Ahhh, the joys of being a teenager...
:(
I remember well(I'm 30)
Anyhoo, emotions are the most dangerous of anything you generally face in life, once you start to experience them!!!
This sounds like the wonderful world of the love-triangle.
These triangles are really difficult to solve, as generally, someone ends up getting hurt - and there is not really that much you can do about it.
When I was 15(remember, i'm not that ancient yet!), I had the most crazy crush on my older sister's best friend.
She was 17 at that time, and slim, honey-blonde, and always wore tight jeans - I think most boys would go for something like that!
;)
I think there was some mutual interest there(lovely eye contact), but we never persued it, as my sister found out that I "Had the hots" for her, and although she was mean to me about it, she was probably worried about losing her best friend in the process..
Anyway, I digress...
YOUR situation:
Your sister may indeed be holding back, because she knows you like him, but remember, that if your sister was that likely to backstab you, she probably would have done so by now, and she most likely would not have said that she said "I don't know".
Do you generally think of your sister as a backstabber?
Has she done it before?
How do you and your sister get on?
OK?
If so, perhaps you could talk to her about it - she might want to talk about it too, but does not know quite how to approach you on the subject - lets face it - it's a little tricky, in any interpretation, eh?
:)
This guy might have asked out a lot of girls, but have any of them said yes?
Not all girls are impressed by the same things, just as not all boys are attracted to the same kind of girls - boys just tend to go for anything which shows a hint of interest!
Trust me - I know, being a man!
Although, i am kinda old-school, in that I really beleive in commitment - it makes a much better relationship.
...i digress again...
Boys tend to take rejection very personally(depending on the boy), so your idea that your sister may not want to hurt his feelings is a valid comment - if you and your sister get on OK, ask her if this is the case.
Perhaps if you and your sister see eye-to-eye, she may be able to help set you up to be around him - if she does not like him herself
Oh God, what a wonderfully knotted ball of string, are emotions.
:p
As for playing hard-to-get, this only works, if you know for a FACT that he likes you. Playing hard-to-get if there is no interest from him, will result in him ignoring you even more - not what you want at this point!
Sound like your mom is understanding, what does she think beyond what you have already stated?
To test the water, you could try a little experiment, and that is simply to hold a gaze at his eyes.
If there is genuine interest(that perhaps he is shy about admitting himself), the eye-contact generally gives you some idea of what is going on in his mind.
In other words, if he holds the gaze, he's probably interested.
If he breaks the gaze immediately, he might not be interested.
Emotions are very very hard to predict, and work with, so as a final note, all I can suggest, is that you muddle through the situation as best you can - not the best advise in the world, but everyone else has to do the same thing when they become attracted to someone.
...even old fossils like me!
Good luck in whatever you decide to try.
:)

I dated a guy for a while and one day I asked him what his deepest darkest fantasy was. Know what he said? He wanted to DO my sister. I dropped him like a rock. What next, my 13 year old daughter? If your sister cares about you at all, she woudn't give this kid a second look. Guys who will do this have no respect for you at all. He is a useless horn- dog who deserves the STD (sexually transmitted disease) he will ultimately acquire! Find a decent young man to get a crush on-that one isn't worth your love.

Good lord, next thing you know he'll be asking out your mother. If that doesn't work it could be your grandmother. By the time he's been rejected by your aunts and uncles and great grandmother, he might just ask you out. be patient my dear. You know what they say, family comes first

I don't believe your sister is serious about this immature guy (next to her he is immature); maybe just be yourself-since you only see him once a week, you are already "hard to get."

spare yourself from any effort you are planning to exert because of this guy. since he asked your older sister out i think its high time that you begin to tell yourself that "He's Just Not Into Me".

I read everything you said and that just sounds ridiculous. My advice is for you to go to bed.
