Question I think he likes me and I KNOW I like him but we're friends so... - January 19th 2010, 01:00 AM

Okay, so I am entirely crushing on a good guy friend of mine who is actually turning 19 Wednesday (still in high school as a senior though) and I think he might be interested and I really, REALLY want to ask him out but I'm afraid of what will happen if I do and he says no and then like our friendship will be all awkward.. What do I do? Should I risk it? Would it really effect his view of me?

That's a tough one, if you guys are really that close knit then try just having a casual conversation with him like asking him if he's ever thought about you being more as a friend... if he shrugs it off then you'll have your answer. Even if your friendship goes a little awkward for a bit he'll come back around again, and who knows he may be thinking the same about you.

What does your gut tell you? Have your friends made any mention of him liking you? Just look at the past situations that have happened and if you feel deep down inside that there is even the tiniest itty bitty chance then go for it. Trust me when I say this, in the worst case scenario the short pang of pain from rejection is much easier to get over than never knowing.

I know you wanted male advice here, but I was in your situation not too long ago too. My current boyfriend and I would flirt like crazy for the longest time but neither of us wanted to actually make a move because we were afraid of how it could affect our friendship. Eventually, he asked me out, but I realize now if I had had the guts, I could have asked him out way before we finally started going out.

The moral of the story is to just go for it. You don't want to spend the rest of your life wondering what if. Good luck!!


I push bad thoughts from my mind;
so I can I pull towards what's next;
I realize my past is over;
and hope my future is not as complex;

Your never going to know what will happen until you find out for yourself.

Ask him out. But make sure you make him understand if he doesnt want to go out then to maintian this friendship you guys got.

Most importantly....... Be happy. Worrying about thing like this only make you feel bad.
