Help....just help

Elizabeth • Hey I’m Elizabeth. I’m on a dance competition team and I have 2 dogs.

I really like this kid named parker at my school. I’m in 6th grade so flirting is roughly translated to being as annoying as possible. I’m not like that but he does it to me. I want to tell him but I’m terrified that he doesn’t like me (or at least won’t admit it). And he’s best friends with my ex. I mean yeah I’ve had boyfriends before but matt was my first actual boyfriend. We did stuff together and it really hurt when I got dumped. So I don’t know what to do and right now I just want some opinions.
