Q - Dear Annabelle, Thank you for reading this·.I like this guy in my school·He's a bit of a geek (I mean this in a good way), smart, Internetmonkeyish.. I never really talked to him but I gave him paper once.. (Pathetic, yup) (I don't even know his name) I get really nervous around him· Today, I needed a quarter to call my mom and he was the only one I knew that was left in the school·so I asked him and he bought a candy bar to give me the money· I don't know if he likes me· I can't tell but he didn't seem nervous. Does smiling mean anything??? · I'm planing to give him the money for the candy bar since he had to suffer for me· I'm not sure if this will seem pathetic· I hope not· HELP! A - Dear Dee, Itās a safe bet that, if heās a geek that he doesnāt do really well with girls...unless, of course, girls are now getting as smart as you seem to be. (Remember, Bill Gates was a geek and look where HE ended up!) Guy generally like to do things for girls so you seem to be on the right track. As youāve heard me (read me?) say, young men have hollow legs and really like young ladies who know how to cook and who have the brains to bring freshly baked chocolate chip cookies to school. (Just one or two......think ĪElliottā E.T.) Of course, if chocolate chip isnāt his favorite, you can ask him what heād like for you to bring NEXT time. go slowly and things will develop at their own pace. Have fun! (Oh, and donāt be using bad language around young men..it makes you sound coarse and you wouldnāt want to offend him!...yes, good quality young men DO have standards.) - Annabelle
