Well you weren't too shy to ask her to prom.

Something I've found is telling a girl who may be interested in you too soon that you like her back is almost always a death-wish on your relationship (at least for some girls). If you haven't had prom yet, wait to see how that goes before you make any decisions. Better to play it naturally then get all tensed up about whether you should tell her something she probably notices (at least a little bit).

Just go about things in a normal manner, but do little things that let her know you might like her (stop by her locker, call her on the phone, ask her to a movie/dinner/coffee), nothing too major.

She'll definitely let you know if she feels the same way towards you.

Depending on how nice, 10-20 riels. If you wanted round trip that is.

You can't control your friends. Then you'd be just as much of a bitch as their respective girlfriends/boyfriends. The best you can do is say "I don't think you should do that" and tell them why, though they might get mad at you. If they don't listen to it, let them make the mistake.

Add 2 zeros.
