So I have a guy friend that I've been close with for pretty much all of high school and had an on/off crush for him. Well, I recently broke up with my boyfriend, partially because of this guy, but he doesn't know it. I just feel really close with him and can tell him everything. We just have this chemistry where we feel comfortable whenever we're together.
Just a few weeks ago, another girl told him that she likes him, but he doesn't really want a long term thing with her. I talked to him about it and he said he might hook up with her though because he figured there was no one else interested. I wanted to tell him that I like him but I just feel like it's too soon for him to have another girl friend say she likes him. We're graduating soon and I'd figured I'd tell him then but he's already taking this other girl to prom and I feel like I'll lose my chance if I don't let him know.
The other thing is that a lot of people in our grade have been asking if we're going out lately and it just makes it harder for me because by reinforcing to other people we're not going out, I keep saying to his face "No, I don't like you...we're just friends" when that's not really what I feel.
Could someone just help me figure out if he likes me or not and if I should let it go or tell him?

You should tell him how you feel...or show it! If he says stuff like "who would be interested in me?" you should say "me". Be honest w/ him if it comes up again. Life is about taking risks and requires you to jump. You don't want to regret not telling him and wonder about it. Give it a little more time though to see if he gives you any hints towards a relationship w/ you, or not, in his words or actions, tell him. Good luck!

Well someone else does like you" then after he says who say "i do or me" I think theres a chance he could like you because hes comfterble talking to you about things but does he flirt with you. If so then flirt with him. Start flirting with him because then it will give him hints that you like him. Tell him that you like him befor you lose your chance. He's single right now this is your chance so take it. Dont be scared to tell him because if he doesnt like you like that since you guys are really good friends he will probly continue to be your friend.
