He is 17 and she is 22. I think he still likes me as he still mucks around with me and looks at me even when he is standing next to her. Vanessa Vanessa, you can't know what is in someone else's heart. Only they know, and only they can tell you. You can, however, waste a lot of time wondering instead of going forward with your life.
Nothing is lost by knowing, nothing is lost by asking and sharing feelings.
You need only have the willingness to accept the answer, because it may not be the answer you hope for. There will be many men in your life, men who can never become the right man for you. If it turns out that your friend looks on you as a sister, or values you as a close friend, that is a wonderful relationship to have. Don't throw that aside because you would like to turn the relationship into something it is not. You can't force a key to fit a lock.
