We met last year, while we were in the same class. During the first part of the year, we were very close. He always talk to me which is unusual because he is shy. He also sat next to me a few times except I moved away because of the teasing. I also noticed that he looked at me all the time.\nAnd then, there was a rumour going around about us liking each other. Then, we kind of talked less. But he seemed to be jealous( well, he make comments) when I talk or get close to other guys.\nThe closeness of us are on and off. On one day we could talk a lot and on another, we can not talk at all. But mostly, he only initiates conversation with me when we are alone. I gave him something on his birthday, he told me twice that he will get me something but he never did\nI haven't spoke to him at all this year.Firsly, my friend told him I used to like him and then there is this rumour about me being pregnant of him. He even asked my friends why I turn away everytime I see him. I think I still like him.

I think you like him as a friend because you two never went out together.\nreally, if he is too shy to ask you for a date maybe you should ask him.\nhe should have given you a gift for your birthday but he is too shy except when you are alone together. it is a sad, weak boy.\nanyway, you seems too young to make a final decision. \ntry to be friends with everyone, and sometimes bring the shy boy when your group is spending time together.\nhe wants to like you but too many people at school are saying wrong words.

Most likely he likes you, but is too shy to tell you. Try talking to him one day. It doesn't have to be a long speech or anything, just something simple. If he responds positively then continue doing it. Hell open up to you eventually. Then take it from there. :)

He probably feels the same way towards you.\n\nJust try and zoom in on what he and you both like...For example, movies, computers, chat rooms, music, board games, certain books, or something you're both working on in class that you both find interesting...Don't try and tell him you like him in the first conversation...Get to know him really well to see if you actually have feelings for him...If he says he doesn't like you, then you don't have to worry about it anymore and it'll be his loss if that happens, but a lot of people are shy, including guys...It's way easier to talk over the internet, Yahoo Messenger, AOL Messenger, MSN Messenger...Once you get to know him pretty well, y'all can exchange screen names...If you don't already have one, I suggest getting Yahoo Messenger...It's way easier to work with than the others and most people, if they have any mess., they'll have Yahoo, but just to be safe, you should probably get AOL Messenger too.  It's way easier to express your feelings or talk to another person online when you don't have to talk to them face-to-face.  You should try this.  I bet it'll help!  Most importantly, be yourself...Being yourself makes for a stronger relationship where you'll be able to share things, ideas, thoughts, etc. with one another easier.

hey mama I am in the exact same position and my guy friend has mentioned he hates when girls make the first move so I am petrified to tell him, I feel like I have to wait for him to come to me. But he is probably thinking the same as you. Whenever drink, stuff happens and I usually spend every day with him and we do everything together. Work out together, party together, occasionally sleep together the whole 9. Whenever we need anything, we're the first ones each other calls. If you figure this out- lemme know!\nLauramr015@yahoo.com

He's probably just playing it off so that all of the coworkers don't start any rumors that aren't true yet.  Just give it some time and keep talking with him.  I'm sure he likes you, but he's not ready to tell anyone yet.  He probably thinks that you don't like him as bf material.  Just blow it off and keep being his friend!  Best of luck!

I think he told you didn't he, from what I surmise from your text is there is lots of signals in your mind that say he is in to you, which may not be the case. don't use your friend to do the work that really scares you, you bring a 3rd party in to negotiate a relationship, you are asking for trouble, it's OK to use one to break the ice so to speak, like hey my friend likes you kinda thing. but for him to tell his feelings to your friend, not a good idea.

Mel, \nI went over both of your questions and am wondering if you left out some important details that we may be able to work off of?  It is rather odd for someone who is a best friend to up and leave you alone and to try to avoid you for no reason.  Could he have become enamorate of you and is trying to avoid you as he doesn't want to ruin the friendship and doesn't know how to address this situation with you?  Just a thought as it is the only reason for this from a male best friend.

I think that might be his way of testing the waters with you, I had a guy friend do the same thing with me "I want to meet someone like you" You have to ask yourself if you would want to persue something with him or not, from the way it sounds not. \n\nThis is one of those time when subtle wont work I think you just need to come out and ask him if he is hinting that he wants more. Just tell him you have been getting a different vibe from him lately and you want to know.

I dont think he likes you. If he did want to get to know you he wouldve said something. i think you should just leave him alone. maybe someday he will talk to you but for now it sure seems like he thinks you are something else. i dont think you should try and comunicate with him anymore....sorry

Perhaps he doesn't like you the way you like him and he's avoiding you because he doesn't want to hurt your feelings. Lay low from him, if he comes around then maybe he was just planning on how to ask you out, or how to tell you that he likes you, maybe he's shy. I hope he likes you!

It sounds like he does like you but isn't ready to make it more evident yet.  Relationships that are built on a solid foundation of friendship last longer than those that are just built on passion.  Invite him when you are going out and let things develop as they do.

One sign is that he likes to be around you and talks to you a lot. Or he may want to take you out as a friend or a date. He will start to show up more than usual and ask a lot of things about you and ur personal life to get to know you better. He may start wanting to be around you more than any of his friends just to be alone with you and he is always quiet because he loves to hear to you talk and listen to you. When you are someone he likes to laugh with and shares everything with. That's when u know he really likes you

I think just keep making small talk with him.  Becoming his friend first may lead to a closer relationship with him.  It sounds like you're showing interest without being too pushy.  A lot of guys like a girl that is challenging and has her own interests.  I'm glad to hear that you don't want to change your style or compromise your moral beliefs to earn attention from a boy.  \nAnd by the way, congratulations on losing weight.  I know it's one of the hardest things in the world to do.  :O)

There are two possibilities I can see:\n\n1. The guy is shy and conservative\n2. He is just being friendly and don't get wrong.\n\nEven if it is the second possibility, that does not mean that he does not like/love you. You should talk with him.

You adore him and he knows that, he is taking advantage of your feelings, and you are falling in his game.To have a mature conversation with him could clear everything and if he still say he wants you as a friend...hun, move on!! he is not your friend!!!

baby girl, he has his group of friends to deal with @ school. and i'm sure that he also has some else in mind there too. rumors will spread like a wild fire, if someone were to tell that he's talking to you. play this one with caution baby girl. sounds like a player to me.
