writes:Hello. I'm 17 years old. There's this boy I've known since I was 8 years old, grew up next door to him, he was my first kiss and little "boyfriend". We go through periods of not talking just because he's older than me (19 right now) and we have different things going on in our lives. Well, after a year of no contact, I get in touch with him again. We go out to coffee with my friend once, he seemed happy enough, and a few days later he asks me to go to a church concert with him. We end up hanging out all night, till 5:30 am! I forgot how much he made me laugh, how relaxed I always feel around him. I just feel so happy when I'm with him. It's weird, but I've developed a very strong attraction to him in the short time that we've reconnected. The problem is, I don't think (or know) if he likes me the same. He seemed to be in between "I like you as a friend but I'm also having a good time with you and maybe could want more" sort of thing last time I was with him.He mentioned that his co-workers teased him because he liked someone. For almost a week now, he hasn't contacted me even though I've sent him two messages on myspace, which he's read but not replied. I really like him, and want to at least stay his friend and hang out with him even if he doesn't return my feelings. How do I A) Let him know I'm interested in him without being too pushy and maybe get him to like me too or B)Get him to still hang out with me as friends?

talk to him alone after you hang out together. and say how you feel about him. let the chips fall where they may, basically when your telling him it will flow. tell him if he doesnt want a relationship that you'd still like to be friends with him. give him a while to think it over like a few days and then ring him and arrange someplace to go out with as either mates or dates.
hope it goes well :D
