I realllyy like this upperclassman?

No matter what anyone says it really depends on the situation (Since you know best) Just be yourself and have fun. I'd go to the party, just be careful. Since your new to the whole High School thing, you might be shocked about some things. Your not in junior high anymore. Try to get past your feelings for him and see about his character, who he hangs with, etc. I'm not trying to scare you, just hoping that you don't get scared too because something unexpected happens that reveals who he really is. Maybe he's a good guy, I don't know, but it never hurts to be a tad careful. Especially since you've only been on the high school scene for a few weeks at most. I'm a junior too and there have been some freshman that have caught my eye. So if that makes you feel better. It's possible. Just be yourself. If he doesn't like you for who your are then feel free to scratch him off the list. If that's not good enough, then nothing is. Just know your on his turf. Hope I helped. Give me feedback if you feel like it. I'd love hearing from you and how it's all going.
P.S.- try not to take what I said too hard, just don't want you get hurt left hanging, that's all. I actually care.

This is just like what I got going on, but I'm a junior and she's a freshy.
You know there really isn't anything wrong as long as both of you guys are on the same page.
If he asks you out go for it, but set rules and standards.
Not all guys just want freshman girls because they are so called "easy", like
me this freshman girl is truly an amazing girl, and you know I don't want to take
advantage of her or nothing like that!


Good luck!

I generally don't think freshman should be dating higher than 1 grade level. Things just seem to get complicated if they do. The older boys have more experience, and often times the younger girls don't, so things, as I said, get complicated.

If you're intent on trying to get this guy to like, though, you need to act yourself. If you try to get him to like you, nothing good will come from it. If you pretend to be a certain way to make him like you, it will mean nothing, because in the end he would have fallen for a girl who doesn't exist.

Be yourself, or don't try at all. The second you start TRYING to get someone to like you, it's almost 100% reality that the relationship will end in misery.

No you're not too young. Tons of my guys friends were dating underclassman before I graduated. Guys mature slower so maturity wise it's not a bad match. But experience wise, you have to be so careful. You learn and go through a lot in 2 years of high school so make sure you're a confident girl who will stick to her values and not be pressured to do things just because he's "older."

Second of all, not trying too hard to make him like you will actually cause him to like you more. He'll be wondering why you ( a younger girl) isn't tripping over herself for an older guy's attention. Just be friendly and laidback and let the chips fall where they may.

Ok this really isn't an answer but last year I was a freshmen and had the exact same problem, and like you this guy liked my friend who was also a freshmen. He dated her so I was bummed and I was all excited cause I'm transfering schools and I could totally forget about the whole thing and find a new guy to like. Anyway turns out he is transfering there to so I'm in the same boat as last year. Best of luck! Don't make the same mistake I did if he is giving hints he likes you and gives you the perfect oppritunities to tell him that you like him take the chance that's how I blew it.
