I think?

      Not Sure About Love

      Boys express affection for their friends by kidding around. They often do

      the same thing with a girl they like. A boy who teases you in a fun way could

      indeed have a crush on you. If he says “Hi, Psycho” and makes a big point of

      unfreezing you at tag? It’s a good bet.

      Loner

      I like a boy I know. My brother told me that the boy said he wants

      to be single, live in a trailer park, and be a sports announcer.

      I want to go out with him, but he’s afraid to go out with anyone.

      Should I ask him out or keep my feelings a secret?

      Single and Lonely

      This boy may indeed not want to have anything to do with girls—now or ever.

      Or your brother may just be exaggerating a bit. Try to get to know this boy

      better. Go slow. Don’t put pressure on him by demanding a lot of his time or

      attention. And don’t talk about “liking” each other or being “girlfriend and

      boyfriend” or “going out.” He’s not ready for romance now, but if he learns

      he can trust you, that might change. If it doesn’t, you’ll still have a friend.

      Mixed message

      I have a boy problem, and I don’t know what to do. He’s really

      cute, nice, and unbelievably sweet. Oh, and he’s really funny.

      He doesn’t like me like I like him, but he said we should be really

      good friends. That’s OK. Just one problem. He doesn’t talk to me

      or do anything with me, and sometimes he avoids me.

      Boy Prob

      When your heart’s saying yes, yes, yes, it can be hard to see that a boy’s

      trying to say no, no, no. You have to look at his actions, not just his words.

      This boy wants to be nice, friendly, and respectful. But he doesn’t want to

      be your boyfriend, and by the sound of it, he doesn’t want to be “really good

      friends,” either. If you force yourself on him, he’ll avoid you. If you want to

      be friends at all, back off.

      Shy guy

      My friends and I have a crush on this one boy. We don’t know

      who he likes, but he knows who likes him. He’s very shy and

      won’t admit who he likes. We’ve asked him many times, and

      we’ve told him we like him. What should we do?

      Clueless

      It could be that this boy is shy. It could be that his hormones haven’t really

      kicked in yet, and he feels about girls the way you felt about boys two years

      ago: indifferent. In either case, he’s not ready to have a romantic relationship

      with you or your friends. To question him again and again will only embarrass

      him. For now, cross him off your list.

      how to tell him

      you like him

      You’ve been watching for signs. You think he might like you. You’re ready to

      tell him you like him. How do you do it?

      Well, some girls will write a note. The problem is that once you put your

      words out there on paper—or, worse, in a text or online—you can’t be sure

      where they’ll end up. Will this boy be the only one who reads what you’ve

      written? Maybe. But your message could just as easily get passed around to

      half the kids in school.

      You could also get a friend to tell the boy for you. This has its advantages.

      If he says he doesn’t like you, you don’t have to melt into a puddle of

      embarrassment right at his feet. On the other hand, it’s peculiar when you

      think about it. If you like a guy, shouldn’t you be able to talk to him

      yourself?
