How to say goodbye to your crush
You've had your eye on him all school year and now summer is here. You'll go your way and he'll go his. Summer is awesome, but you can't help thinking that it will feel like FOREVER until you see him again. How can you say goodbye for the summer?
This question came in from Anonymous. I think it IS hard, especially if he's been a secret crush. If you don't normally hang out, then it may seem weird to create a big goodbye scene. I think you should find a way to tell him two nice things. Maybe compliment him on something he's good at - sports, playing an instrument, doing karate, whatever. And if the conversation is going smoothly, also say "Have a great summer!"
It's simple, not too dramatic, and maybe will be a nice start to a friendship you can pick up on next school year. And who knows? Maybe you'll bump into him over the summer!
Any other crush farewell advice for Anonymous?
Think pink!

Thank goodness. I have been waiting for an answer thanx Jamma. I hope that since my crush is on a swim team and since my dad knows him I can maybe see him this summer. And maybe I will find a NEW crush u never know :)
Maybe something like this-
H-him
Y-you
Here-
Y- School's finally out! (Don't say it directly to him. Kind of say it out loud to anyone while your right beside him)
H- I know right,
Y- (to him) no homework, no teachers
H- Totally (his bus gets called he has to leave)
Y- See ya. Have a great summer.
Thank you for answering this, Jemma! My school will end really late this year and I still have a while, but I'll be thinking on how to say goodbye to him. I'm just really going to miss him. :'(
I have lots of time to work up the courage to say goodbye. We had snow days... and hurricane days!
U can always call him n txt him daily to keep in touch. U can also video chat sometimes so u can actually c him
Okay, so I've never had to deal with this, but I'll give it a try.
So, I would say, "Have a great summer!" to him and maybe give him a hug. If you don't already have it, ask for his contact information(phone, email, etc. ) so you can stay in touch.
How to see him during the summer:
Have one of your friends to ask your crush what activities he's doing over the summer (swim, basketball, volunteer work, etc.) They will tell you and you can sign up for it too. (I don't recommend asking him yourself, but you can if you want to. It will make him suspicious that you like him if he doesn't know already, in my opinion.)
Hope this helped!!!!!!! :) :) :)
I never said goodbye...and now I feel heartbroken.
@Rosemary B.
I hate that feeling too! I hope your summer life is good!
Help! Whenever I see my crush smile at another girl, even next to another girl, I get REALLY jealous! Is this normal for me to be like this? I know it seems weird.
@Anonymous Okay,so maybe you can keep in touch online? I do that with my crush. Also, you and your crush can meet up during the summer as well. When you meet up, you guys would have more memories together and talk about that often. You guys would be closer and stuff. Just casually ask him on Facebook or something like,"Wanna go to the park?" I also do that with my crush. It's a little bit awkward, but then you guys would be closer!
@cRe8tive Okay, I get that a lot too! It is perfectly normal to feel like that. I know how you feel. During track and field, him and this other girl kept on running off to go find this girl, let's say her name is Patricia. They kept on running off, and I kind of had this squirmy feeling in my stomach and just was kind of like, I want to be that girl. :/ But, yeah, it's normal to feel like that. I'm sure everybody feels like that a point in their lives.
Hope this helped!
@ cre8tive
Actually yea. Here is a story I used to have a boy I really liked since 6th grade but he liked another girl so I was SO>>>> jealous for a while. I think its normal because you like him and you want him to like you too in my opinion
coolgabs1216
Dear Anonymous I know how you feel but you know what. You might see him over summer like you said if he maybe lives close to you. And also you might get over him,and you might see him next year. But what's most important is that you have your family. hope this helped!!!
guys have u ever had 2 crushes? I have. One I do not see much and he is in 7th almost 8th (like me) and he is dark skinned. But at school I like this guy with light blue eyes kind of dark brown hair and freckles he is light. Am I the ONLY one who has had this happen 2 me?
Thanks, everyone who answered me! There's this one girl (she pretends to be all "let's be pen pals!" and silly but then she is serious just like that) who calls my crush her "father" which is just plain weird and I feel like she's steeling him away from me. :(
You should get his number and ask if he wants to hang out sometime. Become good friends first, maybe flirt a little. Show off your great personality and be confident. Then slowly work your way into letting him know you like him more than a friend. If not, then back away and remain friends for a while. Maybe he will see what he is missing! Good luck!
jemma can we have an international music celebration week? Its where we talk bout our favorite artists and where we have trivia and music quizzes.
:) :) :)
This guy who likes me said "Have a great summer" to me at the end of the school year. Totally ok to say. Also, I gave my phone number to the guy I liked but you don't have to cuz we were already close friends but a nice way to stay in touch! Or email address or any type of contact. Good luck!

IF ITS A SECRET CRUSH THEN DONT SHOW IT OVER THE SUMMER AFTER YOU MEET HIM NEXT START HINTING UR FEELINGS TI HIM
Try to get your crushes phone number another way try all your friends for his number
coolgabs1216
I know I like Nick Malenda but he was kind of LOCO not to have a harness or anything
OK, well I have a crush, and my friend is crushing on him too and he says that he likes her, not me but he still wants to be friends what should I do?
Oh, and Nik Wallenda is not loco, he is just very,very,very,very daredevilish.
Lol Chloe. I du admit he is a daredevil

My parents Escpecially my dad drive me crazy sometimes. They are great and supportive just sometimes I get so annoyed with them my dad..... So is this normal.... I'm A teenager. :(
Anoynomus
It is totally normal its because of our hormones. Sometimes we act like we normally wouldn't but it is normal at this age
Oh thanx blue99 hormones..... :/
Hey guys I want to ask u a question are u left brained or right brained? right brained is where creativity is so right brains are more creative. Left brained people are those more logical people aka math science and language?.
Answer if u want .
I'm right.....
Ps. R u guys bothered bi answering questions?
@Coolgabs1216
I actually took a test on that this year and it turns out I'm left-brained! And no, I am definitely not bothered by answering questions! It's fun, actually! :) :) :)
Thanks For Answering Jemma!!!!
Love you for that....
I know how it feels heartbroken....
My Crush and I are just good friends...
I do like him alot.....
Thanks.........
@Coolgabs1216
Sometimes I think in Spanish and I get good grades in school, but I also like creating things. So I think I am a little bit of both.
coolgabs1216
I think im middle brained, maybe slightly toward the left, but mostly middle. :)
Try to act casual, and good luck!
A few days ago at camp, my new friend said that someone at the camp REALLY liked me. She's pretty serious, so I don't think she was kidding me. I have a slight idea on who it is, but I don't want to be wrong. THIS IS SO SUSPENSEFUL!
have him sign your yearbook
Write something funny in his yearbook! Every guy likes a funny girl!
I've done this saying good-bye 2 a crush b4 it's hard! Believe me! Just act casual and most importantly don't get emotional! Even if u feel like crying because won't c him for 2 months or more depending on what school u go 2. Good Luck Darling!
xoxoxoxox<3
just be true to yourself do what you need to do. good luck :)
be cool trust ur heart
my scool-crush brain has turned off. Now my summer camp-crush brain has turned on! SOUNDS WEIRD>
Whatever you do, don'y make it mushy. Guys in my grade, hate that stuff. If he is your crush make it super casual. If he's your boyfriend...that's different.
So I went to camp forgetting about my crush at school, and met some new friends. One was a crush, the other was just a good friend that was a boy. Now camp is over, and I cried again about leaving. :'(
If you guys are on the phone dont say oh no you hang up first back and fourth just say ok bye ill can you later
If a guy asks me for my number, I'll just feel awkward because I'm still not used to having my own cell phone. I'd probably not remember my number, accidentally give him my home number, or just not answer my cell phone...
This has happened to me only he kinda doesn't know I like him but on the last day of school I gave him a friendly hug. IF you have yearbooks you can always look at his picture day and who knows you might get over him.
This happened to me when my crush moved away.
Hi my name is missdiva. I know how it feels when you don't say goodbye to your crush .it happened to me so we even . just tell him that you love him and you're his four letter word
one time my crush is staring at this other girl and I was very jealous I know how you feel. and I thought that he was in love with her but they're just friends . and we never ever dated but that won't happen to you you'll get your man.honey child boo trust me you will get your man one day I promise you that . love you bye bye sweetie have a good day . ; always remember let your heart be your guide don't give up on your dreams
don't be shy girls tell him how you feel . be happy and excited that you are going to see him in a week . love you remember love is strong
jemma,
how do i know what type of boys i'm interested
in? my friend keep asking if i like good boys or
bad boys. when you have a crush are you supposed to think about if there bad or not?
its very hard,,,,the words just jumble up inside you even a simple sentence for example 'hey how are you' I do that a lot and I cant help it someone help me
I know hey its hard
@purplemadness: Honestly I dont think really about that but some people do. what i would say is "I dunno what type do you like?" you can always put the question back on them. hope i helped!
My crush and I went to church 2gethr. I liked him for over a year, but now he doesn't go there anymore, and neither do I . Bsides, we live ,like, an hour away from eachothr. Its so sad, and not only that, but I told my best friends that next time I see him, I would tell him how I feel! ugggg, its so hard being a teenager
I know how u feel girlie! the boy I like and I used to go to church 2gethr, but his family stopped going, so I nevr c him. he could b dead for all I know!
Wow! That's hard! HARD. But if you have friends over summer, its easy to forget about boys. But, what if you really thought you were getting some where? Here's an idea: leave a MEMORABLE year book note. How about a "See you next year." surround by a cloud with a wink face? If your feeling brave a heart with your name in it!
I have a crush too but im not sure if he likes me and its almost the end of the year
I have a crush and he doesnt know and its about to be the end of the year
I was feeling brave this year so (since he was single) I kissed my crush on the last day it worked out and now were dating!
Wow!
OK OK OK I know exactly how you feel about good boys and bad boys. You love the pipped jeans messed up hair wild eyes in a bad boy. But good boys you love the nature of them and their sensitivity
to your hurts . But bad boys are sooo sooo cute uggg life is confusing . My crush was like soo bad boyish. his spiked blond hair and his ripped jeans and the long swims in the lake and the time we snuck out to see each other ahhh bad boys.
Tomboy
I know how u feel I had the same question well I didn't even say goodbye to mine I am moving so I am never going to see him a gain . so u should probably just say bye or even tell him how u feel before u loose him.
I hope I helped
I know how you feel! My crush normally smiles at other girls. I recommend becoming good friends and speak to each other. ;)
Become friends first and if that works then try to get a little closer. Or get your parents to invite their family over for a barbeque.
