He may like you but only as a friend. Unless he spends a lot of time talking to you he probably does not like you the way you want.
Then what should I do because I like him should I just forget about him and put him in the back of my head or what well like we danced to the song called "Your Everything"by Kieth Urban at homecoming but after we danced I gave him a hug and said thank you for the dance and he smiled and said your welcome but after that he hasn't talked to me or smiled at me or anything so should I just forget about him and try to find someone newQuote:

You should just try and find friends. You're what 14? You don't need a boyfriend at this point. Make lots of friends, boy as well as girls.
How can I make a lot of friends when I am not popular and yes I am 14 then why does everyone else seem to be happy with there boyfriend and everything and it seems like every one has boyfriend besides me is that wrong?? And I really only have 2 close friends
Not everyone is happy or has a boyfriend. It only seems that way to you. You are only 14. You have plenty of time for boyfriends.
OK well do you think that I should go to the winter homecoming that is on January 19th by myself or should I ask a friend to go with me
Either is fine. The more you get out the better your chances of making friends
Okay I guess I will go but isn't homecoming about dancing with a date and if I go by myself I won't have anyone to dance with will I

When my god-daughter went to Homecoming she went with three other girls.
There will be guys going solo too, and those are the guys you dance with.
You're really young. My son is 14, and he's never had a girlfriend, he knows he's not ready for that, and frankly, he's having too much fun hanging out with his buddies, and getting to know people. Why settle for one person when there are literally hundreds of people to just be friends with?
You may think that everyone has a boyfriend or a girlfriend, but they really don't. Even if they are "dating" at 14 it's just hanging out, it's not really dating, they just call it that.
So go out, have fun, and stop worrying too much about having a boyfriend. Trust me, none of the "couples" that are together right now in your age group, will be together in a year. Wait and see.
Okay but my best friend is going with a guy so I will feel out cased because everybody will be dancing won't they and I won't be and my other friends aren't going so wouldn't I be an out castQuote:

My goodness you say you are not popular but you're worrying about the possibility of someone you may not like asking you to dance. He's asking you to dance not date.
If you don't want to dance, you graciously say no.
There are plenty of people who will go and not have dates. Probably more guys than girls.
You go and talk to people maybe dance and just have fun.
I don't think it's unusual for a Junior guy to date a Freshman girl at all. At some schools there's a stigma but from talking to my son and his friends, it's perfectly fine at their school.
I would say that, regarding the dance, either go with a boy you have feelings for, or go with a group of friends and without a date. Going on a date-but-not-really with a guy you think of as just a friend is awkward. Unless the guy has a shot with you, go with a group of kids. If the junior boy likes you and you like him and he asks, go with him.
Okay I will go and just have fun but okay there is this senior kid that goes to my youth group and he talks to me all of the time and like he sits by me and everything and he is a really nice guy so should I ask him to go to homecoming with me as friends or should I wait and see if he will ask me
Ask him. Tell him that it's just a friend thing. Who knows, it may end up being as more than friends down the road.
Just ask, and have fun.
Okay I will ask him and well since he drives a car should I ask him to pick me up or should I say my dad will drop me offQuote:

But it isn't a date it is just going as friends and if I ask my parents they will say no because they don't let me do anything but they do know who this guy is and they know the parents so maybe they will say yes but I am scared to ask them and see what they sayQuote:

Okay I will ask them and if they say no should I still go to homecoming or just forget about it
Don't do anything behind your parent's back because it will backfire. They will assume the guy is a bad influence on you if you start sneaking around. So ask if they are OK with him picking you up, and if they aren't, ask if they will provide you a ride.
As a parent of a high school senior, I can tell you that when my son starts acting sketchy about things, I turn the screws and tighten up the rules and boundaries. When he's acting honestly and following family rules, I give him a lot more freedom because I trust that he's being upfront with me.
If you end up wanting to date this guy, it will be really hard to ever be allowed to if you start by irritating your parents in how you go about it.
Okay thanks I will definitely make sure to ask my parentsQuote:

Wonder woman, Batgirl, Isis, Storm, Black widow.. Google it. You can find a lot.
Okay where do I find a costume for one of these superhero women that isn't to expensive because I only have $34 to spend
Look at pictures of the costumes and put together something from what you have. Or buy a few pieces. Use your imagination.
Okay I guess I can do that thank you
Can I ask you another question okay why is high school so boring what can I do to make my high school years more enjoyable because I feel like I am just going through the motions and it isn't fun and people say high school is the best years of your life enjoy them but I don't know how to enjoy them when it is boring so how do I enjoy them
Join some clubs. You're in your first year. The freshman year is always kind of rough. It gets better.
I hope so because right now it is pretty rough
Like I said get active, join some clubs. It does get better
Okay
Well last night was homecoming and it was really boring why am I now wishing I never had went
