I'm confused about what my friend thinks of me. I've known him properly for about three months, and we generally hang around in a group. Sometimes I get the feeling he likes me. He looks at me and smiles at me a lot. He often sits next to me. If I'm talking to other people he often seems to be listening to what I'm saying, and sometimes joins in with the conversation, commenting on what I've said. He'll remember things I've said to him, or things I've said when he's around from weeks before. He'll always comes over and talk to me when he gets the chance, and sometimes when I'm talking to other people he'll hang around me, as if he wants to talk to me but doesn't have the chance to. He's generally quite shy, and doesn't give much away, so it's hard to tell what he's thinking. What signs should I be looking for? How can I tell whether it's just friendship he wants, or more?

I think from what you've described you've got all the signs you need give him a bit of gentle encouragement and I'm sure he would ask you out or if he's really that shy you might have to do it yourself valentines day soon maybe see if he wants to go on a date hope this helps

I would say the signs are there that he likes you more than friends. The fact he is always hanging around you when he can, talking to you, remembering things you've said.
I was in a similar situation about 2 years ago with a friend of mine....I'm marrying him in June!
Why don't you ask him? Ask him to go to the cinema with you or something like that? If he's shy, he might appreciate you making the first move! OK, it may not work out, but you'll feel better knowing either way. If he isn't interested in that way, there will probably be a bit of embarrassment for a bit, but that'll pass
Good luck!

If you expect him to take the lead, then you can pretty much forget it.
But let's be clear --> he SHOULD take the lead.
Have you ever tried putting someone on the spot? You might want to see how he answers when you ask, "Soooo, what gives?"
But the thing is, do you honestly want a dude who can't eve muster up the courage to say, "hey, let's get together and do . . . "
He doesn't have to be Tarzan, but the dude gotta have a little bit of courage to ask you out.

It's a tricky one because the only way you will know for sure is probably to ask him. Before you think about that though I think it is more important to think about what it is that you want from him. Are you happy being friends or do you want more yourself?
If you aren't sure then keep spending time with him to get to know him better and if possible spend some time one your own with him- he may behave differently then.
Good luck working it out x

oh, he likes you. do you ever ask him about himself or thing he likes? see if he wants to do something you both like, Hey you want to come with me and go ??? you didn't say how old either of you are. is anyone driving? try showing him you are interested in what he has to say the same way he has shown you. then you will get a better feeling for whats up. smile it could be all good.

If you like him ask him straight out if he likes you this guy seems a bit shy and is probably waiting for a sign off you. Just go for it and see what happens.

ask him. that's the only way u gonna find out. cos he's shy. it may take him a long time to work up courage to ask u. am a woman but i won't hesitate to ask a man out if i like him a lot and know he is shy. i've done it before and it worked. good luck.

He exhibits all the signs, but that COULD actually just be the way he is. I knew a guy that acts like that all the time normally. If that's not how he usually acts, then he probably DOES like you, but he's just afraid to show it.

dont be afraid to pull him aside one night and just sit down and talk to him one on one. maybe he does feel something for you and just doesnt know how to say it. or maybe he just enjoys your company and thinks youre interesting. ask him out if you really think hes definitely interested in you. the worst he could say is no. and thats not as bad as it seems. take initiative.

It sounds like he does indeed "like" you. I'd just carry on and see what happens, or to expedite the process try to spend some time alone
