My best guy friend and I are super close, and recently his best friend and myself have been talking a lot and becoming closer. He has "dated" two of my other kind of close friends many years ago. He has also been flirting with me, and my best friend has been hinting things about his friend and myself. I'm just very confused. Help! I am a girl.

Cus if its a new thing, he probably moved from just feeling like a friend to developing a deeper interest in you.
Yes, flirting can be a playful thing and not mean anything serious, but if that were the case, he would be the kind to flirt with everyone he meets on a consistent basis. Does he? If not, the flirting means something. The way to find out is to ask him. "So Jake, we've been friends a long time and it hasnt been until since lately you've begun to flirt with me. Does that mean your feelings for me have changed from friend to something more? What are you hoping for? Do you want to date me?
Then if he says no, and you dont have those feelings for him, alls finde, just continue your friendship. If he says yes he has feelings, then if you do too, go for it and try it out, otherwise you'll never know and spend a life time wondering 'What if...'
If he likes you and you don't like him back the same way, tell him so. Don't base your relationships on what others think or what they say. Relationships are a complicated enough thing without throwing in well meaning but misinterpretations from others. Find out what you need from the source, from this male best friend.
