There's this girl at school that I like and I know she likes me as well. Her friends have told me that she likes me and I can also tell by how she acts around me.

She normally calls me by a nickname, (Ty) but today she called me by my real name. (Tyler) There was a point in time when she had a boyfriend and she obviously didn't like me and she would call me Tyler then, but she usually referred to me as Ty around the time she started to like me.

Now I'm thinking that she's gone back to calling me Tyler since that was what she called me when she didn't like me and now she's calling me by that because she doesn't like me anymore. Am I overthinking/overreacting?

I'm so glad I'm not in high school anymore.

because you are overreacting and overthinking.


Did I understand that correctly: She is calling you by your full first name and you think that means she lost interest?

Because like I said, there was a time when she clearly had no interest in me since she had a boyfriend, and that was when she called me by my full name. Now she's gone back to calling me what she use to call me when she had no interest and I'm freaking out over it.

I thought you meant by a totally different name. Like Jack or something, LOL. Now that would be bad.

No. It doesn't mean anything at all.

Don't. It means nothing. Ask her out. TODAY. Then you see how interested she is. Have some balls and go for it. If you fail, at least you know. Girls like guys who go for what they want.

I would definitely not want to date a guy who was "freaking out" over something so minor.

I would suspect low or no emotional intelligence, and perhaps a severe anxiety disorder that would be a pain to deal with.

Good grief, yes!

Take the bull by the horns and ask her out before someone else does.

I've always suspected that I may have anxiety of some sorts. I've just never got an official diagnosis.
