Would it seem as if. . . .

Well, I'm afriad of getting into a relationship with him because he is a senior and he will probably be leaving for college. He used to be like my brother, and I told him nearly everything. He knows so much about me, and I know so much about him. Being more than friends would seem awkward.

How old are you? Also, I know what you mean by awkward. But, doesn't it suck that we can't control who we fall for? If we could, it would be so much easier. Its like you really like the person but yet cannot see the two of you together because of circumstances.

Is he going out of state for college? If he stays local, maybe that would help?

You are already "more than friends" if you are messing around with him.

But is she messing around? I mean if they are just playfully flirting thats one thing, but if they are making out and doing sexual stuff, its another.

We just flirt around, nothing more. He lives right down the road from me. And I think he is going to a college about 2-3 hours away.

Ok, but how old are you?

Also, maybe its best not to get involved more then you already are.

But to answer your initial question, if you are seriously interested in karate, then join. If not, and are only doing it to be around him, then don't. Unless, you really want something to happen.

I'll be 15 in 17 days. He's 17.

Ok, right now thats a stretch because Im guessing he will be 18 soon. But in a few yrs, it really won't make much of a difference.

Maybe you can just keep in touch as friends until then.

Sorry, my mistake. I thought you said you guys mess around, which - to most adults - means you are sleeping with him.

He will be turning 18 over the summer. And I plan on keeping in touch with him, I couldn't imagine forgetting him.
