i have a small dilemma.
so, in options i'm in musical theatre, and there's this one guy in a grade older than me that teases me and makes me laugh - you know, normal boyish friend things. well, today we had to set up for the musical and miss an entire day of school. him and i are both in props, meaning we basically had to work together. one of my friends, "k", told me something that got me really upset. yes, it was about another boy, but that's out of the picture since i'm telling everyone i'm over him. anyway, this guy - G - saw me upset and asked why. i said it was nothing, but he insisted he knew something was up even after i tried to laugh. he wouldn't stop until he got an answer, which to this very moment he still hasn't. he started threatening to hurt himself if i didn't tell, so at that point i was trying to snatch everything he was using. i thought it was just a joke. i was wrong. he used a boxcutter we were using and actually pushed it against his skin. i immediately tried to get it away from him. we "hate" each other, so at first i thought he wouldn't care. but he did. he kept saying it was stressing him out and at that point i was like "oh my god." my friends had always told me he liked me; i never believed them. but today, i saw something different in him. not the "makes jokes and laughs a lot" but the "i'm serious. i actually care". i mean, yes, he's attractive, nice, funny. and yes, i knew i kind of liked him. now it's on a whole other level. he cared so much. even his friends say he likes me. problem? i don't want to know if he likes me. i'm so self-concious and i think if i confessed my feelings people would laugh and tease me. he's a grade older after all. i'm so confused right now. i guess i'll update the situation tomorrow since we're doing the same thing.
