Sixth and Eighth

(Hallstead)

Okay, so I'm in sixth grade. I used to have a crush on two of my guy-friends... But then found out that it was more of a deep love of friendship when I really searched my feelings. Anyway, as you already know I am in 6th grade. I have developed a major crush on an eighth grader. I mean he's nice and everyone says we would be good for each other. I told one friend, but told her that I didnt care if the entire school knew; as long as my mom didn't find out because she thinks dating is waste. Well, my friend decided to take that literally. She's always telling people, which I don't mind considering that the sooner he finds out the better. Though today when we were walking upstairs from chorus, she yelled out "Hey Skylar there's your man!" Which looking back was fairly funny, but he looked over and saw me... I was so embarassed. The one that said that doesn't want me to like him; but she has a boyfriend. Now, I honestly don't see the point in dating either in Junior High, but I really like him. And also another one of my friends used to have a boyfriend who was in eighth grade and I think she likes another guy in that grade who likes her back, I'm pretty sure anyway. But the guy in 8th that I like Let's just call him *** has a sister in my grade. So I feel a little guilty about liking him. But I'm just going to get to one of my MANY quetions. (And I've never dated or like someone, bare that in mind). Why do you think my friend said she doesn't want me to like him anymore?
