I've recently asked this wuestion before, and I just wanted some new answers.I hope you guys don't mind.
Alright so me and my best guy friend, we are close. Close as in he tells me mostly everything. He's such a cool guy and I love him to death. [I'm not sure if I have feelings for him, I'm sure I don't] Well, people at school always tell me that he likes me, but I usually don't believe it. But lately he has been acting strange around me. Yesterday night we had a party thing, and I asked him if he wanted to dance[It wasn't even a slow song, and I wasn't trying to make a move or anything.] And he goes, and I quote, "No. I mean do you know how akward that would be later? I mean we are in the same math class." Yes we are in the same math class, and that seems to be the number one problem. If I ever ask him something in a friendly way [Like do you wanna dance?] he always uses the excuse that we are in the same math class as a way not to do it. But he always dances with my other friends and has a good time. But refuses me. I don't understand what's going on with him. Does he have feeligns for me and is trying to hide them? Or does he just not like me at all?
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
He are sone things he does to me [and some only to me,] if this helps. In the hallways he will come up behind me and hug me or put his arm around me and hug me for a second. If I ask for his sweatshirt he will give it to me. He always teases me, but never puts me down. He sits behind me in math, so he will always try and talk to me or he'll poke me or something. Today he was making fun of the tan lines on my back [I'm a swimmer] And he always looks for me. Say like before practice we go to Randalls, he will come in there looking for me for no apparent reason. But he will still discuss things with me about other girls and tell me what he thinks, whether they are "hot" or "ugly", or pretty or nice and whatever. And he always tells me things that I should do, like dye my hair or soemthing.[It's mostly about my hair. He doesn't do it to offend me though]. Hope this helps with my/your analysis.
When I was reading your question, I was convinced that he might only want you as a friend, but when I saw your added information, I was completely confused and I have no idea what to think. And luckily, you don't really have to worry about his feelings for you are because you are pretty sure that you only like him as a friend.
I think what you should do is keep being his friend and if he's not going to be man enough to dance with a girl who happens to be in his math class, then that's his problem and it's a really immature excuse. It makes me think that he doesn't want to dance with you, so he thought of a stupid excuse to use to keep from dancing with you. But, I don't think you should try defining his feelings and keeping standing by him as friends. Don't try to analyze his thoughts and change things.

But other times it seems like he might be trying to hide his feelings. If you don't feel like it would make things too awkward later on, try asking him how he feels about you. Just be like, you know, i was just wondering where we stand, in our friendship, relationship, etc. If you don't feel like thats a good idea, don't do it. Maybe it's better that he's just a friend. Maybe he acts this way simply because he doesn't know how to express his feelings to you beyond your friendship. He might even be afraid to like you, because he doesn't want it to hurt your friendship. Really only he knows how he feels about you. Good luck!

RealisticWench answered Sunday April 30 2006, 4:45 pm: That's so strange. some things suggest that he does like you, and others that he doesn't. I think he might like you as a good friend but nothing more. That's why he might not want to dance because you might get the wrong impression/it might make things awkward. I think the best thing to do is to ask him why he wouldn't and what being in the same class has to do with anything. [ RealisticWench's advice column | Ask RealisticWench A Question ]
