How can I get this guy to ask me out?

[Sophie]

I need help with guys???? Please somebody help me?
It's kinda long, but I really need some help with a guy.

So there is a guy that I absolutely love. I'm 16 and in 10th grade and He is 16 and in my class.We are both Christians. I've liked him for the past two years. We go to a private school so there are only 17 people in our class. we've kinda grown up together, but I didn't really get to know him until two years ago. Last year, we became pretty good friends and we talked all the time and laughed cause we sat next to each other in almost every class. I think he liked me last year cause well, he kinda always hung out with me and my friends. Then summer came and I couldn't hang out with him case we live like 45 minutes away from each other and at our school, guy and girls hanging out, even as friends, is kinda weird. So I had a party at the end of summer for the people in my class. He messaged me on Facebook the week before the party with a joke and we just had a really fun conversation. Then the party came and i didn't get to talk much cause, well to be honest, it was a little awkward. I'm really shy and it's hard for me to make the first move for anything. So I didn't really approach him at the party. Then school started and we didn't talk much still. Then my dog was mauled to death by my other dog while out at the store. I came to school in tears the next day cause the dog was EXTREMLEY important to me. I didn't talk to him that day, but I got this super sweet message from him that night saying that he was really sorry what happened to me and that I make him laugh everyday and that he thought I was a great person and was that he was praying for me. (He is a really great guy) So Then the next day almost my entire class left to go to this thing... it was me and then 4 other boys in my class, one of then being the guy I like. One of the other boys though was being really creepy and sitting REALLY close to me so after class I was telling on of my friends that he was creeping on me. Then that night i get another message from him saying he had over heard me and wanted to make sure it wasn't him. The next day I was just a little down and I guess he saw that and asked if I was okay, again over message. He then chatted with me on Facebook a lot saying he liked my hat and my coat and that I'm awesome and funny. He encouraged me to do the school play with him and then says I did awesome at certain events. I would then do the same. Most of the time though, the chats are just really funny. We talk about video games (I'm a geek) and stuff, and sometimes we just say random things. It's pretty awesome. I love talking to him. I talk to him at school too, but It's always a little awkward after we have chatted online. But we do talk at school (again almost aways cracking jokes). Do you think he may like me? I think he's a little shy when it comes to talking to me in person, but I am too. What should I do? I'm not really supposed to date, so I can't ask him out, but my parents would probably allow it if he asked me out cause they think he is a really good guy. How can I get him to ask me out? Just tell me all you know about what I should do!!! Just please any help?

Why don't you just ask him out

Ask on Facebook so there isn't the awkwardness

Hey, you needed help, I'm here. You answered my question a couple of minutes ago . I'm 16 and in 10th grade with the girl I love, like you. You're a really nice girl as far as I see. You two don't have reasons to stay apart . But I can say that he likes you too as much as you do him. So you have more chance than the one-sided loves. What I can say is that you should really come together and tell what you feel to each other. There's no shame to tell your love. If you two are really in a good relationship (laughing, sharing everything, sitting next together) then you can be very happy. He absolutely cares about you and loves you. You both can be shy but that doesn't effect your relationship. I think it's time to tell your feelings towards each other. Don't get afraid by asking him out. If you really wanna do ask him out, offer him to spend his time with you in your free time and then you can say whatever you want to say. I believe that you two are going to come together. I hope these could be helpful enough. Thanks for the advice again. Good luck )
