Dear Annie: I know this awesome guy. Let’s call him “Luke.†We’re both teens, and we see each other because our little sisters are best friends and our dads get along well. I really like Luke — a lot. He’s very polite, kind and funny. My problem is that I don’t know if he feels the same way about me. There are times when I could almost swear that our feelings are mutual, but then he says or does something that makes me feel unsure. I really don’t know what to think. Any advice that you have is appreciated. — Confused About Feelings
Dear Confused: Shoot your shot! Ask him out. There’s a very good chance he feels just as you do. And if not, he’ll be flattered, and you can move on, knowing where you stand. Let us know how it goes.
