I've never really liked anyone before, so I sort of tried to brush it off several times whenever my heart jumped when he touched me or put his head on my shoulder (!) or whatever. I know how easy it is to mistake things like that for attraction, especially when you're in school and all this other stuff is flying around.

But I don't think anyone generally has repeated romantic dreams like holding hands or cuddling with a guy you're close friends with (my first excuse) or have a sort of maternal instinct towards (second excuse).

And he has at least two other girls who like him, and I met one of them today, and I do think she's okay but all I could do was point out her flaws in my head and think about how incompatible she would be with him. That's a bad thing.

So what do I do? I'd like to go back to having my weird, random dreams already. Should I tell him that I like him?
