Is he leading me on and taking advantage of the fact I like him?

A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I've got a problem with this boy i REALLY like.

It might sound like one of those pathetic middle school crushes but i'm definitely not in middle school and this is not a crush.

I like this guy and so does my best friend.

But he told his best friend that he liked me.

At a mutual friend's party we spent all night talking and flirting and most of the time i was sitting on his lap.

I kissed another boy that night and he got a bit jealous and kept bringing it up but i assured him it was the alcohol and nothing serious had happening.

He walked me home but we did nothing.

We've spoken a couple of times and when the conversation gets going we get on so well, but he never starts it. He now knows that i like him, do you think he is just leading me on and taking advantage of the fact i do? I think we would make such a good couple and i really want things to work out between us because he is the loveliest guy

Should i give up because he is so unresponsive or keep trying?

kayla20 agony auntno one likes to be ignored dont make the effort to contact him distance yourself slightly itl push him to wanting to ask you out he might be shy which is why you have to start the conversations so it might take him a while to ask you out but it doesnt sound to me like his leading you on just that his abit nervous.if i was you id worry more about if you did get together how your best friend would take it.give it some time with the guy and if he doesnt react soon then give up

Kenj agony auntHes probably shy, if hes taking the time to walk you home etc.. then hes probably does like you.

Give him time, if you have those awkward silence periods in conversation hold his hand instead or put your arm round him. If he doesnt take that signal then hes not really into you.

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (11 March 2010):

Maybe he's just really shy. I'd suggest that you actually tell him you like him to his face and see what he says. He might be confused given that you did kiss that other guy. Men do get confused easily by female signals. You may have given all the right signals, but that one kiss was probably enough to make him wonder whether you really like him. You'l probably find that he's thinking the same as you. (Is she leading me on?). I think you need to go for broke and just tell him how you feel.
