Mr-Scooter

I've like this girl, but she likes my friend. Me and the girl are both really shy. My friend is a real confident clown. She knows I like her (my friends told her and I did too). My friend is a nice guy but I wouldn't really trust him if I were in a relationship with him. He pretty much is single and proud of it. He knows a lot of girls from his job at a local water park and his church group. I'd always fear he'd be cheating on me. At a dance we went to out of state for a meet, he told me he just touched 2 girls or something like that. I think he may know she like him. My friend knows I like her so we don't know where any of us are standing in the situation. We may do a Kelso vs Hyde for Jackie type thing from That 70's Show (Kelso would be my friend, Hyde would be me, and Jackie the girl) or I'll just let her go with him to Homecoming. So she will be happy. But Homecoming isn't until mid Novemeber for some reason. NOTE: I am a grade higher than both of them.

Give it a try. Let her see her bf is a jerk, but its her deceison. I'm also a runner. Smoke him and maybe it'll push you up there a little bit but don't count on it. What distance race is it? Here's some "goals". I don't know what grade you are in so these might be too low or high. These are good times for a sophmore or jounier. >400m prob not too impressve unless you beat him by 8-15 seconds 800m -1600m beat him by at least 10-20 seconds. 2:10 good time and 5:10 3200m beat him by +30 seconds 11:10 3 mile beat him by +45 seconds. 17:45 good luck

HI I told a girl I liked her and that I'd like to get to know her better. She thought I said that I said I like another girls name. I guess I was trembling too much and she didn't understand me. Her girlfriends cleared it up for me. (Because they helped me say I like her). I couldn't bring myself to talk to her again because of inoppurntune oppurntunities and hesitance. At the practices its hard for me to just go over and talk to her. Its something that I can't do, I don't know why. Its not my style. If she was alone for a minute, I'd go over in a second. One of her best friends is dating my friend. I was wondering if my friend yells over to her one day randomly, "hey want to go to the movies with Scooter and me and Laurie." Would that be stupid or ok? She herself is playing hard to get. She hasn't said anything to me since I told her and all she said was "ok" and ran in the house. I think she might almost as shy as me. Also, is it ok for my friend to kindof fix up the date kind of like a "blind date" but not really. I can't jsut go up to her at practice, but if we were alone or jsut with a few people, I know I can do that. I did talk to her before, but like at a pool thing and team dinner, but its just kind of awkward to come out of nowhere for me. Sorry about the unorginization of this thing.

Hi. I'm 17. I've been trying to get a date for over a year and a half now. I've had 3 arranged ones but we never went through with them because they kept canceling. Anyway, theres's a girl on my cross country team that I like and have liked since May. I hadn't been able to tell her I liked her until last week when the team went up to the mountains for some altitude training for a week. A week earlier, I decedided I would tell her there at the lake. Unfortunately, it rained and I couldn't wait any longer and I took her outside the cabin and told her, "For a while now I've been thinking, I would like to get to know you better." It was then she said, "Ok" and ran in the house. Shocked, I stood there for a few seconds and then went back inside and told my friend and his girlfriend, who helped me with encouragement throughout, his girlfriend went and talked to her. She came back and told me that she thougt I said, "...I like Amy better." She said she told her what I said and I went to confirm it with her. She was in a group of girls and I'd rather be alone with her than in a big group of her friends. Then somehow, I didn't talk to her for the rest of the 3 days. I waited for a good time when she was alone or not busy, but that time never came. The plans I made got smashed. Maybe I wasn't assertive enough or too hesitant on talking to her. She also seemed to be playing hard to get, not really saying anything to me. She doesn't have a screen name so that makes it harder for me to talk to her. I myself am pretty shy when talking with people for the first time. I was thinking about double dating with my friend and his girlfriend. I've already met her family and they seem to like me. I don't know what to do. Any advice at all on pretty much anything would be a great help. Thanks.
