at the beginning of the school year, I got into a class with this one guy. he is my mutual through some close friends, but I never knew that until this year. as he is on the football team, I would go to all the games (I would anyway but it sure was an added bonus). anyway, I’m not a very quiet person, so soon, most people knew I had a FAT crush on this guy. he’s the shy, turns red when hes embarrassed kind of guy, so I borderline asked one of my friends, who he was close with to ask him. he was basically like “oh I saw you two talking a little, are you interested?” and in short words from what I heard, he said that he was interested but was too tired during football season. so here I was, extremely excited, waiting the four weeks for season to be over, still seeing this beautiful boy in my classes. Nothing ever progressed, and someone eventually told me that he had a crush on another girl. I was devastated, so I had to force myself to stop liking him. Clearly that didn’t go too well. We’re now several moths later, and I am head over heels for him again. It’s important know that I’m a very extroverted person, so I’ve never had trouble really talking to a person before. Whenever I try to have a conversation with him, my mind just goes blank and I’ve never experienced that before. I’ve had some small convos in class and some little convos 1-on-1 but they haven’t been VERY personal. whenever I think about him, I get the feeling in my chest where it’s like intense yearning. some of my friends in that class say that they kinda see him flirting back (or as much as he is capable of for how shy he is) but idk what to do. school ends in like 20 days and there’s NO way we get any of the same classes next year. what do i do? I’ve gotten such mixed messages but there’s no way for me to tell if any of them are true. someone helpppp (also, one of my friends who told me some of the info has wanted to date me for a while but I don’t like him back so that complicates things). ADVICE IS MUCH APPRECIATED this feels so huge right now and I’ve never felt this way about a person before. send help. 😅😅
