Ok, I have liked this guy, let’s call him……Jared, yes Jared….for a while now. He’s a type of guy that every girl would want to date, tall, handsome, sweet, and funny. Jared has always know I’ve liked him….which made being around him awkward, because he has never really liked me more than his “Best Friend’s Sister/Friend”.

But lately, things turned in a different direction. (At least that is how I saw it….) Jared went on vacation with my “family” (things are weird at home) and my mom and her boyfriend, Dave, are VERY cheap people. So, they got two rooms, one for themselves, and one that I had to share with my brother AND Jared.
I swear no one could mistake Jared’s behavior for flirting. I mean, he was practically all over my bed during the day, and he would ALWAYS try and talk to me. And I had one bed, and Jared and my brother had the other, and every time my brother wold fart, Jared would sarcastically start yelling and get up and lay down in MY bed for ten minutes, then went back.
Now, another situation was yesterday…I was at home alone, my mother was out with Dave, and my brother was at the other side of the neighborhood at another friend’s house. I just got out of the shower, and it was around 8 o’clock at night. My hair was wet and tangled, I looked like absolute CRAP, AND all my clothes were dirty, so I had to resort to a pair of old Tinkerbell Wal-Mart Capri’s I got years ago, and a T-Shirt.
I got a knock on the door…so I go to open it. I pear only my head around the door, and there is Jared with one of his friends.
I explained my brother wasn’t home, and where he could find him, and Jared boldly says, “I don’t believe you.” and barges through the door to go to my brothers room where he is usually found. (My house is known to be “open to the public” it seems.) I back into MY room, because I am freaking out because of my out fit. And when he comes back to the front door I open my door to my room a crack and say to go to my brother’s friends house, but he like wouldn’t leave, and he kept asking me if I liked his friend who was hiding next to the door to scare me, so when he does, I literally kicked them both out of the house!
Then he yells to come play a game of man-hunt (yes we are childish) so when we did, he kept wanting me to switch to his team, and when we had a lemonade break he came and sat right next to me, and we were like an inch apart! My mom even noticed (which is a step up for her)!

So, I really thought at that point he liked me, and today he texted me that he was inviting me and my brother to go fishing. I mean really, hint hint!

But, when I’m around him I always act completely stupid. I’m sooo shy and self-conscious.(I mean, I am NOTHING like his past girl friend. She was pretty, tall and skinny. And let me just say I’m not any of the three…)

So just two hours ago I asked one of my best friends to text him and ask him if he likes me, and she has been texting him for awhile, and he has always been very open with her, and here is his response, “No, I don’t like her anymore than just a friend. Plus, I’m not dating anyone younger than me for awhile now!”

I mean, WOAH. WTF!!! First off, I’m only a YEAR yonger than he is, and what is with all the FLIRTING and doing stuff together! I mean come on, really??? Can someone explain what’s wrong with this picture, am I missing something? Was he NOT flirting, and just being a guy-friend?
