I like this guy (lets call him Bob) but Bob likes this other girl (lets call her Jill). Even though Bob says he doesnt like Jill I know he does. Jill doesnt like him, plus she only flirts with Bob because shes bored. Anyway theres also another thing, alot of ppl dont like Bob. So i cant tell my friends, at least half of them, that I like him cause they'll be all like "why? Bobs a jerk" but they dont understand where he's coming from and it pisses me off. I've only told one of my friends because she understands where Bob's coming from. Also Bob's younger than me and even though to me age doesnt matter i've heard that alot of guys dont like dating girls older than them because it makes them feel like outta power. Tonight we were at this pool party and Bob was kinda just lying around, didnt swim at all. Jill was about to be thrown into the pool by another guy and Bob tried to stop him. But Jill was all "get away from me" Bob stormed out. I followed him out to his car and he was crying cause he was sick and tired of all the shit people were giving him. I helped him get through it but afterwards he just went up and talked to Jill. grrrrr

So ya basically the guy I like, whom everybody hates and is younger than me, likes another girl. What should I do?
