Having a crush

How do I deal with these
feelings I have for someone?

#firstlove, #help, #puberty

Your head might be whirling with all these new feelings you have for someone. But what do you do!?

Here are some tips for getting to know someone better.

Don't look away! It may give him the wrong impression and he may think you're not interested. Boys are not mind readers, so when you see him in the corridor or classroom, smile and say “Hi”.

Ignore your friends if they don't think he's cute. It's good they don't like him too. But don't be put off. Good friends should support your choice no matter what.

Rather than asking someone on a date, why not invite a group of friends to go somewhere? This takes the pressure off it being a date and gives you a chance to get to know each other better while having a laugh with your friends too.

If you find they don’t feel the same way about you, don’t worry. Everyone is attracted to others for different reasons and it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you, it just means you're not suited.

One last thing, no boy is worth losing a friend over, so if you find yourself attracted to your friend’s boyfriend, step away. NOW.

ARGH!!! SOMEONE PLZ HELP ME!! I think I have a crush on my best/oldest friend (he's a boy but I'll call him X in this text), but he's like a brother to me. My ex, who I also introduced to him (I shall call him Y), I think he still has a crush on me but I don't like him anymore. Also I'm the same TSS in the "Tell Us Your First Period Story" article, so you can read that too if you need more info lol. But I also think that X's lil bro (named Z) also has a crush on me. But the thing is, X and Z live in a different country, but Y lives within 20 mins from me 😭 I also think that some other of my friends like me, because I keep getting funny looks (the kind that people do when they like with u) from them, but idk why! I'm rlly tall, towering over everyone else, I'm a plus size girl, and im not that trendy. I don't know what's happening!! But also, can you have more than one crush?! I mean, I've got a crush on a fictional character from a TV show, but idk if I like X more than the TV character! Or if I want to ruin a 6 year friendship! Plz help 😭

Hello! Back in January, a friend of mine (goes to another school) told me she has a crush on that boy from her class. Me and that boy go to the same cram school (math classes) since October. The thing is.. I think I like him too. For approximately 2 months I can't stop thinking about him. Also, in the math classes we are 3 kids, but now in the summer we are gonna have classes 4 days a week and it's gonna be only ME and HIM. I feel so guilty that I like the same person my friend likes, but like, I'm over the moon we re gonna spend summer together(even if it's math). What should I do?? I don't wanna tell her, what if I lose her? Should I make a move with him?
