  Well...

  i can agree with you about boys to an extent though, just because like all my friends are boys...sounds slutty ain't but yeah its true i can talk to guess easier than girls. We are to blame as much as boys are if you really think about it...if it weren't for you for texting this "boy" if he wanted to have sex maybe he wouldn't have started a rumor. And yes it was wrong of him to start the rumor and stuff, but its a guy thing...and yes i am a girl...but maybe you should of thought just alittle bit when you text him...

  The biggest thing wrong with boys is that they are immature. Therefore, they are boys, not men. They are only worth seeing if they have sense in their brains.

  Okay...I'm saying this from a mom's point of view that has both a son and daughter, and as a former 12 year old girl. Boys are less mature at 12 years old (and for that matter any age, compared to women), although their hormones are kicking in right about now and they think they are "all that". They don't understand how to flirt, discretion, nor can they handle an ill timed joke. Now, as a former 12 year old girl, I advise never to joke with boys/men about sex at any age. It only leads to trouble, miscommunication or worse. Sorry to get motherly on you but no one (boy or girl) should be talking about sex (regardless if it is a joke) at age 12. All a 12 year old boy has on his mind is the attention he'll get from his peers when he spreads the rumors around about you. He is not thinking that this is hurtful to you at all. Even if you tell him 12 year old boys rarely have the maturity to be empathetic, correct their behavior or apologize. As for you, I suspect you didn’t send the text simply to see what he’d say. You sent it to get his attention. Well, are you aware that you succeeded? You’re just are not getting the response you wanted.

  The harsh reality is that you did send the text and what he thinks of you now is totally up to him. His perception is his reality despite your attempts to straighten out the miscommunication. Your reputation at this age should be protected and it is up to you to do that. Don't go there with the texting/jokes if you are not prepared for the outcome. Remember boys, and even girls at this age are more interested in their status with their peers, then how they've hurt their peers. Sometimes they behave badly and it is hurtful but it is part of this age. We all learn from these kinds of mistakes so don’t let it get you down. Just be careful with the words next time. I promise this will blow over and no one will remember his story in a few short weeks. By the way, if you like a boy and want to know if he likes you back. Most boys respond well to simply being honest (no jokes) and telling them to their face. Even the ones that don’t know you exist will suddenly realize you exist. Good Luck!

  well, all i can say about boys is, "PROCEED WITH CAUTION!" they get freaked out very easily. id say girls/women often try to understand baffling behavior from the opposite sex. the freakout could come from the fact that he saw you as a friend, and you obviously want to be more than that, but he just doesnt see you that way. i'd give him his space. a lot of it.....and start focusing on some other hot guy.

  I remember when I was in school that it didn't take much to get guys excited. They were always teasing you or laughing at you because they were trying to cover up the fact that they really liked you. But when you are that age you misread it sometimes as maybe they DON'T like you. I'm glad those days are over!!!! I still run into too many men who are very immature. Wish I could find a grownup!!!
