I would really appreciate some older people's advice for this question.
I've known this family for 12 years now (friends with the daughter) but we grew apart a little through the years. Recently however the mum of my friend suddenly said to my mum that my friend's brother saw me recently and thought i was 'gorgeous' as his mum put it. I got talking to him and we really connected as we have so much in common.
Recently his sister and mum have told me he's really into me. The problem is that to me, he doesn't seem a bit interested in me in that way as we only text every now and again and it's literally about 3 texts max. I really like him and generally want to know if he does actually like me as i'm confused about the situation. Surely his mum and sister wouldn't lie? I don't know whether to show him i like him or even ask, it's just constantly on my mind at the moment and i just want to find out if it's yes or no(without ruining our relationship).
Any help would be much appreciated.
(for general information: I'm 16, he's 20)

before you balk and say you're more mature than girls your age, there is a big (i repeat BIG) difference between 16 and 20. one pays the bills and the other one doesn't. trust me, that'll mean alot to you later on.
so, he's apparently told his mom and sis that your "gorgeous." but you said this guy only texts "every now and again." if he was really intrested you he'd probably be spending a bit more time coming after you. maybe he's just gun shy? uhhhh, no. even a shy guy would take time out of his day just to get a glimpse of you.
my advice, don't stay hung up on this guy. and if he starts to show intrest, just be careful. girls my age have names for guys who go after girls your age..."losers who are looking for an easy score." [ cate9brown's advice column | Ask cate9brown A Question ]
