How tf do you know if someone likes you back?
So, basically, me (14M) have been talking with this girl (14F) for 6 YEARS. We met in 5th grade and all that. The thing is, this year and last year we became much closer after a fight we had over something silly.
The thing is, lately I'm starting to feel things for her. Like, she's so fun to be around, we sit together at lunch break, and we have calls on Discord, WhatsApp, or whatever to play daily.
She looks super beautiful, she listens to me, we've both vented to each other about our problems, and I'm her best friend, and she's said to me that I'm her only true friend since, well, the group kind of separated as vacations started, and only us two still speak daily to each other.
Anyways, the thing is that she's always said that she wants a nice, faithful, and overall long relationship, since the last one she had was some guy from a higher gradethat cheated on her. And here I am, I want to give her all she needs and be the best boyfriend ever.
But, here's the catch: I don't know if, when I compliment her or tell her nice things or indirect things, she just says "Jaja ta bien," since, well, we both speak Spanish, duh, which would translate to something like "Haha that's okay/good/nice." I don't really know. The thing is, I'm not sure if that's a way to evade my compliments or if she doesn't know how to react to them, because I don't know how she talks to her ex.
And no, I'm sorry, but I'm not brave enough to ask. Most likely, if she gives me any indication that she wouldn't mind being with me, I'd confess first.
I DONT WANT TO BE FRIENDZONED AHHHHH
