I'm kind of a free spirit. I like being single, and I love having guy friends. But when I do like a guy, I fall for him hard. I'm only 13, so I don't want to date yet. But lately, I've been having feelings for one of my best guy friends. He told me he liked me about a month ago, and at that time, I didn't like him back. But now I do like him. I don't want to though. I don't want to risk a friendship that I have had for two years, for a relationship that may or may not work out. So I'm trying to swallow my feelings for him. It's not working out very well. It's only a matter of time before he finds out. I'm not very good at hiding these kinds of things. Is there any way I can Swallow these feelings, or get over this crush? Will they just go away with time? Please help:) I will take any advice...

Well darlin you can't stop feeling for someone just because you will yourself to
Follow your heart it never lies but you are 13 so take it slow and tell him about your feelings of ruining the friendship and take it from there

Is this the guy?

No. Different guy, he is my age. A few months younger actually.

Keep your friend, because the crush will fade, as you do other things, with other people.

Okay. Thank you for the advice!
