So, theres this guy.. he is only in one of my classes this semester, but i've known him forever. I don't have a crush on him or anything, but hes a cool guy to just hang out with. He is the kind of person who would pick up my binder if I dropped it, make a joke to make someone smile, or help me with an assignment if I asked him. Otherwise, he is pretty quiet at school. Whenever I see him at least. I don't know what he does on the weekends, besides avoiding his parents and hanging out with his buddies.

He sits at the back of the class, and he tends to keep to himself unless he is with his few guy friends then he shows his real personality. We tend to get along well when we do talk. If anything, he would be like a fun brother to me.

Around the beggining of the year, about two months into school he decided to ask me, when I am sitting alone on the bench with no one around, if I wanted to be his escort for Grad. I said yes :) I was kind of surprised he would ask me and so early in the year, but I was thinking he would be a fun guy to go with (plus hes one of the actual nice guys). He smiled and then we talked about what color of tux he would get and what I was going to wear that would match.

Basically I am wondering if the reason he asked me is because he likes me or he asked me when we were alone for he didn't want his guy friends to know, and/or he wanted to ask me before someone else did. Or if he just asked me for some other reason.

This is now three months since then, but should I sit beside him next semester if we are in more classes together? I don't want grad to come and all of a sudden it is a little awkward. Actually, I think it should work out for we both have good personalities. How do I know if he does likes me? We are both 17.

I was thinking when it gets real close to grad I should smile and ask him 'so why did you want me to be your escort?' :) Hmm, please answer all my questions and tell me what you think about him asking me :p

I think he asked you because he likes you i don't think he would of spoken up and said something if he wasn't interested in taking you or didn't like you yes i do think you should sit beside him and get to know him better create conversation and see where it goes i think the two of you will get along
good seeing as your both the same age and you've already been talking to one another i don't think it
would be awkward also think it's a good idea to ask him why he wanted you to be his escort and see what
he says it's worth a shot i say go for it maybe he'll give you a good answer you never know it's better to try and if for some reason things don't go well you'll still know you tried instead of doing nothing and you end up regretting it later on(:
