Question Posted Saturday February 9 2008, 12:02 am
so i have a very close friend who has made it almost completely clear that he likes me. i don't like him in a potential relationship kind of way, but i wouldn't mind being able to flirt a little to get his best friend a little jealous, who was at one point my "almost lover." but i don't know exactly how to. every time he has the chance to, he'll try and touch my hair, face or hands. are there any subtle ways of responding to it that would lead him to carry it further?
Dont do that to people. If he likes you in a relationship kind of way and you dont like him in return, then keep it strictly friends and let him know that you arent going to date him. Its cruel to flirt back to get someone else jealous. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]

What you are suggesting is mean and munipulative. You have no right to play with a guys feelings like that just to make someone else jealous.
Enjoy the attention, but don't lead him on only to shoot him down. You give all women a bad name when you behave that way. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
