Confused

[soccer fan]

Ok I am 16 and a sophomore in high school. I have liked this girl for a while and we have become pretty close over the past month. One of my close friends is also pretty close friends with her and he says she told him she likes me and always asks for help with me.

So the other night me and her were talking and she kept asking me questions about who I like and if I talk to anyone as more than just a friend. I figured it would not be a good idea to lie so she would think I didn't like her so I came out and told her. I didn't quite get the response I was looking for. She just said ok well hopefully we can hang out this weekend and see what happens.

After that night she sort of stopped talking to me as much and I always had to be the one to start talking to her or text her. She used to start conversation frequently. Our conversations aren't how they were before and just seem more awkward.

We aren't able to hang out this weekend (we had a snow day yesterday so her cheerleading got rescheduled for right when our date or whatever it is was going to be) but she did suggest we hang out next weekend.

So I am totally confused with all these mixed signals and can't work out whether she is really interested in me or what.

Advice would be grand.

No one can understand teen attraction. Least of all those of us who look back and see all the missed opportunity. Ask her. She may know. Or then again, maybe not.

You're a sophomore in high school, don't worry about it.

Can you drive yet?

If you can't, dating is out of the question! If she wants to progress things with you, go for it, but if not, don't worry about it.

What's important right now is that you become confident and able to talk to women, and then, once you get your license and a car, you can start hunting.

It is not "me and her"; it is "her and I" - that alone will make you stand out as having both good grammar and good manners.

Relax and take this time to watch and learn. As she sorts out her feelings and makes up her mind, you will learn how females operate. Take the time to learn this now. It will save you trouble later.

actually, it's "she and I."

[EvilEvilKitten]

In this instance, yes it is.

Your post is rather confusing. What I am getting is that you were talking to your crush and she asked you if you liked anyone, and you said you didn't. Then she stopped talking to you. If I got that right, then it seems that she was disappointed by your response since she was flirting with you and prompting you to confess that you like her. She then stopped contact because she figured she shouldn't waste her time throwing herself at a boy who isn't interested. If you want to go out with her, tell her you like her before she moves on! Or give her flowers and ask her out. She is confused and wondering how you feel about her, and she is not going to initiate more conversations unless you give her a strong, clear signal that you are interested in her.

No brown eye. He thought it wouldnt be a good idea to lie and make her think he didnt like her....So he told her the TRUTH (that he did) then she stopped talking to him.

In my opinion it could be that she figures ok...he likes me...what do I do now. Thats how I was. I liked my girlfriend. No problem talking to her but then when she told me she liked me I was like Ummmm......idk what to say lol

Well done though for keeping an eye on grammar for us. You are quite right so to do. I think in this case you were concentrating on the 'order of pronouns'...others first self last....so you are right in that respect.

However, I think that in the case of the sentence 'The teacher gave a good mark to her and me' might be acceptable?????

Two persons would require "marks" when using the conjunction "and" .

That wasn't his only grammatical error however; just the one that leapt out first.
