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

I'm really confused right now. I told this guy that I liked him and he said he liked me too (supposedly) but he's really busy and doesn't think he has the time for a relationship. So we've been friends and we hang out as normal. But I just can't shake my feelings for him and he's very affectionate with me (lots of hugs and putting his arm around me). When I was sad the other day he walked me all over campus and we talked. He held me the whole time, including my hand. It was sweaty (but it could've been mine and not his. I don't know). But anyway, this past weekend we walked again and we ran into 2 of his friends (1 is a girl). He hugged her and put his arm around her and talked with her for a while. So I'm beginning to think maybe he is just naturally affectionate and I'm not special? he also seemed much more outgoing with them, being loud and joking around and having a long discussion. With me he's a lot quieter (I hope I'm not boring), I especially noticed this when they left and he walked me home. He didn't really say much. But he hugged me twice before we parted ways...ugh! I don't know what all this means. Can somebody plz give me an outside perspective? Thnx

tennisstar88 agony auntListen to what he said. He said he likes you as well but doesn't have time for a relationship meaning you two could still be friends. He sounds naturally affectionate when it comes to the opposite sex. I've held hands with my male friends before. Holding hands isn't necessarily an intimate gesture, it can be friendly as well. That also depends upon how good of friends you two are.

Anyways, you need to focus on what he is telling you than driving yourself nuts trying to read into his body language. You two are friends, nothing more. Leave it at that. If you cannot handle just friends, then it's best you end the friendship.

He probably does like you. He's shy, when around you, which may be a sign. Boys like to show off to their crushes by doing totally stupid or funny things.

He probably is affectionate, but he still may like you.

Hope this helps!
