So, in Feb., there was a candy gram sale at my school for Valentine's Day. My friend sat with my crush when he bought one, and saw that he wrote down MY name to send a gram too, but erased it and wrote his name last minute. She didn't say anything to him, but told me. And I think my crush and I both know that the other reciprocates. I don't want to be the first to say anything, so how can I get him to confess? ...

just try talking to him, being up subjects like crushes and valentines day if thats when it happened, thought its a little late for that. there really arent ways to get someone to confess but you can try and get them on the topic of it

The first field trip was where I thought he liked me. He literally begged me to hangout with him bc he didn't wanna be bored. Thats where he got my snapchat. Then later in school i got his imsg. When school ended i told him i liked him buthe said he wasnt looking for a relationship. I dont talk to him much now But im just really confused. The whole time he was super flirty, even my friends noticed that he was gettin pretty friendly. He was even the one to make the first moves. Idk what to do tbh

just keep talking to him, some people don't always know what the want and that's okay, its a big thing going into a relationship. especially if you really like the person because there's always a chance it wont work out, just give it time and keep talking to him though!

Is this blog still active??

Yes!

My best guy friends & have some mutual sexual tension between us lately. I'm attracted to him but I don't want a romantic relationship with him because he's a huge flirt & I would never be able to trust him. He's been asking to hang out one on one lately because I think he wants to hook up... & im all for that but I just don't want to hurt our friendship because he's a great friend. Would a friends with benefits thing be a bad idea or should I go for it? I'm super confused! Thanks in advance!!:)

Fwb can be a good or a bad thing, the only thing you have to make sure of is one of you wont catch feelings for the other, if you’re both sure you wont then go ahead and try it out!

Hiii :) so my crush just got out of relashionship. He already started flirting with me. Is it too soon? What should I do? I definitly won't make a first move. :P Xoxo

if he just got out of a relationship I would wait a bit, he might be hurting from it and trying to replace the feeling of being with someone too soon, i would give it a little bit before you move into anything with him

I can't stop doing embarrassing things around my crush!! Ughhhh I love him so much help :(

Trust me that is a normal thing! I do embarrassing stuff on front of my crushes all the time! Sometimes they find it cute, the guy I’m dating now thinks its cute when im awkward and stuff, just try to laugh it off and make it not a big deal and it’ll all blow over!

Hi so recently I met this guy at a school trip and he was so sweet. We hung out a little bit and I really want to get closer. I never got his number, only social media, and I don't want it to be awkward if I randomly text him. We go to different school so it's harder to see him but I think it would work. What should I do?

Try messaging him on social media you have him on? Just try talking to him and catch up with him since you dont see him a lot. then you may get closer and hang out more

so my crush and i talked about hanging out and him coming over but i'm kinda nervous. what if i bore him or it gets awkward? i suck at keeping the flow of conversations and idk what we could do. advice on what to do and places to go on lowkey dates?

you could always go out for ice cream or frozen yogurt, maybe even a movie. Movies don’t always have to be dates so you guys could just be going to see one. That’s what I’ve done in the past!

So I really like this guy and idk what to do... It's such an iffy situation because he's my best friend and I don't want to risk our friendship but he means so much to me and I know i mean a lot to him and our conversations lately have really made me question stuff like what people say about us and our deepest secrets and really personal stuff. Idk help! Haha

Just try feeling it out some more! Maybe try bringing up a dating situation witout specifics you know?

So, my friend wanted to tell her crush that she liked him and my crush said, "wow, usually the guy tells the girl" and I responded "True, but times are changing." Then my crush said, "Wow. I wish that would happen to me." And he looked down at the table. My friend is telling me to go for it, because she thinks he likes me. Should I?

It never hurts to try! It could turn out that he likes you and he was dropping a hint!

There is this really cute guy in my class that I've like for maybe a year. He is very talkative with everyone except me and idk if it's cause he doesn't like me or he's nervous bc he likes me. Yesterday my friend, his friend, him and I were walking to the bus and all of a sudden in a convo I wasn't listening to, his friend said "he's single" and my crush then continued "and ready to mingle". Was he saying that bc he likes me or maybe my friend or to be funny? If you want more info just tell me

i mean, i don’t know this person so i can’t just tell you what his intentions were bc i don’t know them, but from the context it sounds like he was just goofing around with his friend

i really like this guy and i know he likes me back but im afraid he'll forget about me if i dont tell him i like him. im kind of shy so i dont have the courage to be straight forward.. how can i make sure he knows how i feel?

get a friend to tell him!! best way to tell someone you like them without having to do it directly to their face!!

I don't know what to do. I like this guy I've known for a couple months now and we talked a lot in April & I told him a couple weeks ago that I like him but I lied saying I don't like him anymore when I do. He kinda told me he liked me but he said he has feelings for my friend & she doesn't like him back I don't think. This may not sound like a problem but he is really nice and I'm so confused I feel like I should tell him I still like him but I'm not sure what to do. Help!

honestly, while i am a huge endorser of being upfront with your feelings, i would avoid saying anything if he likes your friend, regardless of whether or not she likes him back. going after a guy whose heart is in two places can make you feel like shit, you deserve someone who is 100% inested in you and you only

I've liked this guy for a while and I think he might like me back. I'm a really quiet and person and it's been hard for me to let him know that I like him (my flirting skills= nada). I'm worried that it's too late (it's summer) and next year he'll forget about me. What should I do when I get back to school to let him know I like him?

i mean i’m a huge fan of just straight up telling people you like them, but if that is gonna be a problem for you you can always try like, messaging him on facebook, or getting a friend to tell him for you!

So the other night I went to a movie with two of my friends (one of them happened to be my crush) and in the car ride home he kept putting his arm around me trying to hold me hand and he pushed my other friend so that he could sit next to me, and he kept wanting to take a picture with me and him with his arm around me then he showed everyone the picture!!!! But after that he has talked to me much about the subject and we just keep talking like nothing even happened... What does this mean

he probably is either just a very affectionate person and it’s not a big deal, or he’s embarrassed, or wants you to bring it up. i’d just ask him what was up with how he was acting tbh

Hello! Okay, so I'm trying to find out if I have a crush on someone. I met a boy that was two years older than me right before school ended this year. He gave me his number and we've met up with a couple of friends and watched movies, but he always stayed close to me, talking and sharing food with me. We've kept in touch ever since, and I think he might like me... but I'm really not sure if I feel the same yet! His texts always make me smile, and whenever we hug, I melt! Is this friendship or..?

i mean, that really differs for everyone, it’s up to you to decide if it’s just friendship or not. i, personally, am aromantic so i have absolutely no idea what romantic feelings are actually like, i only know in theory. but generally i would say that if being with him makes you feel different than being with your best friend feels, then it’s quite possible you have romantic feelings for him!

I asked my friend to find out who my crush likes and she found out that he likes no one. so then my friend told my crush (over text) that I liked them (with my permission of course). he then replied (these are his exact words): "lololololol really???????????????? mmm????m??? mmm?????????" I literally copied that letter by letter. So.. what does that even mean? I have a feeling he likes me but then again why would he??

i mean, i honestly have no idea what that means, i don’t know this guy. you’re best bet is to talk to him yourself, and at this point he already knows you like him so you really have nothing to lose
