Question - (4 March 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 4 March 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I met this boy about two years ago. I met him through a friend, and only started talking to him because my gay friend fancied him. So, as soon as I started talking to him, I felt this really strong sexual tension. Honestly, you could cut through it with a knife. I thought it was between him and my friend though. My job of being there was to find out whether this boy was interested in guys or not for my friend.

Anyway, he made a point of sitting next to me on the bus home, and before I got off, he'd taken my phone and put his number in it, and put mine in his. He texted me the next day asking me if I wanted to come round. I did, I had nothing better to do. We played xbox all day, and before I left, we decided to watch a film. He left to get drinks, and I laid down on his bed. When he came back in, he smirked, bit his lip, walked towards the bed, and stood by the side of it. He put his hands either side of me and leaned down as if he was going to kiss me, and just as I was about to lean up, he looked to the side and stood up. He climbed over and laid behind me to watch the film. He kept tangling his feet with mine, playing footsie.

The next day, at around 9pm I got a text asking me if I'd meet up with him at Tesco. I did, I had nothing better to do. My gay friend was with me too. This boy ended up telling us he'd only been single for a few days, after breaking up with his girlfriend because he was "bored". He tickled me so much I had tears streaming down my face, all because he knew I hated being tickled, and he kept grating the tracks of his skateboard against the floor because he knew I hated the sound. Every time I'd met him so far, I could feel that overwhelming tension. When we left, my gay friend said to me, 'He fancies you. This is so unfair, I like him so much!' I didn't believe him, because this boy is so attractive, he could never want to be with me.

After that night he didn't text me again, or call, or answer my texts or calls. I wasn't overly bothered. A year later I saw him again, with some of my friends. Something you should know is he doesn't like most people. He's really picky about who he likes, and thinks even the nicest of people are idiots. So if he likes you, it's like a miracle, according to his best friend. So I assumed he hated me, that's why he stopped talking to me. I didn't expect him to remember me, I'd changed a lot since we last met. But he did. He said hello, and asked if it was really me, just as I was leaving in a rush, so all I said was, 'yeah', and left quickly. Apparently that 'bruised his ego', because since then he hasn't talked to me except for once when he asked me if I was up for a backie on his bmx.

I've been in the same group as him plenty of times, we've even sat alone together, in silence. Whenever I see him now, even when he's with his girlfriend, I can see him staring at me. I can feel it when I'm not looking. But he doesn't look away when I do, he just smirks. When I walk past he turns around to watch me walk away.

The short question for such a long description is, do you think he likes me? What's the deal with him? I wouldn't do anything, he has a girlfriend, I'm just curious because I have never felt anything that strong between someone ever before, and I have no idea what he thinks of me or what his behaviour means.

If you read all of that, well done, and thank you, it really means a lot :)

aunt honesty agony auntWell its a hard one to answer really. It sounds to me like he is a bit of a tease and a bit of a womaniser. He stopped contact with you therefore he obviously wasnt overly wanting you or he would have stayed in touch. When you met up a year later you just said yeah to him and left and as you said yourself that hurt his ego therefore now I would say he is staring at you and trying to catch your attention because you are the girl that rejected him in his own mind. Dont play his games. Just keep your distance from him because he sounds like a bit of a player.
