why do guys act different when they are around friend then just when there around you?

It's a guy thing. They dont want there friends to see the sensitive side of them.

Guys are shy when it comes to feelings and the like.  Also they don't like to open up unless they are almost positive the feeling is returned, they don't like to be hurt.  Sometimes you just have to coax it out of them.

He may flirt with you, or just act goofy around you. Or maybe he's the shy type and he'll say nothing around you. Have a friend find out if he's interested, then see what happens.

guys tend to be drawn toward something they can't have.  also they like to be territorial, or they could have always liked you but were too scared to say sumthin until you started liking some other guy.  it's a competition thing.

I am really quite familiar with the kind of guy that you described.  [I was exactly like that before!]  It sounds like he is favoring up to you and you are catching the vibes that he is sending out.  He seems to have other "multiple activity" going on in his life; but believe me, you can surely bring all of that to a halt, and turn him into a lovable little Teddy Bear.  It really does appear that it's you that he is after.  And you just watch!  Once you nail him, he will forget all of those other gals as if they never even existed to begin with.  And once they pick it up that someone nailed him, they won't have anything to do with him either.  It's like a mating-season.  If you are not in it then you don't even notice it. BTW, a well-known symptom of what you described is for him to ask you to hook up with one of your friends.  It's not your friends he is after!  He IS AFTER YOU!!!

Well each guy is different. THere could be a vareity of reasons. BUt if they act like that all the timne it is probably best to stear clear of them.

guys always act like this when they are young its called maturity. as you get older you refine your stupidity to a few moments instead of when your young and just being a teen.this will change as you have to "grow up" its always there but they learn to refine it.

It depends on the guy. Some are really pushy and you can totally tell. Some get weird. Some try to be smooth. And yeah, some revert back to the school yard, push you down and call you a dirty girl with cooties when they like you. But here are a few signs other than the obvious flirts: if you catch them staring at you, if they make up reasons to be near you, and if they start conversations with you, they pretty much like you. But remember, guys don't typically like to hang out with girls they don't like. Every guy who is your friend, pretty much wants to get with you.

most guys likes to pick and joke around with you but not in a mean way but there are some that acts in a mean way, but most of the time that their picking is harmless.  I have see that kind of stuff going around for sometime now.

The way he acts around you, the way he looks at you, touches you, talks to you, wants to spend alotta time with you, calls you for no real reason, wants you to go places with him! but mainly its the vibe that you feel when you are around him.

Some guys are just so unsecure with themselfs that they put up a front. Some are shy etc etc etc etc. Then again some are just jerks that have to put on a show for their "friends" so they do not lose face. If a guy really wants you to be around, he'll do just that no matter what his "friends" think or do.

thats extremely strange behavior for just being freindly. He probably like you, but doesnt want to do anything wrong, since he is older and is a teacher and all. Reminds me bit of a prevert.

The truth is Like: Not every Girl or Guy think alike. But the Most Common reasoning for a Guy Is the Behavior of a Girl. If a Girl gives that extra bit of attention to a guy, You could be pushing him to imagine things that are'nt really there.\n   I'm not saying to ignore. But don't pay too much attention either.\n   Being a Guy: I Can read a Girls Mind, i Just Speak to find out. Though I would never mention it or Show a difference. \n   See another way to Make that difference would be(That's if u talk to him) try doing the opposite to what he says. See his reaction to find out if he's really after you or he just playing around. Here i would like the Question How Sure are you that he's interested in you or just has a passing phase crush on you?\n   I would end by saying,"Think what's right in your situation, and do it" coz "All of us have sometime or the other gone through the phase and in my case i have always done it without help". Though me being a guy. hope u like the Answer as its my 1st on Yahoo Answers!\n\nQ:-How can I make it clear that I just want to be friends without seeming stuck up?\nA:-If i were to make a point clear i would just be a bit shrude and say,"Hey guys you all are so sweet i hope u guy/s will present at my wedding" !\n\nIf u get the answer above through and maybe add,"Hey you guys are so sweet,I bet my boy friend would be very happy to meet you guys". Point Through and everything's Clear !\n\nThis is my 1st editing to my 1st answer on Yahoo! Answers! lol

most likely it's social pressures.\n\nyou see, people act differently when they're around different people.  i'm sure you act differently when you're with your friends than when you're with your parents.  if you were with your friends in front of your parents, you would most likely feel inhibited somehow, because you wouldn't feel comfortable opening up.\n\nThat is most likely what he is feeling when he is with his friends and sees you.  he feels inhibited (because he might be teased maybe?) and a bit uncomfortable with the situation.\n\nnow i'll betcha, if you get him alone, you won't get the same reaction.

How does he treat you, how does he act around you, and does he act different when he's around his friends? Listen to your heart. You'll know the truth.

It depends on the personality of the guy, but normally when talking to you he probably talks louder and stronger than he does with other people, when he walks with/by you he would do it very straight not like when he is with friends, he probably stares at you and when you talk to him his eyes shine, he looks nervous or/and anxious and he probably asks personal questions and talks about you with your best friends

Sounds like to me that he is just being friendly.  Sometimes he's in the mood to play sometimes he's not...don't YOU have changes in moods yourself?  I think you are reading way too much in to his silly flirtations.  Flirting doesn't mean one wants a realtionship, flirting is just being silly, and friendly with someone you hope likes you as a friend.
