Do you think he likes me?
I'm 15, and I've been friends with this guy for my whole life because our families our friends, but he lives an hour away. When I see him, he acts really flirty and gives me neck massages and plays with my hair and stuff, and we text a lot. He calls me babe and tells me I'm the prettiest girl he knows, but our conversations are always short because he reads my responses and never replies. He says his phone is broken but I know that he's texting other girls when he stops answering me. Am I over thinking this or is he just a flirt?

Some people enjoy flirting but don't mean anything by it. They will flirt with lots of different people that they know as acquaintences or friends but they feel comfortable with them. For some its somebody safe to practice flirting with.
Some young guys don't realize that they may be sending the wrong message or at least confusing ones to the girls they flirt with. Does it mean he likes them enough to want to get to know them even better and start dating them because they have a romantic interest developing? A few guys may flirt if they feel romantically but it shouldnt be counted on as a sign of him being interested in you..especially since you are so far just involved as a friend of the family. At his age, he is going to be interested in practicing flirting and looking for girls who are easier to date. All he is at this point is a male friend who you keep in contact with sometimes by text. Enjoy his visits when he is there but I would say to stop overthinking it and look for signs of interest from guys you come across in your daily life. The ones who stare at you lots or find opportunity to get near you, is something we all do by instinct. If he gets close enough to be an arm length away from you and you don't find yourself backing away, then likely you have an interest in him as well. If you approach a guy first and get an arms length away from him and he doesnt take a step back then he is comfortable having you near. Other signs that people really like each other is they start mirroring each other. If you cross your legs, he will move his legs too, maybe to place a foot on the other knee, or you place a hand somewhere on your head or face, he'll do a similar gesture. Its a subconscious body language where we copy the one we're interested in and most the time are unaware we're doing it. If a guy is interested and you stay in his space or get closer, you'll find each other starts to lean the torso towards the other and face each other in conversation...this shows interest. Eventually he'll move so that he seems to accidently brush against you or touch your hand with his...all signs of interest. If a guy does this and you like him, then do the same back to him. I thought you might find it helpful to have some hints as to what signs of true interest is. Good luck dear.

He's interested in you, I can't know for sure if he likes you though.
If he reads your responses but doesn't reply, he probably doesn't have feelings for you. He probably just finds you attractive and likes to flirt.
How do you KNOW he is texting other girls when he stops answering you? If there is a way that you somehow know, then I think that's an obvious sign that he doesn't like you like that.

Basically,you've started developing feelings for this boy best friend, maybe because he seems too good to be true. You know, perfect childhood romance etc etc. But, even if you've known him for your whole life, you need to decide if he's always been serious about you, even as a friend. For a guy who is generally pretty outspoken it's obvious that he enjoys flirting. Do you guys talk about your inner feelings? Is he the kinda guy who won't judge you if you confront him at a bad moment? I know this seems very far fetched but the very fact that he gets uninterested when some other girl comes along shows that he doesn't value you. As friends, he might be great..but in my opinion I don't think you should keep thinking about this because he really doesn't seem like a mature guy.
Best of luck though, whatever you choose:)
