so i liked him. and i really wanted him to make the first move. this was the first crush that i've ever had that i wasn't really obvious about liking him and i was trying my hardest to be nonchalant but still express interest...

and then on friday i found out he's going to homecoming with some girl who's a grade younger than us... he said that she just lives in his neighborhood and he's known her since the 3rd grade.
is this good news or bad?
we're obviously not going to the dance together, but he seemed interested too...

do i give up the crush as just one of those "things" and try to battle through the awkwardness of seeing him everyday or do i keep hope alive and hold on to the dream that maybe he will ask me out...eventually?

sigh. high school romances... suck.

I guess if you get denied enough you learn not to care. I haven't concerned myself with a high school romance in far too long to relate to this, but I hope I can still help.

Regardless of his intent in asking this girl to homecoming, she will undoubtedly interpret this as a move towards something more. I'm sorry, but you're going to have to forget about him and find someone else. But don't give up hope. You can still obsess over someone else without leaving all of your old passion behind. Change targets, change strategies, but keep the same strategy towards him. And no, you won't be a whore for doing that.

If you like him YOU should just ask him out. If he likes you he will say yes. It's a lot of pressure on guys to always have to make the first move.

Or if you really want him to make the move (or you know he does), then stop being "nonchalant" and passive aggressive, and start showing some interest.

Uh, going to a dance together does not indicate any kind of serious relationship. Heck, just wait it out if you really like him. And don't be non chalant about it, he wont figure it out.
