Okay so I am 11, and I like a boy same age as me but I don't know if he likes me. Another boy knows I like him! What do I do?

Tell him!

You are only 11 and you have your whole life to spend worrying about what other people will think.

Right now you should just go for it. It will be great practice for all the other boys you'll meet, it will make you a stronger and more confident young woman, and it will make you more desirable professionally and romantically if you can learn to be open, upfront, and honest.

Don't play games, just tell him the very next time you see him.

Oh, and please tell us how it goes!

You may be young, but it doesn't matter. Go for it and ask him yourself. I know you may be shy but might as well get it over with so won't have to keep wondering if he likes you or not. But remember focus on your education too :)

Sorry, but you are only 11. It is too young to start with boy/girl relationships. First you need to ask your parents whether you can do this. Until they agree, just be friends with children your own age, whether boys or girls.

This business about making you stronger and confident is garbage. If he rejects you it is likely to have just the opposite effect. At 11 you are not yet mature enough to handle this type of thing.

Enjoy your childhood. Don't try to grow up too fast.

I couldn't agree more. Sure, it could help to boost confidence... but what happens if he says "Ick!" or he laughs or something... how is that going to help anything? 11 year old boys can be pretty mean and unfeeling.
