What do you think

[RosaMystica7]

Hey! :eyes: My name's Angilla, I'm new here. I'm a 17 year old girl from New York.

Ok I met this guy 4 days ago. My bus gets to school 30 minutes before 1st period starts so I usually hang out with my friends in front of the gym. (There's usually around 100 people there. Sometimes more.) Only two of my friends were there and they were talking to each other so I layed down on the floor and was staring at the cieling. This guy came up to me and he was like, "hey what's up with the up-side-down girl." I jumped up but not because of him, it was because I had something stuck in my eye. So we talked until the 5 minute bell and I found out that he's a senior (I'm a junior) and he's the manager of the football team. :eek: And he's single. So we've been talking ever since. Yesteray I was in a pretty bad mood so I was sitting on the floor and he came over to talk to me again. He was joking and said I was boring cuz all I do is sit on the floor and he walked away. So I jumped up and started yelling and waving my arms around to show him that I got up. He was like "wow you got up just for me?" and we hung out again. I told him I was tired and he pushed my shoulder to see if I would fall over. He asked what was wrong and I told him I was in a bad mood. He asked if I needed a strong guy by my side and I said yeah and he put his arm around my shoulder and I put my head on his and we stayed like that for a few minutes. He asked if it was guy trouble and I told him I haven't had a boyfriend in a while. He asked if I was a lesbian :confused: and I told him no. Then the dreaded 5 minute bell rang and I told him I wanted a hug. He gave me a long hug and then we both went to our classes. Then today I was absent cuz I have a 4-inch long ulcer in my mouth and I was out cold on the couch from pain pills all day.

So. That's the history. Now. I have to figure out by Monday what I'm gonna do. I think it's obvious to him by now that I'm flirting with him. It's obvious that he's flirting with me. Is there anything I can do to get it to go that little bit farther? But I've been known for mixing up signals. :alien: What's a girl to do?

Sorry it's so long. Thanks for reading. :)

Hi RosaMystica7

It sounds like this guy is very interested in you, and I think that if his a confident person, and it sounds like he is, it won't be long before he makes a move, he actually already has by sneaking in the old do u have a boyfriend question. If his uncofident he'll probably never make a move, which means you should, why should the men always make the first move.


I really do envy this guy, I wish I had his confidence. Just watch out his not some creep that only wants to get you in sack


:eek2:

Hope I helped out

W0rd, sounds like this guy likes you a lot. Be careful he doesn't take things too quick, and that he actually has you in mind first, before his own interests--that means he cares about you. So heck yes he's flirting, it sounds like you may as well already be dating. For an examination based on stereotypes, i can't say whether or not he'd be the type to want to just do you and leave you--'football' imho is a minus, but 'captain' negates that, and maybe adds a little more credibility--team captains tend to have their wits about them, and think carefully.

Course, there always are exceptions to the rule. Just keep your eyes open, and don't stick yourself to this guy unconditionally. You need to be able to get out if you need to get out.

Here's to hoping you don't need to :)

Thanks both of you. :) One thing I've always wanted to know - how do I tell the difference between a guy who just wants a single girl cuz she's a girl and a guy that likes me for me. :confused:

[Kaisharga]

How about you become closer friends with him, in ADDITION to being closer 'otherwise' to him--this way you can get to know him a lot better. Get involved in his life, and if he tells you to go away, then you really should anyway. If he likes having you around, even when it makes things a bit less convenient/easy/whatever, then that's a good sign.

I just found out today that his dad and someone who is like a grandpa to me are both dying of the same thing and the doctors have given them both 4 months to live. That's so sad. :(

Well I've decided that once this ulcer in my gum clears up I'll make the move if he doesn't. Is there any way to make the first move without scaring him away?

[Kaisharga]

As bad as this sounds, for such a tragedy, it's kind of an opening for you. You can express sympathy and care, and ask if there's anything you can do to help him get by in his day-to-day, becuase this is going to be several hellacious months for him, and he'll likely need someone to talk to.
