Okay, there's this guy named Brandon and he's my bestest friend ^-^ (ish an insider). After a while, I grew to really like him. He's like, one of the only guys in our skool taller then me (and i'm pretty tall for being 13, and tht's no the only reason I like him either). Well, this really annoying girl named Sam saw Brandon and I talking and was like, "Hey Brandon, why do you always look Mary in the eyes when you talk to her"? and then a bunch of my friends got in a debate of whether guys (people in general) should look a person in the eyes when talking or not and Brandon and I just sat there. For the rest of the day, people kept coming up to me and saying "you'd make a cute couple" and stuff like that and he told me that guys kept telling him to go out with me. So should I ask him out? Cause he's a really nice person and all, and uh ,yea...lol....HELP
