this is really long. but i would sooooo appreciate it if you guys could give me your input about my situation with the guy i really like!! it's like a story!
so i'm a soph this year and i have two classes with this guy i never really noticed before. i started to kinda develop a crush on him and then he asked me to homecoming. alllll was good in the hood. so anyways, after he asked me, he was sooo flirty. like 20+ people thought he liked me. two of his friends even told me and tried to convince me he liked me. he'd always freak whenever i got pushed over at a football game would help me up like asap. one time, i slipped on the bleacher (it was raining..i'm not a total klutz.
) and i hit my elbow on the concrete. he helped me up and kept asking frantically if i was okay and i said that i was fine and then he like put his arm around me and was like holding and rubbing my elbow for like 10 minutes until we scored. during games, he wouldn't let anybody else take my spot standing next to him. he made his best friend move so i could stand next to him. then like one time we kept pretending to break up, then make up and he would get jealous easily and break up with me, then we'd make up again... you get it. (all jokingly of course!) i even wore his jacket/hat a couple times.
he also used to always come up and start conversations with me too. he'd like come up to my locker after lunch and walk with me to our next hour.
so it was all good! homecoming was great. at dinner, these junior girls came up to our table and asked to take pictures with him (he's kind of really attractive to every girl i know. haha) so he asked me if he should and i said it was okay. two people from my table told me he kept looking over at me throughout the picture taking. he offered to share a dessert and then homecoming was fine. we danced a lot and it wasnt awkward at all!
but then one week (gosh this is getting long, if you're still reading, i love you guys!) i had a TON of personal family issues i was dealing with and was completely withdrawn from everyone. he tried to talk to me and i kinda blew him off... so then he just kind of stopped talking to me. my friend phoebe made us talk it out, where he told me that he was ignoring me because he heard i liked him and he didn't like me like that and he didnt want me to think he did just because we went to homecoming together.
i said that i knew that and then we agreed to be cool, but it's not nearly the same. don't get me wrong, we're still really good friends! he just doesnt start conversations with me anymore, doesn't make an effort to be by me... and it really sucks! i mean no one believed me when i said he that he had told me he didn't like me.
also random, does him telling me he liked my soccer tshirt (he plays soccer!) and notre dame sweatpants (he's an nd fan too) mean anything?
our "group" of friends is like half girls and guys so we hang out all the time as a group. i know all his friends already. and he also has no phone or facebook and comes from a family of 7 brothers and sisters haha. he did introduce me to his mom though!
so i have 2 questions.
1) what's your outlook on the situation?
2) would it be a bad idea to ask him to sweetheart in february? i was gonna put a balloon in his locker with a note inside the balloon and writing "pop me!" on the balloon. i was thinking of explaining in the note how i don't want him to think i like him just because i'm asking him and that i'm asking because he's my best guy friend and i had a really fun time at homecoming with him. do you think i should ask another guy friend?
if you guys read ALL of this, i seriously thank you from the bottom of my heart! i havent really wanted to talk to people about the situation except with my friends who all tell me what i wanna hear. i wanted to ask you to get an honest opinion!
