This person has a crush and is confused how to act about it.

Answered Submission
Hello, Darling! I understand; it's not easy having a crush and being unsure of how to act about it. Rest assured, though, I have advice for you. I think you should slowly start trying to get to know the guy first. I get that you like him and all, but you have no idea how he would interact with you—not his own friends. You need to try to get to know him yourself. From then on, you can decide whether it was a fleeting crush or if you're in it for the long run. If it is fleeting, then just continue to try to be friends, because there is no harm in making more friends. If you feel for him more deeply afterwards, then slowly build your friendship into one that you both can value; then, you can decide whether or not it is worth risking your friendship to try for more. In the end, there are so many ways you can go about this, Darling. Whichever way you choose, just make sure to follow through with it 'till the end. All the best to you!

Love and best wishes,
