I really like this girl and i asked her to prom, and i was going to ask her out but yesterday i found out she has a boyfriend. I feel like my heart is broken in half because i've liked her for 6 months and never really told her until i ask her to prom. what should i do? should i wait or move on?

Chances are, if you pursue her while she has a boyfriend, you'll just get your ass kicked. Move on, just be a friend for now.

Stay friends with her until she becomes available.

Ditto.....Many relationships dont last,ao if she is worth waiting for....wait.Be supportive of her crrent choioce and an empathetic listener,dont talk the guy down to her(manipulitive and she will see through it).Just be there to be her friend.

You've liked her for six months, and you didn't know she had a boyfriend until you asked her to prom? Did she tell you that when you asked? Because it sounds to me like she just didn't know how to say no. That is, she lied. She doesn't like you back. Just let go. I know that's easier said than done but it's all you can do.

Obviously, stabbing him repeatedly in the head with a sharpened brick is the only way forwards. How will she resist such a powerful display of manly might?

:oops: Cal. I agree with part one. stay friends with her. :idea:

however, I disagree with you on part two. If she's happy with who she's with then you have no reason at all to feel ill will or wish ill feelings upon this couple. :P

I'm seriously gonna disagree here with you Esper. If I found out she said she had a boyfriend, I'd do some snooping. if you know any of her friends, discreetly( I don't know if we AS can do discreet, its hard, but managable) ask if she's currently with someone. If it turns out she is, then when they ask why you ask, just ask for curiosities sake. if any more questions arise from it, just say that you were curious and that's all. 8)

THe fact kid that you liked her for six months..............the fact that you liked her for six months. my first girlfriend and I met each other and within two weeks we were together. we both knew it was a match to begin with.


Now my next question. Do you actually know her? Are you actually friends with said girl, and does she know you exist? While these three sound a bit.............uh.......asking you like you're stupid, they're pertinent, if this is a girl who you've liked from afar and had dreams about, keep on dreaming, but if she's someone you know.....then all is good. I just need confirmation.

Hey, if you know something's right, you have to go for it, right?
That's the kind of stuff people are always telling me. I'm not
saying try to break them up; I just know that if things aren't
too hot between them, as he expressed, an extra guy around
isn't going to make them any closer.

I'm not a jealous type; I usually don't give a crap about their boyfriends. Now if the boyfriend is a possessive type, then I get worried. It ultimately depends on how strong their relationship is more than anything else. If they're in a faltering one, you could theoretically make a move, but it's best to assess your situation first.

Find someone else to obsess about.
You have no chance anyway if you act like a lapdog.
There are plenty to choose from.
You can still be her friend.
Keep your options open; you may or may not be available when she has finished with laughing boy.
This is your attitude.

False hope. Move on and put your energies and emotions into something more rewarding and promising.

So obviously, the solution is to make it so they aren't a happy couple. Dig up some dirt. Or when that fails, make some up. Nothing beats a good smear campaign!

yeah she knows i exist. she says hi to me and gives me hugs but i don't think she realizes how happy she makes me feel. her hugs are amazing and they just ugh make me feel on top of the world. i just wish that she knew. also i found out that she likes her boyfriend alot and her friends say that she likes me only as a friend. i wish it could be more than that.
