if i dont tell him that i like him, will i regret it? Options

[FUNKosaurus]

im reeeeally into my friends older brother, which is wrong on so many levels. he told me that i looked like molly ringwald [a compliment in my opinion] and taught me a few skate tricks, i catch him looking at me. he laughs at my dumb jokes. i dont know if he likes me or is just being polite. i have 'aquired' his screen name on AIM but he doesnt know that i have it, im scared to tell him that i like him. but if i dont tell him will i regret it?

he's 3 years older than me. im 14 and hes 17 almost 18..

im sorry if i sound like a bloody prat, ANY advice would be helpful. thanks..

anything?.... at all?

[luckyxi3]

hmm... go for it i say `cause you never know what`s gonna happen and it sounds like you two are pretty close and who cares if he`s 3 years older than you? unless he`s "experienced" and that`s a bad thing to you. but overall.. i say just tell him. what can you lose? [maybe a few skate lessons but hey lol jk]

Please don't double post.

But anyways, about your problem. I'm sure many other girls have fallen for their friend's brothers before lol. Well, it's best that you do tell him first. Maybe you should tell your friend first, it really depends. Hopefully your friend won't think that you hanged out with him/her just to get to know his/her brother. But it's better to let it out on the open before you get hurt. Who knows? He might secretly like you! But then again, maybe he just sees you as a fun little sister.. the little sister he never had. You'll never know until you ask.

But he is going to be 18 soon, and I mean, sometimes, older guys only like younger girls because they want to get into their pants, if you know what I mean. That's why it's sort of um.. risky. But you should tell him as soon as possible. But also, your friend should know. And hopefully afterwards, you friend's brother won't feel awkward around you and if he says that he doesn't like you, say that you'd still like to be friends with him because he's a very nice persona nd fun to hang out with. Who knows? He might start developing feelings for you.

But it's better to know as soon as possible, so you don't dwell upon this issue forever and like him more and more. Becaues the longe ryou wait, the more you might like him and then the more you'll get hurt if you find out that he doesn't like you.

just wing it ; you'll never know what'll happen

Sure...go ahead.

Don't date a friend's brother, that`s a rule that i live by... `cause that could end up ruining either the relationship or the friendship... usually, i`d say that age doesn`t matter... what, 4 years? it isn't THAT bad, right??? but then the whole maturity issue kicks in. not necessarily that he`s more mature than u are, but more in the sense that you guys are in two different places in your lives. 18 is, what, college level entrance age? and ur barely in high school? isn`t going to work.... u could risk screwing up a relationship, so in that case, i`d just keep it to myself.

well i think you should at least let him know... juss to get that part out. but it could be painful if he doesnt like you back, soo ya might have to get ready for that if you tell him.

[nlgrl]

of course... i'd tell him i like him before some other chick does... or u can get a friend to do it for u...

Well, since you already got a lot of remarks about your situation, I'm not sure if you'll want mine, but oh welps.

If you don't ever say anything, you will regret it because you don't know what's going to happen..So speak up and let him know your feelings.

[mai_z]

put simply, yes you'll regret not telling him...... but if anything does happen, just be careful

[Too Asian To DIE]

u will regret if u dont tell him... and besides there is nutthin to lose and mabe sumthing to gain if u tell him.... if u r going to tell him... wish u luck

i may have forgotten to mention that over the past month whenever i go over to my friends house and see him there he seems more... reserved. like i make him uncomfortable.

i bet its because when school started again he rememberd how [high school] girls are really supposed to look and act and forgot all about me.

i saw him tonight and he just treated me like his sisters friend. when i was going down the stairs and he was going up neither of us said anything and there was this really uneasy silence like neither of us were breathing. but he did laugh at my joke about shrooms go figure...

sorry for wasting your time. im sure you all have loads of things youd rather be doing then listening to me whine. i just really want answers... but he's the only one that can give then to me..
