This guy i like at school is the sweetest guy and is perfect for me. the only thing is that everyone gives him a hard time because i'm jewish. they all make a big deal out of it and it seems he may not want to ask me out because he's afraid of people giving him a hard time even though he may have feelings for me. what should i do?

Hilary, the opinions of these people do not matter. This is 2006 and any bigots really need to grow up.
The question here is simple. If he doesnt ask you out because he's worried what these people think then he isnt the sweetest guy or perfect for you.
You deserve far better than that and if thats the reason he won't go out with you then he is losing out. Have more self esteem girl.

When you have religious differences it can be trying on a relationship because when trouble arise sometimes that belief system can redirect you back to where you need to be. If you have different beliefs, sometimes it is that belief system that will drive you farther a part.
If you are worried about what others are going to say and if you have to get him interested in you, then as a young lady you are headed in the wrong direction any way. Read the story of Ruth and how Rebecca's mate worked for her. Look for the same thing o.k.

Your religion shouldnt be the issue here. U should speak to him and make him feel ashamed for even hesitating to act on his feelings just because of some idiots in school. Tell him you thought he was different and see what he says. If he acts like the people in ur school then get away from him because no guy who is perfect for you will hesitate because of your religion.

If he is Jewish too, then you have nothing to worry about. If he isn't Jewish, is he really perfect for you? I would think your faith is one of the most important things to consider, at least it is for me. Of course you're only talking about a "date" here. You must be firm about your beliefs. Don't change who you are to please someone. If your faith is important to you, stress that. If he can't seem to get along with that, it's time to say "next!"

You need to have a hard talk with him. If he's not principled enough or man enough to put them in their place (or he's so concerned about what people think), then he's probably not worth it.
Actually, having the talk might not even be necessary.

If he likes you that much nothing should get in the way.
He should not listen to others if he does he's not the person you think he is
