Question Posted Saturday February 3 2007, 11:20 pm
Basically I have begun to really really like my guy friend. I am 13/f. He has gone out with 3 of my girl friends but they always dumped him because they stopped liking him. I have liked him for months now and seriously think about him 24/7. We flirt alot and I was wonderring if you have any ideas on how to tell if he likes me other than just asking him. These are things that he does that make me think he does like me:
I catch him staring sometimes and when I do he'll smile back and stick out his toungue (i know childish)
I am of mixed race and when people bug me about it and call me names he'll defend me and get them to stop
Sometimes he'll trip me for no reason
He always says hi to me in the hall
When we talk we have total eye contact (never wavers)
When we talk we'll usually end up shoving eachother and touching eachother
When he says something mean (even if it was a joke) he'll say sorry afterwards
If he's talking to the guys and I walk into the con he'll acknoledge me immediatly
he shows concern when im upset and kind of demands a reason why and such
Sometimes he'll put his arm around me for no reason
Reasons I think he doesnt:
He flirts with my friend who dumped him last year
If people say we look like a couple he'll suddenly run away
If people say were flirting he'll yell something like "Stop Flirting With Me" or "AAH Shes trying to Rape Me"
We walk to our buses together and whenever he approaches his he'll see the guys then run away screaming
He says rude coments when people say "we should just go out" such as "Oh ya like Shes sooo wanted" in a mean sarcastic tone
I have no idea if hes just being a good friend or maybe likes me! Any signs? How could I find out?

Well, I was going to tell you to make a pro's and con's list but I see you already did that. I think some of your cons are ways of him flirting with you, like.
"If people say were flirting he'll yell something like "Stop Flirting With Me" or "AAH Shes trying to Rape Me""
that is a sign of flirting. And also, you guys are only 13, trust me, boys will be boys.
And us being mature young ladies with handel it in a mature way, like posting your problem so other females can help you out. I think he likes you if that helps. I REALLY think he likes you, shoot if I knew you and I see the way you guys are talking, you really are, more or less going out.
Ask him if he likes you, dont just sit there and wonder. ANd if he likes you, then talk it over with your friends and get the okay from them to go out with him, that is if you want to.
I hope i helped. let me know how things turn out. good luck!
Sincerly,

To me he sounds wicked funny especially when it came to the reasons why he didnt. Guys are all like that, cool sometimes, but absolutely immature all the time. lol. When guys dont want their guy friends to know who they like or they are just simply shy about it then they'll act like they dont like you when their friends are around. It's the typical guy thing, they all do it. He sounds like he likes you overall, but then again you have to consider that just because he does all of that doesn't mean he likes you in that way. I have a guy friend who does pretty much the same thing, but he is like that with a lot of his friends that are girls. Some people are just really comfortable with their friends even if they are of the opposite gender, because if your friends than your friends. So he could like you or be a great friend. The best way to find out is just to ask. Talk to him one day and just ask him. The bad thing about that is that he might lie and say no, because he is too afraid to admit it. Or he could say yes,which would be a good thing. But if he does say no things might get a little awkward between you two, but with a person like him it doesn't seem like it would be awkward for him and if it is he would get over it and you guys would still be friends. So I Hope that helped and good luck. Dont be afraid to ask him. Sincerely, PK [ Bbeautifulbby555's advice column | Ask Bbeautifulbby555 A Question ]

(my guess, totally NOT accurate, as I never figured out about that guy either) I think he likes you, and is just immature. As in, its not a bad thing, he's just sometimes not as mature as he should be. I know its confusing, but I live by the "Its better to know than wonder forever" quote, so I'd say go for it. I know heartbreak is hard, but eventually it gets better, plus, I'll bet he likes you anyway <3 [ mistaric's advice column | Ask mistaric A Question ]
