How do you tell a boy that you like him?

Is it even harder if he's your best friend?

I answer yes to the second question. As for the first... no idea. I guess that's why I asked.

Neil Perry is the cutest, funniest, happiest, and most outgoing person I've ever met. Actually, Todd might be his only competition when it comes to "cutest."

My problem is that, odds are, someone as happy and carefree as Neil simply must have a girlfriend. Or at least another girl friend. That he thinks about.

Anyways, I have no clue as to how I'm supposed to find out whether Neil has a girlfriend or not. Ha. That would make a fantastic lunchtime chat. "Hey Neil! Do you have a girlfriend? Oh, you do? Bummer, I really like you. Oh well."

...I am trapped.
