Likes me?
There is a boy in my english class and I think for a total fact that he likes me. He does that grade school shenanigans, he makes fun of me, pokes me, touches my desk, flips my book pages when I'm not looking. I asked this kid next to me if he knew how to spell my last name and he forgot the second letter so the kid that I like said "no no, it's spelled like this" and he wrote it on my folder and spelled it right. He just broke up with his girlfriend. Which I really like because she wasn't the best to him. We talk every single day. We look each other in the eyes all the time, even if we aren't talking. He asks me for help when he doesn't understand something. I heard when a guy accuses you of liking someone else, he likes you. He does that, he accuses me of liking the nerdiest kid in our class when I don't. The boy I like is a flirt but when he was dating his girlfriend he was really loyal and I respected it. He would trace around her fingers on the desk in english. Everytime she wanted to play bloody knuckles, he would play with her even if he didn't want to. They would hold hands all the time. They were always together. I kinda want him but do you think he likes me? If so, what do I do? Thanks!

Lord.
On the one hand, he definitely likes you. He pays you a ton of attention, is broken up, and is giving you a ton of signs. Your intuition is right, but then he's not exactly being quiet about it. Accusing you of liking the nerdiest guy in class? It's a nonsensical and backwards way guys sometimes use to reassure themselves that you don't like anyone else, and he's clueless so he picked the one person in class he thought was least likely for you to be attracted to, just to make sure of the answer he got.
On the other hand, he's acting like a kid. I know you're high school. If he's first or second year, give him a pass. If he's a Junior or Senior, take note, because generally by 17 you should have grown enough self awareness to not be as ridiculous as he's being. I'd not be surprised if everyone in the class knows exactly what's going on.
What do you do? Smile at him. Flirt back. Accuse him of liking the nerdiest girl in the classroom (quietly, and probably alone, so that he doesn't embarrass himself is he vehemently protests it). Ask him what he's doing during the weekend and dramatically lament the fact that you're not doing anything (unless you are, then wait for another weekend)
Send him hints. Fairly big ones, guys aren't great with subtlety most of the time and this guy's probably worse off than most. If he doesn't get the hint within a week or two, straight up tell him that you've been flirting back for a week and you're wondering why he hasn't asked you out yet. When he looks at you shocked, say something like "What, did you think there was even the slightest chance I'd say no?"

Well my boyfriend tells me that guys make fun of you and are mean to you if they like you. Now thats just some guys...thats how my boyfriend was before we started dating...weird huh? I thought so. Its hard to say...it sounds like he is interested...why not flirt back? Flirt back and see what he does...or if you are confident ask him...maybe ask him if he wants to hang out sometime! Good luck! :)
