<p>Usually when I don’t want to explain I either say “It’s a long story” or “Can we not talk about that?”</p>
<p>just be like “hey long time no talk?”
and if he asks where you were tell him you were on your period and you had deathly cramps. lol it happens</p>
<p>hahaha, thanks for the ideas:]</p>
<p>Text or call. You live once. If you like him, do it.</p>
<p>You’re right!</p>
<p>Anyway, I’m switching schools next year sooo</p>
<p>did you do it?</p>
<p>I was thinking that I should wait until night time so he’s not at soccer practice or with friends when he gets it… What do you think?</p>
<p>yeah that sounds about right. good luckk</p>
<p>ok good. thanks! I’ll post here after we (hopefully) talk.</p>
<p>If you’re switching schools, then you’re in a pretty good position. Assuming the new one is still nearby, you can still have a normal relationship if he likes you. If he doesn’t, then you’ll never have to see him again, so it won’t be awkward. </p>
<p>I read your long post on the other thread (didn’t bother to read pages of comments), and I think you should definitely contact him. But, more importantly, don’t just say “hey”. However hard it is, you really need to tell him how you feel and ask if he feels the same. I’m a guy (currently in a relationship), and I’ve got to say, that has to be the best thing a girl can do. The burden always falls on the guy (traditionally) to ask the girl out. From reading your long post, it’s fairly obvious that 1.) he likes you, and 2.) he’s too shy to ask you out. I mean, really, he told you he liked you, by complimenting you in all those ways. Now that his classes with you are over, he’s probably kicking himself for not asking you out. I was in that exact position like a year and a half ago when my class with the girl I really liked ended, and I had been too shy to ask her out. Eventually, though, I got her phone number, since someone gave it to her to call me to bring a cooler to a debate function. I ended up texting her (my excuse was a “good” Jay Leno joke), and, after a while of that, sent her a long rambling message about how I felt and how I had been too shy to ask her out and didn’t think she felt the same. We’ve been going out for nearly 14 months now.</p>
<p>Just tell him how you feel. It’s very obvious, from what you said, that he likes you and is too shy to say so, and got depressed over something not happening between you two, and is now probably upset with himself for not asking you out. He probably thinks very highly of you (he said so), and doesn’t think you could like him. So don’t just send “hey” or something, because that could lead to a discouraging and awkward half-conversation. Spend some time, put your feelings into words, and send it off (if you prefer text message to calling). If he’s able to, I’m sure he’ll get back to you quickly. Either he’ll say yes (most likely), and you’ll be in a great relationship with someone you really like, or, if he says no, you’ll never have to see him again.</p>
<p>Go for it! You’ll regret it if you don’t, and the reward is worth the risk.</p>
<p>Billy, I really appreciate your advice. Maybe this is kinda weird, but can I PM you what I’m thinking of saying to him? I would love to have a guy’s opinion.</p>
<p>Sure, go for it.</p>
<p>Oh my gosh, just do it! Just send him a text and say something like, “Hey, how has your summer been? I haven’t talked to you in forever!” What do you have to lose?</p>
<p>If you’re thinking about him at 3:35 am, I recommend texting or calling him.</p>
<p>Anything happen?</p>
<p>I fell asleep at 7:30 because I had no sleep the night before 
I’m determined to stay awake tonight and text him!</p>
<p>Ooh. Haha, you probably (hopefully) already did it by now (though I don’t know you’re time zone). Good luck.</p>
<p>Damn… I woke up at 4 am yesterday and fell asleep at 9. I guess I could text him in the afternoon but I’d hate if he got it while he’s with friends playing soccer.</p>
<p>Sorry, I’m typing this on my phone. I meant to say, “I’d hate if he got it while he Was…”</p>
<p>Keep waiting and you’ll never do it.</p>
