He definitely likes and respects you, but he might not be ready to ask you out. Maybe he's trying to read your signals. Many boys are shy and won't take a major risk (like asking you out officially) until they're positive they're not going to get rejected. Others don't have much dating experience, so they relate to the girls they like at a lingering getting-to-know-you stage. This can be cool--what's better than eventually having a BF who's also one of your BFFs? It's possible your crush will decide you guys are better off as just friends. If so, you'll notice that he treats you pretty much the same as he does his male crew or might even mention the fact that he likes another girl. As long as he's not acting like he's diggin' your gravy one minute, then pulling a "hey, good buddy" stunt the next, it's all good. MOSTLY C'S All Systems Go Your crush is giving you loud-and-clear signals. First off, he's showing you you're important to him--e-mailing you right back, paying you props, worrying about you when you rub out on your roller skates roller skates npl → patines mpl de rueda roller skates roll npl → patins mpl à roulettes roller skates roll npl . Another good sign: He shows genuine interest in you. This is good because, when a guy is vibin' on you, he pays attention to what you're all about. So why hasn't he asked you out? Well, he has suggested some group dates. That means he's probably trying to gauge your feelings and wants to hang out, no pressure attached. Just be your fabulous self, and let things progress naturally. The best summer romances are the ones that aren't rushed. |
