Is he a secret Jane Austen fan, or is there something else to it?

Question

I like my friend, but I'm not sure if he likes me. We get on really well and he'll always come and talk to me when he sees me. He looks at me from across the room, and smiles at me, and sits next to me when he gets the chance. I hear that if his feet point towards me that means he likes me! I've been watching out for it and they invariably do. He knows I like Jane Austen stuff, and recently he's mentioned a couple of articles he's read about her (he was going to email one of them to me). Some of my friends and I were at his house because his housemate had recorded a Jane Austen adaptation for us, and he sat and watched it with us, even though we didn't expect him to stay and he moaned the whole way through. He definitely doesn't like the other girls who were there, I know that. Sometimes when we're with a group of friends I feel like he looks at and talks to me the most, but sometimes he treats me the same as the others (usually when there's a slightly bigger group and he gets shy).

Answer 1

Sounds like he has a crush on you to me! If you like him then make a move and put the poor boy out of his misery! Let us know how you get on!

Answer 2

Aaaw he's a boy! We girls make them do all the running so that they take all the risks. It sounds as though he does really like you (a straight guy talking about Jane Austin!) Invite him to the cinema to see "Becoming Jane" and hold his hand. Maybe he'll walk you home and kiss you chastely.

Answer 3

hi, sounds like he has a crush on you. But he dosent know if the feeling is mutual. He tries to act indifferent to you when he is with a large group because he dosent know how you feel and he most probably dosent want others to know because of teasing him about you. Try to speak to him alone.

Answer 4

Sounds Cute; It seems to me that he likes you :] Good luck;
