I'm 21. I just ran into an old guy friend from hs. We hadn't seen each other in well over a year. In hs everyone told that we should date, go out, ect. To me, he was just a good friend. We never did date but we constantly flirted w/ one another and it did feel like there was something between us. Once hs was over, I missed him terribly. We kept in contact a bit and he would tell me how he missed me so. He never did have a gf in hs and finally he has been dating a girl he met at college now for nearly a year. When we met up the other night, it felt good. We flirted, kept making eyes with one another from across the room. I know this sounds silly but is there an attraction there? I've thought about him constantly since hs ( 3 years ago). He is one of the most well-rounded guys out there and I admire him very much. I was wondering what anyone thought and could share thoughts with me. No sarcastic responses please.

He flirted with you because he likes you, then and now; there's no reason you can't date friends - they make the best spouses!

I think you should leave the guy alone as a love interest for now and just be his friend.
Sometimes it's weird when you see people from High School. You remember all the good times you had, and how they were back then. These memories make people feel good and what may have been flirting, might just have been happiness of remembering old friends and good times.
It sounds like he is happy and he has a girlfriend he has dating for a year. Maybe in time they will break up, but maybe not. Do you really want to be one of those girls who tries to break up a relationship?
Let's say you acted on what you thought was flirting, and it wasn't, not only would you no longer have him as your friend (or it would become very akward) but his girlfriend would probably not like you (with good reason) and not want him to hang out with you.
On the other hand, if you just stay friends with him, and get to know her as a friend, and try not to flirt, then if they do end up breaking up one day, you will be there and he won't resent you because you respected him, his girlfriend, and their relationship.

I agree with drumrb0y....
... especially since he's my spouse!
He was my best buddy in HS; never thought much of him at all. I hooked him up with my best friend after HS in college. She broke down in tears when she told me, "he loves you!" I laughed at her when she told me that. A year later we were married - and have been for the past 16 years!

I think there's something...
but both of you are confused with what you really feel for each other...
try telling him how you feel...
just make sure you're ready to hear and accept whatever he will tell you...
but i'm hoping for the best for both of you...

call him, if he's not living with the g/f.
if he's attached, flirt like hell to win him!
you are older now and know what you want, go get it!especially if he's showing some of the same.
good luck.

the best you can do is talk. say how u honestly feel about each other, coz the fact that he's seeing someone, u might be fooling urself. talk to him
