Crushing on BFF’s Brother
Hey Vanessa and Angela,
I just read the letter a girl wrote to you today about a boy she likes. I’m sort of in a similar situation. I’ve known this guy for about 4 years now and we’ve always been just plain friends. His sister is my best friend also. It’s basically been back and forth with him and I. I would like him for a while then get over it and he would do the same. He’s has been asking me out on and off for a while now but i never took him seriously and a few weeks ago he asked me out again . I did not know what to say because I did not want to play myself if he was joking. His sister told me that he was really serious. I really dont know what to do right now I do like him but Im scared of how he may react if i say something about it. What should I do? How should I bring it to him? Thanks for listening. Love “Drea”.
Pastry’s advice: How will he ever know how you really feel? Talk to him and express your feelings. Why are you so afraid he is going to play you? What have you really got to lose? Stop being a coward. Just go for it. Enjoy the experience for what it is.
What would you people out there in the land of Pastry have to say about this one?

January 30th, 2009 at 10:48 pmHi Angela & Vanessa. It is this boy who I like and he knows but all my friends say that he is shy and I don’t know if he is or not. What should I do?
January 31st, 2009 at 12:15 pmwell i think that if he is shy
January 31st, 2009 at 8:35 pmWell if he is shy then i say don’t go for it cuz he won’t express his feeling enough….Or you could just ask him out see if he says yes and see how it goes from there.
January 31st, 2009 at 11:26 pmim thinkin you should go for it!! since your friends with his sister things might work out better!! but what if you and him start hooking up and things do work out you might have a better relationship with his sister or you might not. this has never happend to me so idk just givin some advice

February 1st, 2009 at 1:57 pmI think it’s worth a try and besides we learn something from every situation that we are in and sometimes it’s good and sometimes it’s bad but we just have to take it for what it is. Even if he is joking with you, things happen and people come into our lives for a reason…..and that’s to make us stronger and wiser! I say go for it…
