Flirt with him, make body contact more often than usual, pay him more attention than usual (for example, if you don't normally call him, call him a few times 'just to talk'), ask him to do things with just the two of you more often....if I could tell he liked me too, I would strongly hint at being a couple/having valentine's day together, to the point of almost asking him myself: "so Ryan (made up name), are you going to get me something for Valentine's day?" *cute smile*

He'll get the hint :smile:

Im in the same position...but we not been friends for that long and when we do meet up we are usually both quite intoxicated lol. We talk online and have been texting each other a bit recently but I want to get more out of it.

One day when you are texting/msning, ask him to meet up with you for a sober occasion of your choosing.
In-person communication while sober is much more conducive to developing a relationship than msning is.

Well, first and foremost, I imagine I'd be at the very least occasioned to re-assess my lifestyle; and my lack of flagrant mincing.

If it were reversed, I would pay her lots of compliments, say hw great she looks, how nice a person she is, how any body would be lucky to have her.
Be more touchy feely, "accidently" brush you hand against hers. Get closer to her than I would another person (but not too close)
Hang on her every word, actually be interested in what she has to say. Make eye contact for that little bit longer than you would with other people.
Not having long, or being a girl, I couldn't do this, but there are certain gestures to give the impression, you know, playing with the hair etc.

Depends how long for. I got quite a bit of attention from this guy. I later started liking him, and I told him. Unfortunately he said to keep it just as friends, which i think was because of school work etc. And now I still find myself thinking about him, even though we barely make as much eye contact then we used to. I think its just physical attraction, but i think i'll wait much longer to tell a guy if I like another.

I get his MSN/AIM/Cell phone number as soon as possible, and become as familiar with him as possible, and hang out with him as much as possible. But it doesn't seem to be working very well, we've only become best friends who go on dates :p:

This is exactuly what we are doing, we go on dates (if you could call days when we go for dinners, shopping and exhibitions etc together dates). I kind of like it, bcoz there is no presure on either of us, which is good. But then I feel we could go a bit further that just good friends, bcoz I certain care him more than any other of my male friends, but i don't want to do anything stupid and then end up lossing this 'very good friend'.

yes, i know! I don't want to "lose" my best friend if it turns out that he doesn't like me. It's so annoying, because I like him so much and value our time spent together, and I'm not sure if I want to just continue with it, or try to find pressure. I'm "tutoring" him in calculus next week, so I suppose I could be overly interested...he's very good about planning, finding ways to extend when we'll be seeing each other before university, but in the immediate, he won't act. I've only been seeing him again for a month, I suppose I shouldn't complain that much.

Good luck!!:smile:

I suppose mine is even more annoying, I could feel that he certainly values me more than just a friend, but then I dunno if he is actually stupid or overly clever and playing tricks with me. Some days he would care me a lot and we would act like a couple. but then some days he just doesnt care abt anything, and be very 'cool' to me... I hate him becuase I love him.
