Question Posted Wednesday October 25 2006, 5:52 pm

15/f
I like my brother's friend (17 years old), and he's really nice to me (says things like "You're magic" and "You're on fire") and he always opens my doors.

But he doesn't look at me much (unless he's talking to me)...even when he's sitting directly across from me, or when it's just me, my brother, and him. When I point something out to my brother, he looks at where I point but doesn't look at me.

By the way, he's very outgoing.

So, why doesn't he look at me? I'm not sure if he hates or likes me. And, could he like me?

i think he does like you. i've had guys that liked me that would talk to me and not make eye contact at all. it drives me nuts. if he does like you, he probably just likes you so much that he's nervous. good luck :)

tell your brother about it. also be honest to your bro that you like his friend. seek help to him in being close with his friend. then if he's enough that confident with you, ask little questions about him... something will sure make up...

Hmm... maybe you should talk to him. He might be to scared to look at you because he likes you. I know when i really like someone and dont think they know i dont look at them. I doubt he hates you, especially if he says your magic or on fire. im like half a year younger than you, but trust me i know what im talking about. i liked my brothers friend. hes sixteen, im fourteen. i wasnt sure if he liked me and i never talked to him about it. i just dont like him anymore and recently found out he likes me. if only i would have talked to him about it. he doesnt hate you, and yes it is possible for him to like you. hope i helped, luv,

Well, I think he likes you back, but in either case, do you really want to be the first one to *approach* the other? For example, if he has mutual feelings for you, and you approach him one-on-one, wouldn't it look desperate? And if he's just being nice without any special interests involved, you'll feel like an idiot telling him how you feel.

I think you should stay cool, don't try to push things. If he's interested enough to risk pissing off your brother just to be with you, let him be the one to say it. That way, you never put yourself out on a limb.

Good luck B-)!!

He could possibly like you ; I've never seen brother's friends just act that way towards their sister on a regular basis to just be friendly.

The reason he probably doesn't look at you that much is because he probably doesn't want you knowing he likes you, let alone your brother. Friends tend to have a little code thing going between them to never date their friends sister. So he just might be worried if your brother suspected he liked you or something, he'd get mad and not want to be friends anymore.

Don't worry ; it doesn't sound like he hates you AT ALL. If he hated you, he wouldn't be saying cute things and holding doors for you ; he'd be slamming them in your face!

So just try talking to him more and make more eye contact so he has to look at you, and see what happens. If nothing happens in front of your brother, try hanging out with him one-on-one or talk to him privately and see if he tends to loosen up whenever your brother's not around.

I hope I helped.
