im not sure what to do...

[LBC girl]

hi my name is jessica and im 13 years old and i am in the eighth grade. i am pretty polpular at skool and i can get almost and a lot fo guys like me but im lookin for a guy i can be myself around. i really liked this guy named erik who is also in my grade. People actually were surprised that i like him because he isnt the cutest and most popular guy in skool. and he likes me also but all of a suddena girl hes liked for a long time wanted to start liking him and she told a ot fo my friends she really didnt like him she was just jealous that he wasnt paying attention to her anymoe. when he heard this he said supposedly that"he didnt like me" (i heard it form a friend) and he liked her. well she stopped liking him and then he is all over me and he officially got over her.he denies he ever said stuff aout not liking me. and i do like him but i dont want to always be the back up. and if its that easy for him to stop liking me just cause taylor likeshim then is it worth it in the end. i guess the way i feel about him had faded away but evertime im with him he is always flirting wit em and he can always make me laugh. so im really confused cause if he does ask me out and i say no i dont wanna lose that chance.what do u think?

I think that at 13, this is a common trap that people get pulled into. He liked me, he likes her, I like him, I like another him, he likes someone else, wait, what?

 

My best advice is to just go with the flow, so to speak. Right now it doesn't look as if anyone has really distinct emotions (not even you) and you don't know anything for sure.

 

But it is possible for guys to switch the person they like, or to like more than one person. The "liking" is just the first step, the second one is the actually going out, and thats where the you-can-only-like-person comes in.

 

If you really like this guy and want to go out with him, go ahead and ask him out, no harm done! If you don't want to take the initiative (because you don't like him that much) then just see where it goes. Goodluck!
