Secret Crushes

Dear Journal,

We were having a Tower sleepover the other night when Maeve brought up the one subject that always makes me feel tingly all the way down to my toes: Nick Montoya—aka, my super-secret sorta crush. I know I must have turned 50 different shades of red. I mean, it can be fun to talk about Nick with the BSG, but it can also be SOOOO embarrassing! And you won’t believe what Maeve was saying. She actually thinks I should…get ready for this…ASK HIM OUT!

Of course my first reaction was no no no no NO! No way am I ready for that. And then, when I thought about it some more, my reaction was still NO. Hanging out with Nick is so much fun, and I definitely don’t want things to get weird. We always have an awesome time just kicking a soccer ball around or even working on a school project together! I’m afraid that if I bring up the whole ‘I like you’ issue, things will get messed up.

And you know what? I’m totally OK with feeling like that. I think it’s cool that Maeve would be brave enough to just walk up to her crush and ask him out, but that’s sooo not me. I just want to take it slow and see what happens naturally. For now, the only crush I want to hear about is the one between Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth from Pride and Prejudice!

Meanwhile, Club BSG members can also share their opinions about dating, crushes, kisses and stuff on our NEW survey !  Check it out -- tell us what you think!

you tell us ...
Do you think it's OK for me to keep a secret crush secret?

Your friend,

I don't have any crushes this year. I used to have one on this guy in my class but now we're just friends, or at least I think we're friends. He's in denile. I play soccer with him and that kinda stuff. In my opinion it's easier to hang out with guys. Girls have too much DRAMA.

I have a crush on a boy named Beau and I don't know if he likes me or not. He is always hanging around me and talking to me but I just don't know. My best friends used to like him so I haven't told them but I've told my older sister and my other friend (who never had a crush on him) and I really need help on if he likes me and what to do about it. THANX!

Well, I think that you should maybe make sure he likes you before you say "I like you." Spend some more alone-time with him, then see his reaction. If her blushes looks away, or acts a little shy, while you are alone together then tell him. Break out of your shell and show Nick Montoya how you really feel. smilies/cheesy.gif

I think you should do what you want to do. If you think about it more and you think you want to go out with him, Ask one of the BSGs to ask him if he likes you first.If he says he likes you,tell him that you like him back. After that he'll be sure to ask you out. Oh, and don't worry, if he says he doesn't like you you guys can still be friends, right? Right. smilies/kiss.gif smilies/grin.gif smilies/cheesy.gif smilies/tongue.gif

Dear Charlotte,

If you don't feel comfortable asking him out then don't. If you feel unsure and awkward about the date then it will show through your actions and you just might end up loosing him altogether. Just think about how really feel and sooner or later you will come up with the answer. Don't let anyone pressure you into a decision!
I hope that everything works out!

XOXOXO
