I have a HUGE crush on this one guy named Lewis. Total hottie. Well, I need help. Does he like me or not?
Here's the scoop on him...
I've known Lewis for a long time. I met him in the 5th grade at an afterschool care place. Well, back then, I was a little tomboy. My silk curls of dark brown hair pulled back in a tail, jeans and t-shirt, and a fist that knocked any opposing boy on his butt. I was one of the biggest tomboy to walk those halls. Well, Lewis (back then) was a little smart butt. He was rude, mean, heart-breaker, and many other things. He was a good friend of mine. We'd always be fighting, but that was like a normal nice chat for us. Well, he moved or something and I didn't see him after the 6th grade. Till this year. I'm in 10th grade now. He's in 9th. Freshman. Well, the first time I glanced at him, I nearly tripped over my own feet. He'd grown! Tall, dark, and certainly a cutie. Sure, I was attracted to him, but he was rude way back when and I wasnt sure he'd go for me now. I never took the time to say hey to him though. Except for when I was coming from my 1st hour class. He was going to the class I was coming from. I was talking with my friend and I happened to glance over when he was coming by and our eyes met. My hazelish green ones to his deep darkened brown ones. Time literally froze for me. Then he gave me a big grin, turned and walked away. I continued on my way too. I couldn't get him out of my mind from then on. His eyes, the way I felt...it drove me nuts! Now, you gotta know something...I'm a sucker for colored eyes. Green, blue, hazel...thats it. I usually hate brown eyes. Yet his were so amazing that no eyes matched up to them. (BTW, I think of eyes as gateways to the soul) and his soul bedazzled me. Then, today at practice, (our first drill team practice of the year and freshman were trying out), I was just chilling up front and hanging with my girl Cleo. Then I look over and BAM! Lewis is sitting right there. I turned pink and sat down in my seat quickly. For the rest of the time, I wanted to avoid him because I was shy. Then we went outside and *I* was chosen to teach him and another boy to spin. He kept watching me and smiling big when I talked. I dunno what was up. Does he like me? I know it's extreme, but the connection I felt when I met his eyes makes me beleive I'm in love.
Well, recently its been weird. Like, he'll talk to me at Drill practice, but not that much. Only to tell me about how good he's been practicing. Or he'll mention how he totally remembers me from the YAC (Youth Association Center). Or he'll do some kind of hint that makes me think he likes me, but then my friend Christian had to butt in. She is a little bit of a hoe/flirt, but she HAS A BOYFRIEND! (Not like that would stop her from going for Lewis) but she told me she had asked him if he liked me. NOT WHAT I WANTED TO HAPPEN! Then she said that he'd said "I like her for a friend." Talk about my heart shattering. I wanted to cry. I felt so hurt! What's going on? Does he like me? What should I do? I NEED HELP!

Answer by: 2confused4words
i know its hard but if he said he likes you as a friend he problably means it. now you have two choices, tell him how you feel and see if that changes what you have with him and if he starts to like you, or you can let it be and just be friends.
alot of times people start to like the person they found out likes them. it makes them feel important. and they like the feeling. so they return it and the feeling and relationship grows. but if you do tell him then you have a risk. he might not ever return the feeling and he might shrink away from you afraid that you might think he likes you. or the relationship that you have already will become uncomfortable for both of you.
sometimes letting it be and just staying friends is the hardest thing to do. it hurts to like someone but never let them know and it hurts even worse if your their friend and they come to you for a relationship advice. but eventually you will get over him if you stick to this route.
