writes:Hey -- you guys may think this is lame but,I feel so helpless..and not sure what to do. I moved to this new school to carry on into sixth form, and everyone knew each other, so I was obviously a bit out casted at first. I took a performing art subject and I didn't know anyone, but everyone made a huge fuss because I was new. Anyway, I started there in October, and as time's gone on, I've found myself just getting closer and closer to this guy called Adam. Now it's literally we're together all the time and he's just so lovely, I actually have developed really strong feelings for him. He's invited me to his party which he's having in a few days, walks me to lessons and carries my stuff no matter how heavy. He's so lovely and if I was ever friendless, he'd leave his friends for me.Although not certain he likes me or not, this girl (Libby) who he used to be best friends with who left the school after her exams has decided to come back, and she's came into our class. I'm totally hating this because she's completely pushed me aside, and Adam seems really nervous and reluctant to talk to me sometimes when she's around. He'll talk, but no hugs, no usual Adam-behaviour. Like today, she was with us and she went to the toilet, he just ran into my arms and as soon as she returned, he was back to being nervous. They never were a thing, but she's really dominant and I know her friends don't like me [for some reason or another]. This is going to affect me and Adam, isn't it? Now I'm really upset because I really do have huge feelings for him + want things to develop, but because she probably has heard bad things about me, she'll try and steal the people closest to me away..which is him!I'm only new! And infatuated! Help!!

 From what you say about this guy, he seems like he does like you...he may have some kind of feelings for this other girl, or maybe he is afraid she and her friends will be mean to him if he shows that he likes you. Maybe he is just shy! Some people have a hard time showing affection around others. I think you should ask him why he acts different around you when she is there and give him a chance to think about what he is doing...chances are if he really likes you, he may not realize he is doing this and maybe he will make an effort to change this behavior.
