Tilly Talks: Lonely Girl

 Feel free to email your questions, concerns, suggestions, comments and/or embarrassing stories to [email protected]!

Dear Tilly,
I really like this one guy, but we’re just friends right now. I would love to go to homecoming next week with him, but he hasn’t asked me and I’m scared to ask him if he’d like to go. I don’t know if he feels the same way for me as I do for him, and I really don’t want to lose this friendship if things don’t work out. How would you suggest that I deal with this situation?

Sincerely,

Lonely Girl

 

Dear Lonely Girl,

You’re not the only girl in the world with this problem, but every girl out there needs to understand that it’s 2014, which means that us girls can speak up and ask someone out too. This is just an idea, but your friend might be a lot more interested in a girl who can take the first step. If you’re really that scared to ask him, consider dropping a few hints here and there or flirting a bit. By dropping some hints specifically towards him, you won’t be risking your friendship with him as much as you would if you told him you were interested in him. If he is interested but scared, then hopefully he will pick up on your hints and ask you himself. If he doesn’t pick up on your hints, you two can still go to the dance as friends. Homecoming is not just for couples anymore; it’s also for friends.

Sincerely,

Tilly
