I'm new here, but I LOVE the books!!! I've even read the adult versions My question is about a guy. I've known him my entire life, since I was 6 weeks old. Families had get togethers and sleepovers(his sis and I were/are best friends) till we were about 12. We lost touch for about 7 years but reconnected over Facebook. The past 7 months he's become my BEST friend, drops EVERYTHING if I need to talk, if he can't he ALWAYS calls me back. I can talk to him about ANYTHING, things that I would discuss with girls, but it's NOT awkward. I'm totally comfortable around him. Sends me sweet text messages at 7:30 in the morning. He's complimented me on my eyes and violin playing and other comments. However, he's a BIG flirt I finally got the courage up to tell him he needed to be more careful abotu what he said to girls in the compliment area. I said it gets our minds running overtime. He said thank you for telling and he would try to be more careful. He says he's not interested in anyone at the moment. But what he's been saying still makes me wonder. He'll say things so only I can hear and looks at me weird(in a good way). He took some pics with my camera of himself and I was like, "why would you do that?", "Just cuz,be glad you have them those are rare.", "How do you know I like them? I could be annoyed that you filled my camera.","Oh, you aren't, I know." Things like that....argh Very confusing for me. My problem, I can't see myself with any other guy. Yeah I know I'm only 19, but they say you know when you can't think or even consider any other man. I admit it, I'm not considering any other guy, my heart feels liks it's going to burst with happiness, there's a possibility he's going to TX for college and I've cried and cried over it. When we've hugged(not a side hug) I felt at home, complete...sounds cheesy I know. When he hugged me I just wanted to cry. I never thought I would say this about him, but I LOVE him to death as a best friend and more It's totally different than other crushes, it's not a crush...it's more than that. Do I wait for him to make a move, am I completely crazy over this guy? I've talked to other married friends and they say they know what I'm talking about and to be careful. But single girls out there, have you ever felt this way??? Have you felt this way and then it all changed and now you're "crazy" over another guy??? Whew, that was really long....sorry about that. I just needed to get that off my chest. OH, his sister and her boyfriend, me and this guy are going to go through FYWO and FYMO and discuss it...I'm sooo excited :)

First off...I'd say wait for him to make the move! Hard!!! But if what you said is really what he said, it sounds like he knows you like him...and maybe he likes you too :) I don't think you're crazy :) Just don't let your heart get too far ahead. Cuz it's really hard to bring it back and have it not be broken!

I'm 19 too, and single tho I have dated. One guy I was head over heals on. We weren't dating, and at one point he said we had to quit talking because we liked each other so much but didn't agree on religious stuff. I didn't think I'd ever get over that! Two months later I met a guy and was crazy over him! haha I never did forget the first guy tho...and actually a year later started talking to him. We dated a little and broke up for the same reasons as before and now I don't like him at all!

Not saying that's going to happen to you! But it can happen, given time and space you will realize it was your heart ahead of your head! The heart is the hardest thing to keep control of! Just when you think you got it in reasonable bounds, a gate breaks somewhere :p

Clare, thanks!!! I've really tried to protect my heart, but I guess I need to do a better job. Yep, they're gates EVERYWHERE! I keep talling myself he'll find another girl at college and marry her. Space, oh dear, I don't want to even think about him going to Texas :( I've never dated or courted, haven't found the right guy. I really wish God would say, "okay, here's who you're going to marry." and I wouldn't have to worry about this. Yes, I know He is in control but it'd be nice to have a name from him :)

haha i agree clare...
Gosh honest, i was just in a similar situation... and, I had just told god i was giving guys over to him, and then I met this guy at camp, and I didn't pursue talking to him or w/e. but he was constantly talking to me etc... long story short, we became good friends, we live 2 hrs apart... and I thought it was going well... and then... about a month ago... he posts on his facebook the exact details about how he just proposed to his gf.... basically I was crushed... haha. so idk, guys aren't always what they seem. and sometimes i wish they'd just be a man and tell you, but arg... idk.

oh and don't worry lol. I'm basically over it now, but i guess it took that to make me realise that I can't just assume and give my heart away :P

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

God Bless!
Mwah XOXO

Just gonna say that I think that's kinda funny, because the one girl I've known my whole life (Who introduced me to the For ___ Only series.) and think of each other as basically cousins and the thought of being more than friends with her is super awkward.

And also... I have felt that way about a girl... and yeah, in that case, it was kinda obvious she wasn't the one, and it's taken a lot of work to stop liking her so much, but it hasn't gone away yet. So yeah, the heart is a rather precious possession that people take for granted... and it likes binding once and for all.

Most of the nearly two billion children in the developing world have inadequate access to dinosaurs. Some receive no paleontology training at all. One in three has never even seen a dinosaur in person.

OVPC is an organization providing a means to an end - an end that sees children in even the most remote regions of the globe being given the motivation and adrenaline to tap into their own potential, identify with the survival needs of a global dinosaur-driven culture, and to contribute to a paleontological world community.
