Boy Trouble: "Does he like me?" "How do I tell him?"

[fabulous_doller24]

The most good looking and nice boy in my school asked me who I liked and if it was him..I answered no. Now he's asked my friend if I like him! WHATS IT MEAN?

[MermaidSecrets]

It means he likes you, but wants to know if you like him before he says anything. He also might want to go out with you, so he's asking if you like him so he doesn't look stupid if he asks you out and you say no. At least, that's what I think.

I very strongly dislike it when I can't read/when I get mixed signals. One moment, he barely says to syllables to me, the next, he makes a wise crack and we're both dying of laughter. I can't tell if he's annoyed with me, or if he even notices that I like him, because lord knows all of our other friends notice so he's either utterly oblivious or just trying to spare my feelings, and I really don't think it humanly possible to be that oblivious...I just wish he's respond, you know? Give me a real clue as to his feelings, especially since I'm bad a reading people anyway. Gaaaah. I don't want to sound/come across as desperate, but I've been noticing my feelings for him for a couple months and not acting on them, or at least trying not to, cause I don't want to push him away, but at the same time, I'm so scared of pushing him away that I probably am pushing him away anyway. Grrargh. (I suppose this is more of a frustrated rant than a question, but....if anyone has advice on how not to come across as an over obsessed stalker, chances are I could use it. And for the record, I'm only freaking out because this has been happening for so long.)

Well, I had an interesting night/morning last Saturday/Sunday.

I have this friend. I'm going to keep along with my theme of produce censorship. I have this friend Jalapeno, who I've known for about two years. At first I barely knew him, but then we got to know each other, and about a year ago, I started liking him. I've been crushing on him for a year he's probably my best guy friend. Well I've definitely been crushing HARD on this guy and I was texting him last weekend while I was over at my friends house. After an extremely long conversation, I was texted what I mistook as him confessing that he likes me. And it's not like this was just hopeful thinking because he's made quite a few flirty comments before. Here's a basic summary of what had been said that night:
He had jokingly told me to tell my friend Taro that he had fallen in love with her (I know this was jokingly because he had never met her before). She obviously told him to go **** off. Literally. (What a good friend haha). Then after I made the comment that he didn't know her and he said he tries talking to those he doesn't know because he doesn't like those he does. I told him I felt offended, and he said I was one of the exceptions. Then I said:
"Now I feel loved" then he said
"You are loved" then I said
"I deserve love" then he said that I had his, and all that he was giving to Toro. So I asked him what he meant by those comments, and he said if I couldn't figure that out, I didn't deserve his love.

I took the bolded statement as my chance to finally tell him my feelings and was extremely nervous after doing so. He responded with the following:

"You really know how to flatter a very un-expecting boy. I don't think I could go and say I've come to such a level with you, but I have started considering you a very bright spot in my life and someone I can always enjoy talking to. I'm sorry. But... wow. Hahaha liking the only guy who actually makes fun of you for being a socialist*? Hahaha you're awesome."

So I'm not crazy when I say I was totally led on right? I mean, that's a very suggestive comment that apparently came out of nowhere. I was upset at first because I really liked this guy, but I'm getting over it, I'm even doing a project with him in school now. He was extremely sweet about the whole thing, even sending me a four-page thing telling me everything he liked about me, and that actually made the whole thing harder. If he had a been a jerk, I could have been mad and just sort of say good riddance, but his super sweet response just showed me exactly why I like him. All my friends are saying I still have a chance with him, and to just give him some time, but I'm not so sure. What do you think?

*DISCLAIMER* I am not a socialist. He just calls me that because I'm on a state funded medical program for low income families. It's our little inside joke.*

I go to an acting camp where everyone is like family. Recently though, I have started to fall for my bgff, best guy friend forever. He is nice and sweet and dorky and funny and geeky, something I admire, as well as a great actor. He loves giving people hugs and is super nice. Right before break I asked him to go to my school's winter dance with me as a friend. He said yes but told me that he was not really a party person, we got there and he didn't really do a lot and looked a little overwhelmed. I had fun and went a little crazy, partying. I tried to include him and so did my friends but he was just really quiet the whole time. I got a little worried that I might have freaked him out but later he acted like it was no big deal. One of our shared friends in our acting group teased us and said we should date, but we both got kind of embarrassed. Even though he hug a lot of people he gives me the most hugs and we hang out whenever we can during class on Saturday, Friday, and sometimes thursday afternoons. This is hard because we have really different parts.
So, final verdict: DOES HE LIKE ME?
Plus if he does, what do I do?

Alright so there's this guy that I find extremely attractive. He is...a jerk, so to speak. But a cute one. I've liked him since the first day of school, even though I have mixed feelings about some other guys, but anywho I had elective with him last semester and it took alllll my courage to just friend him on facebook. But, I did it(:
And this semester he's in my gym class And. I was captain one time so I picked him to be on my team ^^ but. yeah, he's a jerk.
But I've been talking to him like everyday. He finds me incredibly annoying. But, I was trying to bug him today and I was like "You love us, don't you?" (my friend was there too) and he just shook his head, so then I was like "Oh, well you can't resist our beauty. We're gorgeous."
And instead of denying it, he goes "I like you better when you were quiet." I was incredibly offended...but oh well xD
In badminton, I was playing against him and every freaking time he looked at me, he smiled(: I was like...oh my heaven. xD

I think he likes this other girl in our gym class though, even though she has a boyfriend. She's pretty nice and all, and he's yet again a jerk. I dunno. I know he doesn't like me, just felt like sharing this story(:

[eros]

I don't know if you should go for him. Jerks can usually end up breaking your heart. That comes from experiece.

So there is this guy, he's a year younger than me, and I recently discovered that I have developed feelings for him. It started at the beginning of the school year when I noticed him more than usual. Then on valentines day I sent him a secret valentine, and he acually guessed it was me. So I kind of figured that he already knows that I like him. He sits by me in church and at school he'll tap me on the shoulder or wave to me. He is nice and constantly tries to make me laugh! I have a good feeling that he likes me, but I can't be so sure. I need a direct answer from him, but I am really shy, so I don't have enough courage to ask. Plus there was a girl a while back, my friend actually, and I heard that they liked each other. I just don't know if he's moved on or has feelings for both of us.

What I'm about to say may sound harsh, but...

Everyone who is wondering, "should I ask him out?"/ "does he like me back?"... you need to talk to the other person. Most of you are young and, quite honestly, after middle school or high school, you'll probably never see the guy anyway, so what's the risk? It's unlikely you'll be with them forever, but you never know! He could be your soulmate! If he makes fun of you, he's a JERK, so who gives a crap what he thinks?

I'm 99% sure you're all beautiful and awesome young girls, so if a guy doesn't like you, it's his problem, and I'm sure you'll find someone who does. ^_^

I do understand how high school can be. I had my share of bullying, (I'm not gonna lie, I was the "girl with the reputation", and that came with a lot of glares and talk behind my back), but it doesn't last forever... so you may as well try to have fun. Take risks, because life is boring without a little bit of chance.

Also, contrary to popular belief, boys are not aliens. Just talk to a boy like you'd talk to one of your female friends; be natural, and don't for the love of cheese go all silly and giggly. If the boy doesn't turn out to be boyf material, then you've gained another friend.
