He's really into baseball and he's pretty sporty. We're in 8th grade and his birthday is in January. He's pretty sarcastic but in a funny way and he's really smart. I have no idea what he thinks of me because in 6th grade I was really mean to him, but I've been nice ever since 7th grade started. I'm friends with one of his close friends, and the others don't really like or dislike me. I have lots of trouble Talking to him and I think he may like another girl. I'm at a loss of what to do and hoped getting him something may help me boost my confidence and help him to either like me more or hate me less.
