Welcome to Gaia! ::

but I really dunno what to say to him.

In 6th grade we were in the same (lets say)after-school class and we started talking to eachother. He goes to the same school, but it was always hard to talk to him there instead of the after-school thingy. So I didn't say anything to him during the whole school year, even though he waved to me in the hallways.

The next year we weren't in the same after-school class and I was really upset, because I was really starting to like him. Even love him. And because I never said anything during regular school, it became akward to even greet him. also last year he got himself a girlfriend. Some talkative very unattractive chick. I became mad at him and decided "why love someone who doesn't want you?"
but I did love him. I am in honors and he is regular-ed...so I am not in any other class besides gym with him.

This year is really weird now. We always catch eachother's eye and are in the same after-school class and gym period. He is so depressed lately. He was allways a very upbeat crazy kinduh guy. Now I see him alone and just want to go up to him and say hello and give him a big hug sad

Monday I see him for the club and I am thinking about just asking him about why he is so depressed (possibly because he doesn't have a gf and he has been asking a lot of people....including me....once....but it wasn't very meaningful...)

I just want a friendly way to begin talking to him again w/o his first reaction being "does this chick love me or something?"

So you just want to be friends with him? Just talk to him, no I know how hard it is I'm not stating the obvious razz Ask him "Hows things?" or "You seem a bit down lately". If you're careful not to give any mixed signals then he'll just be happy to have a friend and shouldn't think that your in love with him.

goobie, ps. I can't say I haven't seen him in a while I see him all the time. He says a few words to me...like 3 sentences a year. But I freak out and don't reply. I said hi once or twice on my own.
