She thinks this guy likes me, what do you think?

If this can't stay anon please delete :smile: I know some people on here including the subjects of this post.

I was telling my friend about my conversation with a guy in one of my classes and now she's convinced he must like me *sigh* these are the things he said (incredibly condensed)

-Said he was surprised I was single because I'd worn a guys shirt to college the other week.
- Asked if I was looking for a boyfriend
- Then he said 'so I take it you don't like anyone in this class then?'

Then we talked a bit about why I didn't have a boyfriend, stuff like I don't make friends easily and when I do guys see me as only a friend (that leaving old all the other reasons I think which make me sound like a self loathing sort of person :P). Anyway he was saying how I should maybe think of some guys as more than friends.

- He said a couple of girls liked him and he didn't know who to choose. According to my friend this means that he's trying to spur me on to ask him out or something before I 'lose him'. To me it just means that he wants to show of maybe that girls like him? And if I liked him (which I'm not sure I don't) would make me think 'Well I wouldn't want to try and split him up from some other girl'

I shan't pretend I'm not intrigued now because I am? So is my friend right and I'm just completely oblivious or is she reading too much into what he said. He said other stuff too about irrelevent things.

Could be either way unfortunately.

Yeah it could.

I very much doubt he's trying to get you to ask him out but maybe spur you to flirt a little maybe? That way he'll feel as if he at least has a hope of you saying yes.

But then again, most guys wouldn't boast to someone they fancy how many girls they have to choose from. Lol I'd think that would be more likely to make a girl lose interest...(Correct me if I'm wrong any of you!)

I said exactly the same about making me at least lose interest yet she insists it wouldn't for her or other people she knows. :confused: Odd.

It's annoying me know she's planted this idea in my mind! Heh and the asking if I liked anyone in our class struck me as a bit odd (there's only 2 guys in our class). I suppose he could just as easily be the sort of person who likes to talk about these things and because I've never had friends who talk about their 'crushes' and relationships etc it seems odd to me. Who knows.

I'm completely dense when it comes to flirting anyway! Haha.

Even if he does like you, think about your motives for going out with him. IMO, you shouldn't go out with someone just because they like you.

I completely agree with you. I know someone who doesn't love her boyfriend at all but he clearly loves her a lot it seems really bad to me. I'd be extra careful about this because I'm 17 and never had a boyfriend but I wouldn't want to go out with someone just because they were the only person who expressed an interest, it wouldn't be fair.

It's just, I'd never have considered him before as more than a guy in my class but I'm starting to like him more and more :smile: Or rather I'm realising more and more how much I like him.
