this guy is confusing me


Question Posted Tuesday December 26 2006, 12:33 am

this is really long but interesting!! okay, i'm in 9th grade and he's in 11th. i know that there isnt a chance of us getting together..not much anyways but i can still really like him =P but anyways the things he does confuses me. like he puts his arms around me-in a nice way, hugs me when i don't expect it, has a nickname for me,says i'm pretty and cute sometimes, and stayed after with me twice even though he was going to get in trouble. once was when i was really sad (long story) and at lunch he noticed and even my bff didn't notice at all. so he waited for me way after lunch just to walk with me to class and made sure that i was okay with his arms around me. the other time was when he would've gotten in a lot of trouble. he's a drum major and our school's band takes everything so seriously. i'm in strings btw. but anyways, we had a little school concert for the middle schoolers and after that, he was suppose to go to the band room right away but he walked with me to strings class anyway..well almost there becuase the other drum major appeared in the hallway and in a really strict tone told him to get in the band room right then and there. all those things he did as i've mentioned above gave me a sense that he likes me butt...when the drum major appeared, he took his arm off of me immediately as if he was embarrassed to have his arm around a 9th grader? or maybe it was because he didn't want the drum major to think he ditched band for a girl. idon't know. and right before winter break, i asked for his number (in a friendly way. not a 'omg i luv you!' way) and he wrote i don't know. but they may have been because there was the jazz band playing 2ft away from where we were at lunch.

anywhos, does anyone have a pretty good guess about as to why he wrote "i don't know" and took his arm off of me right away? do you think he likes me?

the age difference doesn't matter at all in my opionion. my best friend started going out with her bf when she was in 9th grade and he was in 11th and they're still going out. but maybe he is embarassed because he doesn't want his friends to think that he has to go after someone thats 2 years younger than him. i know a guy that acts the same way with my friend ( 2 year age difference too ), but he flirts with a lot of girls too .. & he's just like that. so maybe he's just a big flirt, or maybe he does like you & he isn't really interested in a relationship. & for the time when he took his arm off you right away, maybe he felt awkward in front of the other drum major because he was with a girl when he was supposed to be somewhere else. & for the "i dont know", maybe he is just a flirt & doesn't want to lead you on anymore. maybe he realized that he led you on and wishes that her didn't. i really have noo idea ... just play it off and ask him if he likes you or if you guys are just friends. the best way is just to ask him & get a straight answer out of him =]

Hmm.. my gut tells me that this guy either 1) just sees you as a "little sister" or 2) is a loser who can't get girls his own age so he flirts with girls 2 years younger than him to make himself feel better. I think both of these scenarios could fit in your story. If he only saw you as a little sister type friend, that would explain him not wanting to give you his phone number. Maybe he felt bad about leading you on and didn't want to lead you on any further by giving you his phone number? Orrrr .... on the other hand.... maybe he's embarrassed that he can't get a girl his age, and he would never be caught dead with a 9th grader in front of his friends, so he doesn't want you to have his phone number because he'd be embarrassed if somehow his friends found out. Either way you slice it, I don't think this guy is boyfriend material. He may like you, but if he does, I don't think you deserve a guy who' acts embarrassed to be seen with you by his friends.

Well...let's see here:
-He puts his arm around you
-He seems embarassed?
-He wrote i dont know?

Well it all adds up to me, he may just wanna be a friend. Here are some ways to tell.

1) He might've taken his arm off you quickly because he didn't want the band teacher person to think you guys were "you know".
2) See how he acts around his other girls that are friends. Does he act the same?
3) Don't ask him for anything personal like his number. Be mysterious but flirt casually and only sometimes!
I hope I helped and good luck

i think this guy REALLY likes you as you can tell by the way he is with you. To me it sounds like if the older people in his year find ot he likes you, they would ake the mic outta him. i have been in a similar situation myself. The best thing to do is be straight with him, ask him does he like you and is he embarrassed ? Nobody can tell you how he actually feels apart from him. Good Luck hope i helped :) xxx
