I'm a soph in HS and I'm going out with this guy I like. I got an email yesterday from this other guy who goes to my school saying "I really like you and I wanted to ask you out but I was too scared and then you went out with Mark and I'm too scared to do it now. I really want to go out with you but I don't know what to do because I've never gone out with a girl before. Could you please like tell me or something? I really like you." I kinda like my boyfriend but he really, really likes me and I don't know what to do. There's this other guy I like but I can't ask him if he wrote the email because I'm afraid I'll scare him off. The name the guy used in the email isn't his real name.
I'm really beating myself up over this what I should do? I can't just go on without doing something because this is the 2nd time that boy has sent me an email like this. I kinda feel sorry for him but I can't help him b/c I don't know who he is? Should I reply to the email? Help please!!!

Well, I don't think I'd ever break up with someone just because I got a puppy dog email, from an anonymous person. Be kind, tell him that you are with your b/f but if you two call it quits than he should ask you out. I'd also offer the poor guy some advice on what girls like to hear when being asked out. He needs some confidence in himself.

...you don't know who he is, he said "kill me", and this is the 2nd email?
honey, it sounds like he's a bit overzealous and this could easily escalate to something close to stalking. I say something close because this is high school puppy love and when you don't reciprocate the feelings it can get kind of creepy. Stay with your boyfriend and tell this guy that you're not interested. He sounds kinda crazy...
if you don't know who he is, how did he get your email address?

Reply to his email and ask him to reveal himself. Tell him you cannot respond until you know who you are dealing with. Once you know, it will be easier to figure things out. You're very young; don't tie yourself down to one guy. Go out in groups with your friends. That's a fun (and safe) way to date.

if you only kinda like your boyfriend then it sounds like you are interested in going for someone else....just tell mr. email that you may be interested if he tells you who he is...but you need to be honest with your boyfriend dont lead him on so he can be second choice

You should reply to his email and ask his name so he won't be shy to know that you're interested.

Write back and tell him you only go out with guys who have enough guts to speak, and not write silly, wimp-like e-mails. And especially to say who it is, otherwise out outright weird.

Tell him you will answer his question if he tells you who he is like a normal person.
Go from there as your heart tells you.

If you only "kinda" like your boyfriend, then dump him and do what you want.

It's a prank. Ignore it.
