Answer 1

????
Maybe or maybe not.
You can ask him, or ask his friend for more info.

Answer 2

Trying to be as objective as possible, do you feel there is evidence that he treats you or responds to you differently than the other girls who he is friends with?

Does he have history as a player? It doesn't sound like it from your description, but give it some thought - previous gfs, etc.

It could be that he is completely undecided and not going to show his cards before you do. It could also be that he thinks of you as another of his friends who are girls as you describe it above.

Hey, at my age I say nothing ventured, nothing gained. It's far worse to look back at your high school years and wonder what would have happened if you had made the first move, than to make the first move and find out he thinks of you as "just a friend".

In the latter case, at least you know for sure. You'll be able to both laugh about it years from now. But in the former case, the not knowing and the possibles that never were are the kinds of things old people like me (I'm 45) think of late and night and wish we had done something about it, and been courageous, and gone for the gusto back where we were still your age.

I say make the time to get alone and talk to him and tell him how you feel and let the chips fall where they will.

Best to you.

Answer 3

Well, I feel the same way that you do. Some people are just hard to get to know if they are just nice people or if they like you. Pay close attention how he interacts with others and how he interacts with you. That could be a clue. Also, have you tried flirting a little bit to see how he responds? That may help a little bit, unless he is just flirty with everyone.
I hope that helps. Like I said, it is hard to tell if you don't know the person too well.
Oh yeah, I think it is great that you have never had a boyfriend. I think it will be a lot more special when you find the right one. Also, I think it also can help you be able to focus on some of the things that you will not be able to focus on down the road when you need to give a lot of attention to the man you marry if you decide you would like to get married.
I hope that helps!

Answer 4

I'm pretty sure he likes you. When my boyfriend now and I were just flirting he NEVER called me back! :P It was so frustrating but eventually he started calling back once he noticed I was upset that he didnt. You should let him know how you feel. Life is all about chance if you dont take a chance you'll miss out on a lot of things. The best thing to do is when you two are alone just say it, forget about everything else and just suck it up.

Answer 5

It sounds like you think about this too much. Could that be what has held you back from other relationships? Just take a chance and ask him out. What could you lose? If he does like you, maybe since you are so guarded to show your feelings fiorst HE may think YOU do not like him like that. I don't know...just go for it! You have nothing to loose and a boyfriend to gain! Now or never, sweetie. Have confidence in yourself, and Good luck!

Answer 6

sounds like a real nice guy. He seems to enjoy just being friends with a lot of people. I am sure your not the only one that he picks up when they are down. If he were interested in you as a girlfriend, you would know, but as for as what you have said, I think he is not. Iike I said, he seems to be just one really nice person to everyone, not just you..

Answer 7

If he's never showed any interest in you as you are hoping, then really maybe he's just being your friend.
If you want more then that, well, you could just talk to him
and then you'll get the answer one way or the other. There's no point in wasting your time on someone who doesn't return your feelings, right?

Answer 8

well u can never know till u try and the only worse thing that couyld happen is him saying no then that would not be the end of the world but looks like even if he said yes u have many hundles to jump coz u seem to already see many negatives in him

Answer 9

Sorry but, seems to me that he just wants to be friends and nothing more.
He even sounds like he may be a little on the homosexual side if he has a lot of girlfriends....or he could be a "player" and in that case, I'd just stay casual.

Answer 10

All you can do is tell him how you feel, but don't go in thinking that the stuff you listed means he loves you eternally. Those are just nice little friend type gestures. Take a risk...

Answer 11

Sounds like he might be just a good friend. If he's interested, he'll let you know one way or another.

Edit: Wow, apparently my internet connection is much slower than everyone else's. In any case, we all pretty much drew the same conclusion.
