Should I tell him how I feel?
There's a guy I've known for 6 months now, and I really like him. He's admitted to me that he liked me when we first met, and I feel like he still does. He's constantly saying I'm pretty, a great person, out of his league, and even said he felt like I should have been there when he and his family decorated their Christmas tree. He treats me like a princess. I've kind of told him how I feel, I've told him all about how much I like "this guy" and basically described him, just never said his name. The only problems are that he's 14 while I'm 16, and we go to different schools but live in the same area. Also, my friend has known him longer and likes him just as much. She said he liked her before, and he gave us both gold lockets. Hers has diamonds and it's smaller than mine, while mine has flowers on it. Last night, I told him I'm not sure if I should tell "the guy" how I feel and he said "I think you should. I don't see how it could turn out badly. I mean, you said he was 14 and the chances of you dating weren't very high (for now at least) so, I don't know, if you're feeling brave..."
So, I feel like he may already know, but I'm not entirely sure...

Well.. Make it completely obvious that it's him without actually saying it - I mean so he'll definitely know.
mean,
"you said he was 14 and the chances of you dating weren't very high (for now at least) so, I don't know, if you're feeling brave..."
This is what worries me.. if he knew it was him and definitely wanted a relationship with you then I don't think he'd add anything negative.. And if he didn't know it was him and did like you - he wouldn't tell you to go for it.
really, you need to make it absolutely obvious that it's him without actually saying it - I mean so he'll DeFiNiteLY know. Then ask him what you should do. If you're positive he knows and he still tells you to go for it then go for it. Tell him how you feel.
If you're positive he knows and he tells you it's a bad idea or something.. Then don't bring it up again.
the only other worry is your friend.. But I guess if he likes you and you like him then.. That shouldn't be a problem because it wouldn't have worked for her in that case anyway.
Another thing you could try which could answer both questions - ask him how he feels about this friend. If he likes her. Best to leave it to them and don't bring up your feelings for him. If he doesn't like her - you're in luck. You don't have this friend to worry about and you can then ask if he likes anyone else. Start questioning him.
Well good luck! Sorry that was lengthy! :)

He knows. Sounds to me like you're meant for each other. It is time to tell him how you truly feel.
