His joking all the time might be away of covering up his anxiety too. The best way to tell someone you like them is in your comfort zone. If it's on the skating rink, dance floor, restaurant or school lunch. tell them you care about them.. If they laugh. It's not your problem.. This guy might be the love of your life.. and you might let him slip away by being timid.. Your not the only one who might experience rejection. Do it enough and it becomes easy. lol. Then again. He might be happy you made the first move! Good luck!

Try considering the possibility of "love" being a chemical that is manufactured in your brain. Boys and girls go through what your going through all the time, and then they finally get over it. If you think you love the guy, try visualizing where you two could be in about 5 or 10 years. Add in the fact that most American relationships don't last very long and also understand that a high percentage of marriages end up in divorce.

Why don't you ask him out on a date? Maybe he feels the same about you, or maybe he will if you go out. If he does, just let things happen naturally and be yourself. Don't talk about "love" right away, it might be too scary for him.
Sure, he might turn you down, he might even make fun of you, but I have found that rejection itself isn't really as bad as the fear of rejection. If he is mean to you, he's probably a jerk, and you don't need him anyway. When I was young, there were girls I liked but I was too shy, and then I thought about for a really long time and finally got up the nerve and got shot down and I felt terrible. I found out later that it was better to just get it over with. If I waited too long it got much worse because I built it up in my mind. If I just came out and asked her right away, and she rejected me, it wasn't as big of a deal. I was disappointed, but it didn't hurt so much because I hadn't invented some image of her that was unrealistic. Sometimes I asked them out, and they said yes, and I decided later that I didn't really like them so much. Sometimes I did and it was fun.
I had girls ask me out a few times, it was a huge ego boost for me, because I was usually shy and didn't really feel very attractive.
Live life while you are young--you won't get a chance to try again when you're old.

it should be flattering to him to have some one feel this way about him. if he does not feel the same....it may hurt a bit but you can not help how you feel. however, is he mature enough.......is that why he jokes about everything? It would really hurt to have someone laugh at you when you tell them something as serious as this. good luck but always remember we only live once......go with your heart!!!!

Then you should wait to express your feelings. Wait until you feel more than love- wait until you feel secure, emotionally secure, confident, and happy. If you're afraid or fearful, it's not love- yet.
