I only see her once or twice a week, and when I do, we chat for a little bit. I often notice her glancing at me, or if she notices me looking towards her, or when I see her looking at me, she smiles. Sometimes she holds her gaze for a little while, and sometimes she looks away.

Like I said, I really love her!!

I had not seen her for a while, and then I saw her last week, and we talked for a little while, and (sometimes) I tease her a little bit. I said I had not seen her for a while, and she said it has not been that long, it's not like anyone was counting. I said it was about 5 weeks, and then she said well maybe someone was! If I tease her, she usually just jokes back, and she never thinks I am being mean. And once I was standing, and then she came over next to me and bumped her hip against me. And started talking to me. Does she like me?

I am not allowed to date yet, (I am 17) I know don't say anything!!

But I don't want to make her think I don't want to date her, because I do!! So how do tell her I like her, and would like to date, but can't. I would hate it if she starts liking someone else!!

And I usally only see her at church, not the perfect place to tell her I like her.

I really could use some help!!!!
