"I&amp;#039;m a freshman and I have a crush on a junior that lives down the street from me. I think I screwed up, because I was too shy to approach him, so I wrote him a note that said &amp;quot;Hi, what&amp;#039;s up, etc&amp;quot; and had my friend give it to him. A month later, before homecoming, I wrote a note that asked him if he had a date to homecoming, but he never answered. He looks at me sometimes, especially on the bus and in the hall before first bell, but I don&amp;#039;t think he likes me. What should I do? I&amp;#039;m very shy, so I&amp;#039;m afraid to talk to him. Wondering The boy is probably a bit confused by getting a note out of the blue, especially if it doesn&amp;#039;t say much beyond &amp;quot;What&amp;#039;s up?&amp;quot; I think it&amp;#039;s great that you had the guts to take matters into your own hands and try to get this guy&amp;#039;s attention, but if you are going to go that far, you need to be more clear. About two years ago, Teen did a survey of guys. Most of the guys said they liked girls who were brace enough to ask them out. But it appears that you only went halfway by sending your crush those two notes. You should have been more up front in the first note, asking him to meet you at lunch or something like that. It&amp;#039;s more than likely that he has figured out that you like him, but since you didn&amp;#039;t ask him anything really direct he can get away with not responding.   The best thing about asking a direct question is that you will more than likely get a direct answer. It may not be what you want to hear, but at least you won&amp;#039;t have to wonder.
