ok so...first things first...I suck at relationships of anysort.. I'm useless at knowing whether people like or 'like' or are teasing :p *sigh*

So here goes, there's a guy on my course who is a super friend.. But I've started to like him more than that and I can't tell if he might like me the same.

We talk loads in and out of uni, tease each other in a fun way and he's started asking for/sharing what seems to me to be more 'personal' information.. Like, touching my arms, making references to him being the only one of his mates without a gf, asking me if i'll be at 'such and such' event, commenting on how nice i look...

Is he just being a nice mate? I'm too scared of being mocked and rejected to ask him about it :s

thanks for the replies :)

I guess I'm just being daft. I wouldn't really be here if I didn't already get a hint of him liking me too. I'm pretty shy, as is he and I'm not confident to go up to him and hug him when with a group of people..

I've just ended in a round about way a really crappy relationship and am a bit put off putting myself into that again... But on the other hand.. Don't want to be single for the rest of my days when there are nice boys like this around..

The Realist agony auntEven if he doesn't feel the same I doubt that he would make a scene with it. If there is that physical contact then it is looking like he does like you. What I reccomend is go hug him. If he holds you close with his arms lower down like at the lower back or hips then he into you.

You don't really have that much to lose if you ask, chances are he will say yes and even if he doesn't I think that your friendship would withstand the awkward period then things will go back to normal.
