things got sort of awkward. Especially cause I didn't know him too well to begin with; and I don't know if it became naturally awkward on his part or if it was because I found out he knew and I tried to avoid him and stuff so I made it awkward.
Once I get over someone, I'm so much more relaxed around that person... but what sucks is most of the guys I like have girlfriends or a lot of people like them... but then again... those are always the ones worth liking.
And another thing... I can't distinguish flirting... I had one of my friends try to explain it to me the other day.. still didn't work that well
sometimes people tell me I flirt, and I'm just like what? no I wasn't... but then people also tell me when I'm being **<strong><em>y, and I'm like what? that was *</em></strong>*y?
so I don't know if sometimes someone is flirting with me or not... and I don't want to get my hopes up or feel confident about something that doesn't exist.</p>
<p>lol I'm pathetic! Last night I had a dream in which he said "I love you!" I thought the dream was real. Then my brother woke me up! D:</p>
<p>Ooo, see I'd hate for him to find out I like him because someone ELSE told him. I want him to figure it out or me have the courage to tell him. I usually don't let anyone know who my crush is (whenever I'm unlucky enough to get one).</p>
<p>see, i have liked a guy for over a year. and we're best friends. we always help each other out when we need it, we can always depend on each other, and to be honest, im not uncomfortable around him as i was around the previous guys ive liked. im actually able to converse with him naturally. The thing is, we had a huge argument recently [no need for details] and during that, I told him I liked him, and what surprised me was that he knew I did. everything's cool now and we're back to normal. i still like him...quite a lot. and now hes sending me mixed signals. its so confusing, and if i told my friends, one of them woudl say, stop thinking about him..hes a loser. and the others would think im thinking too deeply. but usually my gut feelings turn out to be true.</p>
<p>they'rrreeeee greeattt</p>
<p>lol I am kinda in a strange situation. I'm a guy, and yea I have a crush (which I can guess would probably reject me if she found out).. but there are also several friends of mine in the picture. Two of them do have a slight crush on me (I know from friends..) and so what I have been trying to do is let them know that I am interested in someone else discreetly (asking them if I have a chance w/ person I like, ect..). Its kinda weird, because they are my friends... but I want to remain friends and I don't want to give them mixed signals.... so am what I doing wrong or harsh?</p>
