I like a new guy a lot and he sits next to me what do I do?

Don't believe her. friends are mean and always going behind your back to steal your boyfriends. girls can't be trusted especially your best friends. what you gotta do is leave your friends and go out with this guy you like. you know the one that sits next to you in all classes. you know how in clueless, cher wanted to get noticed by that cool guy. she would wear revealing clothing and send herself flowers and chocolates. that should definitely get his interest. maybe invite him over to watch a movie in your parents room. don't forget to make cookies!!! let dionne help you with your hair and makeup.

I don't know any details about your friend telling you Shane likes you, so I am going to leave that out of my advice.

From what you tell us, it sounds like you guys will have a lot to talk about in a conversation because of your similar interests and a lot of time to do it since you are near him in so many classes.

I think you should try to strike up a conversation with him, asking him questions that reveal more about himself. Please check out the flirting articles on this site, I think they will help; link
