Question Posted Saturday February 19 2005, 2:03 am
Okay, I liked this boy named Max for a while and then he was an idiot and I stopped liking him. He keeps coming up in my head and I am so obessesed with him and I don't want to be this way at all. I try not to think about him, but everything I think about some how relates back to him.
Anyways, recently I got an AIM from a guy claiming his name was Joe and he saw my picture from my friend Rem (who doesn't go to our skool) and he thought I was super hott. I asked how he knew Rem and he didn't remember. Joe said he lived in some place far from me and he really thought he had no chance with me. Once he mentioned he heard about my "boyfriend" which was a joke I played on Max a long time ago and I began to think that this "Joe" guy was really "Max" playing a prank on me. I told Joe that I don't think he's telling the truth on who he is and he just needs to admit hes Max. He finally did and then he denied it again! I just know it's Max and he AIM's me still being Joe and flirts with me all the time. Why was he such a jerk to me and now flirting? Is it just a thing between him and his friends to make fun of me? Or does he really like me? I'm so confused and I really need help! I'll rate super duper good! Thank you for bearing with this super long question and I'm sorry!

To me, it definitely sounds like a)Joe is Max and b)Joe likes you.
If Max didn't like you, I think that he would have admitted being him quickly. I think that this was Max's clever way to tell you that he liked you. That's good news!
And though he was a jerk in the past...maybe he deserves a second chance??
Good luck?

Well, you did say that this Max guy was an idiot, so I do think that this is Max diguised as Joe. Disguising yourself to talk to someone when you like them is a little immature, and that sounds like the kind of idiot you were talking about.
Anyway, he might be flirting with you now because he might have noticed that you like him, maybe cause he caught you staring at him one day, since you said you can't get him out of your mind.
He also might have realized that you are a really good person, and he might think you still have feelings for him.
I really don't know if it could just be his friends and him playing a joke, so that's why I would tell you to wait before trying to openly confront this guy.
So, it's really not that confusing; but you might wanna pay attention to him, and find out who this Joe guy is because there's a chance it may really be a secret admirer.

If you ignore "Joe" for a bit and Max really starts talking to you more... then its Max.
This may be a prank but it may also be Max's way of playing hard to get! Maybe he doesn't know how else to talk to you and get you to like him back, so he does this!
I don't really know (since I don't know the guys) but I hope this helped!
