A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My lad mate is 18 and he keeps flirting with me (on msn, face to face and on text)...i really like him as a mate and is THAT WAY too so i flirt back. as well as being flirty he is sort of playful - he gently pushes me, tickles me, hugs me etc....im just wondering if this is normal since im younger than him (im 15)? i know he knows i like him and i know hes NOT a virgin,but i am...so could this be his slow way of trying 2 get me 2 do THINGS with him (aparently all lads his age have got on their brain is sex) or is he just having fun? x

A Cappella agony auntYes, he's just trying to have fun. But at his age, trying to have sex is what most boys call fun [grin]. Your body, your rules. Don't do anything you're not comfortable with. As long as you stick to your ethic you'll be happy. And any guy who won't wait until you're comfortable with going further is not worth any kind of friendship. So if he keeps it light, you're good. If he starts pushing and you're not ready, break it off. good luck hon.

He's not being playful AS WELL AS flirting. He's just flirting playfully. =-P

If he's into you then, yes, that obviously includes sexual attraction and, yes, he probably does want it. That doesn't mean he's trying to manipulate you by flirting...he's just letting you know he likes you.

Whether or not things escalate depends on your choices.

It sounds like you are enjoying the attention he gives you. If you don't favor his advances, you need to dump him, because it sounds like you may be giving him mixed signals. Otherwise, you need to plainly tell him that you enjoy his company, but you're not going to have sex with him.

Hi, I think he is just being friendly and at his age testing and pushing his sexuality to the limits seeing how far u can go flirting wise i mean and enjoying the attention you are giving back. I definately think u are looking into this too much, if u just want to be freinds with him then be just that have fun, thats all he's doing!

Just don't make yourself to avaliable or seem easy or suggesive and enjoy the harmless fun! x
