A age 26-29, * writes:

I'm a junior in high school and i like this Guy a lot. He is a grade below me but he's only 2 months younger than me. He had a gf but they broke up a few days after he found out that i like him. I didn't actually tell him myself until after they broke up. He told me that they broke up on the day that he broke up with her, which is when i told him how i feel. After he found out he was really nice to me so i asked if u would ever have a chance with him. He said no because he just wants to be friends. I ignored him for a few days but then finally everything went back to normal. We were hanging out with a group if friends the other day and he was flirting with me the whole time. Everyone noticed and was asking me about kit and u didn't know what to say. I really like him a lot and i just want to know if he likes me. I don't want to do something stupid if he dosen't like me. Please help :)

In high school I flirted for fun. My friends flirted for fun. Unfortunately it lead a lot of my friends to fall for me, which then I'll cool off flirting with them and find someone else (because I don't like leading people on), but for this guy it sounds like;

He just broke up with his girlfriend... flirting is fun... cute girl is flirting back... She likes me but whatever... I'll flirt with her.

At least that's how I'm interpreting his thoughts (I could always be wrong). I knew guys that would flirt with me, but would never date me because they just didn't want to (and I didn't either which prevented sore feelings).

He's being a jerk flirting with you after saying he wouldn't date you. Honestly, because you like him, stop flirting unless you want heartache.

So_Very_Confused agony aunthe already told you he only likes you as a friend.

this is a case of having to listen to his words....

i flirt with folks all the time... it doesn't mean I want to date them.. I'm married. I wonder what you mean by flirting....

also if he just broke up with his girlfriend (and especially if he broke up with her because of you) I'd be very careful about getting involved romantically with him. IF he was so fickle as to break up with a girl just because another girl liked him, he doesn't sound like he's ready to settle down...

Try not to read into flirting too much, this will drive you crazy! Everybody flirts but it doesn't really mean they like you. If he wants you it will happen. If not, he's just not that into you. And in that case, plenty more fish in the sea!

janniepeg agony auntSome people break up but don't want the exes to know they are dating others. He is flirting with you to show you he likes you physically but could also be keeping an eye for his ex if they were to get back together. It's never a good idea to hook up with one who just got out of a relationship. You don't have to be his friend just because he says so. When people say "friend" they usually mean they are going to use you if you let them. Friends don't use each other and have sex.
