Grr...I know it's another stupid love question...sorry There's this guy in my History and Math class that's very popular and goodlooking. Recently, he's been acting different around me. Unusually nice. He complimented on my shirt and necklace, and asked how my tutoring was coming along, etc. He's also lately been acting really cocky, but in a playful way. I don't know if he's flirting. Does it seem so? Because I'm confused as to whether I should flirt back. He has a girlfriend, and that might make me look like an asshole (I don't have a crush on him at all, by the way). Also, if he wasn't flirting I would look like an asshole. What do you think I should do?

If you aren't at all interested him, there's no point in flirting with him. What are you hoping will come from this? That people will notice that the two of you flirt and you'll bask in reflected glory of his popularity? That is highly unlikely to happen, even in the strange world of American high schools.
If you like him and think he's interested in you then it's a different question, about whether it's worth flirting with somebody who you think likes you but who is in a relationship. If that's the case, it's something you just need to weigh up the risks of against the chances of nothing coming of it. If as you originally claim though, that you "don't have a crush on him at all", then I can see no reason at all for flirting with him, as all that is likely to happen is that you'll annoy or hurt his girlfriend and yourself end up confused by his behaviour and why you are flirting with each other when you aren't interested. You can be nice to him and enjoy his compliments, but there is no point entering into something that isn't going anywhere, even if it is 'just' flirting. ]
He might just be being friendly. If you're not interested, don't flirt back - especially if he's already seeing someone. Things might get a little dramaesque, you know? I'd be friendly back, but be a little guarded in case something strange is going on. ]
Yeah, he's flirting with you. If he's a tall statuesque man, he's not going to care how your tutoring is going. So that's definitly a small-talk flirt. But if he has a girlfriend, that makes him a jerk, because he wants to cheat on her! So if I were you I'd giving him a royal caning!
I love you,

Well, knowing that he has a girlfriend and that you dont like him, i suggest you should leave the sitaution alone. He seems to be flirting, but remember, if you dont like him, then dont get involved. ]
