AM I GOOD ENOUGH?

I have a big crush on a girl at school but can’t act on it because of lockdown

DEAR DEIDRE: I’VE had a big crush on a girl for a while.

I’m a boy of 13 and she’s older than me, in the year above at our school.

 I don't know if she feels the same way about me

I’m friends with a guy in her class and I sometimes hung out with that crowd.

I was trying to work up the courage to tell her I like her a lot but then the school closed, the lockdown began and I haven’t seen her for three months.

I think by the time I see her again she’ll have forgotten who I am.

Should I tell her? She’s really hot and I am worried she might be out of my league.

DEIDRE SAYS: Let her be the judge and don’t put yourself down.

Start by being a friend before you go on to declaring your love.

Can you make her laugh?

Do you like the same music and films?

Take it slowly, one step at a time.

She’s only one girl and you have plenty of time to find someone who is right.
