| So I'm into this guy right, and he's been flirting with me ever since August 2008. We've been relatively close friends since 2006. Everything he's done with me has inched me closer to believing he's interested and makes me further interested as well. His actions have ranged from:
- Holding my hand
- Holding me from behind
- Texting me sweet things
- Telling me and other people how beautiful I am
- Taking me out and paying
- Just general flirting
I know what some of you are thinking. "Are you kidding me? The signs are right in front of your face." Yeah, story of my life. People tell me this all the time, but these actions aren't all there is to it.
He told me recently he stopped liking this girl 3 months ago. If he's been doing all these things with me but liked her all this time, then maybe he really isn't interested after all. He mentioned to his friend that he thinks gangster girls are sexy, which I am not one of those girls. And on his phone, he has my contact information labeled as "Bestfriend". I realize that perhaps I should confess my feelings, but then the all popular statement of "I don't want to ruin what we have." is getting in my way. And by the way, no he hasn't pulled anything to try to get into my pants. At all. The closest he ever gets to touching me is hugging me to say hello and bye, and when he rarely holds my hand.
I don't understand. IS there a level where boys can just become so comfortable with a friend that it almost seems romantic, but ISNT? Why would a boy act so intimate if these aren't his intentions? I mean I've seen things like this in a movie, but they always end up together. Does it happen in real life? Girls, I know some of you have been through similar situations. Please share. Boys, please tell me.
How can you tell the difference between a guy being INTERESTED in a girl, or just being extremely COMFORTABLE?
