Compliments are great ways to brighten someones day and make them feel better about themselves. Just make sure that you are being honest. And just being thier friend will help too.
well also thats just the thing i dont want him to get the wrong idea or anything cause right now i like this other guy and i dont know if he likes me and i dont know if my friend…ya u get the point its confusing.
cause i dont know how he feels bout me and idk i just dont want him to think somthing and then him get hartbroken or somthing like that.

Some people are naturally insecure about themselves. Our society places so much emphasis on the way we look that it is hard not to be somewhat insecure if you are not “perfect” looking. I would just be there for my friend and compliment them from time to time. But just keep them grounded too. Don’t inflate their ego or anything. It is great that you care enough for your friend to help them out but for the most part all you can do is just be a good friend and whenever they get down on themself just give them a reality check and put them back in the right frame of mind.
what happens though if he takes my “comforting” the wrong way though?
what should i do then?
What exactly do you mean the wrong way? Are you afraid he’ll think you like him?
well idk maybe somthing like that.

Well it is only natural for a guy to think that when a girl “comforts” him that maybe she and he might be about to get it on. The only way for him to know that isn’t the case is to be open and honest with him. Don’t flirt or tease just comfort him when you think he needs it. It is never easy for a girl and guy to be friends without becoming interested in each other a little bit. Hormones are a pain sometimes.

just let him know and maybe find him a girl friend if that will help
i could try.
i just wish i could know wat people were going through sometimes or just know there thoughts sometimes.
i mean he has it pretty tough at home.
Just be there for him when he needs you and let him know that you’ll do just that because you are his FRIEND. It’ll make him feel good to know that he has someone to lean on. If he starts to think that you like him then the best thing you can do is just be honest with him as soon as you start to notice because the sooner the better.

true very true
I agree with ScarofLo18, just comfort him and if you think he might think that you like him, just gently clarify

yeah i should tell him and make it clear were just friends but how do i tell him that without saying those exact words?
cuase it would be pretty embarrasing if i got the wrong idea that he got the wrong idea. he doesnt open up very much, a very shy person with a hard backround.
I understand. That’s a hard one but if I was in your situation I would probably tell him that his friendship means a lot to you and you hope that you’ll stay friends forever. Maybe he’ll catch on.
yeah most likely he is a good guy he find one for himself one day, or wat do u call it his “one true love”. well i hope he does i feel so bad for him.
Maybe you could introduce him to new people that share the same interest as him. Guys and girls. Meeting new friends are always exciting to people.
yeah thats a good idea all of u have good ideas thanx for all of u giving me advice.
its good to have someone to talk to when yrr confused bout things.
