Ok, so I like this guy. We are both in 7th grade. I'm not sure if he likes me back, but I think he flirted with me a few times. I got my friend to ask him if he has a girlfriend, and he doesnt. I want to ask him out but I don't know how. Please help me!

Dear 7th grader,

Before you ask him out, you need to hangout with him a little bit. Maybe in a group of friends. By hanging out with him, you can try to get stronger feelings for him and see if he has them for you. Then when you're confident, you could talk to him (preferably in person, not texting or calling or passing notes) and tell him you like him and you'd like to go on a date with him.

Hope he likes you back (but if he doesn't that's okay!)
