Hello, the year almost end, no one can stop but you can stop what I'm thinking right now. I have this question in my mind. How will you answer a question like this : Who is your crush? And the one asking you is your real crush. Will you nod or deny? I really don't know, what I'm sure of is I will really blush and feel nervous. It is a nerve wrecking for me. It's no sense telling it directly and no sense denying it. I am confused. Maybe some of you here can give me some advice. Thank you. (Based on friends experience who is younger than me for 15 years). Please help me.

I feel like going back to highschool answering this question now... But if I was asked directly by one of my crush that question... I would probably just smile and not tell him. I wouldn't give a name and I will say that it's best to keep it with me only.

Just be honest, there is no harm in it. If he has a crush back on you, well and good your hooked. If he does not, buzz him off, there are better people to have crush on. Atleast you'll not waste your time drooling over him!

Nice answer Bamboee, If I and the discussion starter had that guts I would surely tell the guy... who knows they feel the same with us right

exactly my friend. I have really learnt this this lesson in life, that life is too short to hold back on what we feel. We never know what we miss out on! best of luck!

The best answer for ANY question at ANY age is complete honesty. I am a great grandmother; several years (25) after we graduated, I was informed by an admirer (who never spoke up) that he was afraid to ask me out during our high school years. Now we both wonder how our lives might be different - not that our lives are so difficult or bad now, but one always wonders. The answer to your question is: If my main crush back then had asked I would have said, I may be dating someone else, (in my little hometown anyone would know who the someone else was) however, I am very interested in you as well. I have found during my lifetime that honesty really is the best policy.

Try to ask him also why is he asking it. I think he also like you that's why he ask that. If he answer he is just curious or something like he is interested in your crush then tell him the truth. I think liking someone is not bad. It is just a crush,it means you just admire him because of his physical appearance of his good character.

If I am in your situation, probably I won't tell her. I would just smile and tell here "secret". Lol. There are times that when you tell the truth, the ending is awkward. Sometimes, it is good to just keep it to yourself first then say it to her if the time is right.

i will pretend to play a joke on her/him and tell her/him that my crush is seemingly far away but actually close at hand.in this way i think you will not blush and feel little nervous.when you get on with each other for a long time,she / he can feel your crush is none other than herself /himself. if your age gap is too big ,you need to take it seriously to start your relationship .wish my advice can help you

I remember the days of crushes and the people who I had them on. Yes, I was asked by the boy who I had a crush on years ago and I laughed and said "You." The boy asking was caught off guard and blushed then realized I had answered him with a laugh. He couldn't decide if I was serious or kidding. The with the same laugh type talk I said, "And who is yours?" He couldn't talk at that point and realized he was more embarrassed than I was. It took several days before he stopped me in the school hall and away from all our friends. He quietly asked me if I had been serious with my answer and I said, "Is it important?" He said, "Yes, because I've always liked you just have never had the nerve to tell you. I'd never have said this in front of the gang because it would be just too embarrassing. But if you meant it, I'd like to ask you out on a date." We were puppy love after that for about a year, and still friends to this date and this is over 50 years later. Both of us married other people, but we still laugh when we see each other because we know how we were many years ago. This was the way I handled it and it turned out good, but I know others that weren't so lucky and ended up being teased and embarrassed because of it. Good luck to you and I hope it works out for you.

I don't answer the question if I am asked especially when she hate to hear that I will say she is my crush. Some stranger who is long forgotten might just cut it. Telling the truth will end the conversation short and feel awkward afterwards. Lying at first then admitting when time is right could be an option.

Hello gaea, If this question is asked to me by him, I would also probably last blushing like an idiot and just keep smiling or try to change the topic. But, just in case, you would want to keep it to yourself, then it is better to answer it with a blank smile. If you want to reveal it to that person, then probably you can say, look into the mirror or the person whom you see when you look into my eyes or something like that will do
