Can't tell if he's interested or just a flirt.....

A female United States age 30-35, *jqy2b writes:

I'm tutoring this guy in my summer math class, and he seems like he's interested in me, but he hasn't made a move and I'm really hoping someone can give me some advice on whether he's actually interested or is just a flirt.

I've only been tutoring him for a couple weeks, but every time we see each other we have a constant flirty banter going. He'll tease me about stupid things or jokingly push my shoulder while we're joking around. The first time I tutored him he casually mentioned that he didn't have a girlfriend and kept subtly trying to ask if I have a boyfriend. He also keeps telling me that I'm pretty and once replied after I told him something about myself (I don't remember what I told him) he said, "that kind of just makes me more interested."

On the other hand though, he's jokingly asked a few times when we're going to make out (which hints that he might just be looking for a hookup) and when I asked him if he wanted to grab lunch after class one day, he said he had to get back to work. I'm sure he wasn't lying about that because I know he works before and after class, and he didn't look repulsed by the idea of getting lunch with me or anything, but no other plans were made.

I know this is really long, and I really appreciate it of you actually managed to read all of it. I just don't know what to do because I really like this guy and I think I might be over thinking everything because of that. Any advice you can give me would be amazing!

aunt honesty agony auntIt sounds to me like he might be a bit of a cheeky chap. He is enjoying having a flirt with you that much is obvious. Him joking about making out shows he is attracted to you, but am not sure if he is actually looking to date you or if he is only after a bit of fun.

You asked him out for lunch, but he was busy. But if it was me I think I would wait now until he asked you sometime. Then you will know if he is serious or not, because it sounds like he might just be after a little bit of fun.

Auntie E agony auntYes you are overthinking this but you are also a smart young woman by not agreeing to a hook-up. It appears very much that he likes you. Ask him again to grab lunch or a movie or dinner after he gets off work and split the tab There is no shame in asking him out.
