My Latest Questions:

i realy like this guy! it all started back in my senior year in high school, last year! we had three classes together and became good friends in school. we never talked or hung out, out side of school. After graduation he got a house down the shore for the summer. all summer long i would think about him. i tried to get a hold of him but that was imposible! When September rolled around i got a phone call from him. since that day we hang out almost every day! Finally about a month or two ago he kissed me. now he only shows effection like once a week. basically we are just friends but i want MOOOOOORE!!!!! how do i tell him this? i can just come out and say it because we are too good of friends nd i feel funny! what now?

You have to realize that maybe he has decided that he only likes you as a friend, and believe me, good friends are hard to come by. The type of relationship you are in now is probably very confusing..You have to talk to him about where your relationship stands right now. Ask him how he is feeling, and tell him how you feel too. It's possible that he has no idea that you want more from the relationship, or maybe he just wants his space for a little while. Try to set aside a day for just the two of you to hang out and do something special together, and remember good communication is the one thing that keeps couples together. Good luck! Write back and tell me how things go!

I really like this guy. and he kinda likes me. i have 4 classes with him and no matter how much i flirt with he doesnt seem to notice, that i really like him. what should i do?

Well, I bet this never occured to you, but maybe you could try telling him. If you don't feel like being blatenly obvious you could talk to some of his closer friends or have some of your friends hint around...Another thing that you could try would be asking him to the movies or inviting him to a party.

Dear Annie, I've been dating this guy for about four months now. We recently broke up due to some common problems. I have never cared about someone as much as I care for him. I don't see him everyday because we go to seperate schools. That makes it hard to keep a realationship going strong, but I was always trying. He's a really good football player, and after every, game girls would come up to him,and hug him, ect. I tryed my best not to get pissed. I don't know if he likes one of them know or what. So this weekend I went on a date, he found out and called that night. He got really jealous and ended up coming over after my date left. He says he loves me but theres so much he worries about. For instance, we're going to seperate colleges and there seven hours apart. I really need some advice. Do you think we still have a chance together?

It takes two people to make a relationship work. If you really care about him you should not date other guys! I understand that you might have done that to make him jealous or to get his attention, but you are playing with fire. Maybe it's time to let this one go. Long distance relationships are really hard to keep going, and if you are having all of these problems now with him right here at home maybe it's time for you to move on. However, if you love him you just might be able to make it work, but you BOTH need to try.

I'm a 13 y/o girl and I'm really in love with this guy who is a grade younger than me. We both liked each other for a long time, but we were to shy to talk to each other, therefore we never went out. He claims he's gotten over me, but I am having trouble getting over him. I really want him to like me again. Do you have any good advice on how I can flirt and (hopefully) make him like me again?

Guess what... he's probably thinking the exact same thing. Don't just sit on your butt.. talk to him, hang out with him and... even though it does seem scary... ask HIM out! If you don't know how to do this, pick up a copy of any teenage magazine- they always have something on that. (don't take it too literal though!)

I am 17 and I kie this guy who is 18 and is one of the managers where I work. I would say that he liked me but there is one big problem that is in the way-his girlfriend of about 2 years, even though they are always in fights they remain together.He always flirts with me constantly. If I am upset about something he always knows even though my closest friend can never tell, and he always wants to know what's wrong and he tries everything that he can to make me laugh, no matter what it is. One day he called me Jessie and I hate being called that so I told him to call me Jessica because only certain people can call me Jessie and he pointed to my sister(she works there too) and I said know and he goes someone special and I said yes, and he goes can I? And I said no.And the next time he had to ask me to do something he started to call me Jessie but then he goes Jessica, then he asked me if I heard that and I said yes. Everyone thinks that I am super bitchy to him but I can't help it, I feel as though I have to be this way otherwise he will think that I like him which I don't want him to think, even though people have already told him. One morning when I was working and so was he some girl that was also working told him that he flirts to much with me and that I liked him and he said that she didn't know the whole story - well I don't even know the whole story I have no clue as to what he was talking about. I never get to see him except on weekends when I work and sometime not even then becuase we don't always work the same shifts and then I am sad. I guess you could say that we are friends and I am happy about that but I want to have more of a relationship. Another problem is that I am seeing this guy who lives 4 hours away for about 5 months now and I feel bad but I can't help it that I like this guy and that I have strong feelings for him. He always talks like we will get together and fool around sometime but we never do. One day he was like I stopped by your house the other night but you weren't home and I was going to ask you to come out and play (really he didn't) Another time he told me that he called that morning and the funny thing is someone really did call but they hung up but I don't know if it was him or not. I am so confused please help if you can it would be greatly appreciated.

Whoa.... sheesh you got a problem there. First of all, you have a boyfriend, he has a girlfriend. Uh.. did we forget something? Second, you work for this guy! Imagine if you broke up. Then he would be your employer and your ex and you would have to see him everyday and alot of other stuff..... I mean think about it! You need to think about the consequences of your actions. (hehehe....I sound like a teacher) You both need to talk about what you seriously need. Write me back on what happens!

Dear Annie

Hi,i'm 16 and last night while i was in a cafe,i saw this really cute guy and apparently he saw me too,'cause we had eyecontant the whole time i was there.BUT:NOTHING HAPPENED!!! So here's my question:when i see him again :what's the best thing to say to him? Something original would be nice. Thank you!

A good starter is definetly hi. It's a classic. Never gets too old. Well, besides that, say like What's up or something. Just be yourself and don't just talk talk talk and be a conversation hog. Ask questions that require more than 3 words. It works!

MY FRIEND HAS BEEN TRYING TO HOOK ME UP WITH THIS GUY WHO I DIDNT KNOW AND SINCE I GO TO AN ALL GIRL SCHOOL ITS NOT LIKE HE WAS AT SCHOOL WITH ME. WELL AFTER SCHOOL ONE DAY HE CAME UP TO THE SCHOOL AND I THOUGHT HE WAS REALLY CUTE, BUT ALL MY FRIENDS SAY THAT HE'S NOT. I KNOW THE ANSWER, "YOU SHOULDN'T CARE WHAT YOUR FRIENDS THINK," AND I KNOW THAT BUT IT STILL IS KIND OF AWKWARD.

Yeah, you do feel pretty awkward when your friends think the guy of your dreams is scum on your shoes but just ignore them. If you do go out with this guy, and your friends still think he's scum, you can tell them to get their own boyfriends and then they can have their say. Whatever you do though, don't forget your friends or make them feel jealous cause that will just make the situation worse. What about your friend that is trying to hook you guys up? Does she think he's ugly? If she does, you at least know that he's either really nice or she thinks your really ugly. If you think of it that way, you guys are probably perfect together. Your chances are your friend doesn't think your ugly, so he must be nice. Good Luck!

I am in total love with a senior. Im a freshman. THe problem is he is totally not my type, My parents definatly would not aprove of him,and my parents wont let me date seniors. The problem isnt my parents though! Its me wodering why in the world do I like him??? I Cant help it though! It just happened. I have no classes with him and My friend sees him about 10 times a day and is fairly aquainted with him? He dosnt know im alive! how can I get him to notice me and If he ever does then my parents..........!!!! HELP!!!!!

First of all, you should probably get to know this guy first. If he's not your type the more you get to know him the less you'll like him. Smile and be friendly to him. If you still like him after you know him real well, invite him to your house. Don't say your dating or anything, just do it like a friend thing. You could also go in groups so your parents won't freak.

-Annie
