SO UM my best friend (guy) whom I like is confusing. In math we sit next to each other. And he held my hand and said "is this friends?" But then my friend Julia was like aww and I responded to him and said SURE (I felt really stupid after that)he held his hand there for a good ten seconds before moving it. He's also very "touchy. There's moments when he could make "moves" but he never does. My question is, does he like me? And if you believe so, me , being a girl, how to approach him?

So guys have no more clue than you. If he held your hand, that means he has an interest in you that goes beyond friendship . This could be called flirting but my guess is, he is just testing to see what response he gets, to obtain the information he wants, whether you like him now as more than just a best friend. this is how some of the best relationships start, as best friends and move on to the romance part eventually. He doesnt know if you have an interest in him. You said "Sure" but you didn't mention if you've given him any signs that you have that kind of interest in him also. If you don't, it's best to tell him you don't. Its not something you can change if you dont' have the right kind of chemistry for the romantic part.
If you do want to explore this with him, tell him you are starting to like him as more than a friend and you are wondering if he is feelings the same. If he says yes, then work on seeing each other away from school, maybe hang out at each others houses or if you are old enough to date, go out together. There is no reason why a girl can't ask. Good luck. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
MsCece123 answered Thursday January 29 2015, 9:45 pm: I would say it's definitely flirting... so I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and say that he likes you! But... I don't think you should "approach" him. I think you should continue to be the friend that you are to him. Don't try and make something happen. That usually KILLS relationships. I know it can be awkward when he comes off as a little forward but, remember he's your friend. So you don't have to feel so awkward. Hoped that I could help. Thanks!
