CRUSHES

I like this guy Allen, and we always sit next to each other like whenever were together, and yesterday on the bus we were sitting next to each other, and I was getting off at my stop then he’s like, “Chloe can I have a hug?” and I'm like, “yeah” then he hugged me for like a long time all romantic-like and then I'm like “bye” then he’s like, “bye Chloe.”

Everybody says we're going out (we're not) and idk if he likes me or not. I really like him but I don't wanna ask him out, but I don't wanna just stay quiet about it too, so what should I do to tell if he likes me or not? Thanks for the help.

If there’s one thing that guys are the WORST at, it’s showing their emotions! Most of the time, guys have a hard time expressing themselves, so they’ll do it through small gestures, similar to the hug that Allen gave you, to show how they feel.

You can do the same. If you don’t want to make the first move, respond to his gestures with some of your own, like squeezing him just as tight when you hug, complimenting his new haircut or offering to help him study for his next science quiz. If he keeps up his act but still doesn’t ask you out, I say go for it! If you’re sure that he feels the same, tell him how you feel, chances are he was just waiting for you to speak first.
