alex434 Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Hey all i've been struck with a recent problem i've know this girl for about 6 or 7 months i met her through my one friend. Now when i first met her we didnt talk much but in the past 2 months about we've been talking ALOT i mean more than i have with any other friend. I go to High school and she goes to Middle school. She usaully comes to me when she has a problem and rarely does she tell anyone else or go to anyone else. So she always *Talks* to me Now being as we go to seperate schools everyday shes asks me to pick her up and walk home with her, sometimes i can sometimes i cant and she seems to be a little mad when i cant but really when she sees me there. Now i know alot of kids from her school and its usually just me and her walking home alone and talking and all my friends seem to think for some reason that we go out? Yes, she does touch me, she grabs my arm sometimes and wraps hers inside mine, she like hits me, jumps on my back for piggy back rides and more. us like being physically close isnt a problem either we could practically be on top of one another and she doesnt back away or nothing, she always asks me to go downtown with her (even when she had a BF, he had problems that she was so close to me and questioned if me and her had something) Whenever she has a problem she comes to me and we are pretty close even though sometimes i push her aside because she can get... rather annoying and dumb at times.. Whats pathetic is i talk to her ALOT MORE than my gf which i dont get and around the same time after school every day she calls me. Everyone thinks i like her which i do kinda.... and everyone thinks that she likes me, when i knew her for about 3 months before i told her she liked me and nothing happened i dont even remember asking her out. My question is does she like me, or is she just a friend? oh and i should add the fact that she can be flirty around guys but hasent really been around them that much now and my friend that introduced me to her doesnt talk to her and me and him often argue because i hang out with her, someone help!!, Thanks
Artscrafter Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 It's quite possible that she's attracted to you. I get this impression from the way you say she's been acting around you and what I remember of people's attraction registers going haywire in middle school. But it also seems that you've known each other in just friends terms for a while now. I'm guessing from your mention of already having a girlfriend that you don't want to start dating this girl. This is fine, and it's fine to have a girl who's just a friend that you talk to a lot. If you're trying not to start something more with her, all you've got to do is the same thing you've been doing, in a clearly platonic way. Tell her that you just want to be friends if she asks, but if she doesn't I don't think it's necessary. Similarly, if any other friends ask you if you're dating her, go ahead and deny it since you aren't. (A lot of people your age will see a guy and a girl spending a lot of time together and they'll tend to jump to their own conclusions. Edit: Well, not just your age. I'm in college and people make the same assumptions.) If she's attracted to you and you don't want to pursue it, she might be a little disappointed, but if you're honest about it, it shouldn't kill the friendship.
