Should I be happy or embarrassed by this incident?

Question - (26 July 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 27 July 2010)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I was playing around on my computer, my window is open (it happens to open right onto our front porch), and all of a sudden my brother is right outside of it; needless to say i was scared all to hell. my dog starts barking, i tell her to shut up, he tells her to shut up and then out of nowhere says "your boyfriend is here"; at the moment i have no boyfriend, now i'm confused. me: "haha very funny" him "no really, your boyfriend is here, say hi" my brother is 3 years younger than me and known to be a pest, so i enlighten him and say hi while also reefing my blinds open... I almost died!!

The guy i have been crushing on ever since we moved here (around 5 months ago), is standing feet away from my window looking at me. Well now i feel real dumb and i know for a fact i'm beet red to boot! He jokes around and says "I can see down your shirt" which is like the first thing he said to me when i met him, along with calling me weird. I smile, he smiles, the boys go in the house.

Now I don't know if i should be really happy, or really embarrassed! I'm both, still, and it's been an hour; i keep playing it over in my head.

Why didn't he say anything when my brother called him my boyfriend? This guy is the type who has a comeback for everything, he is NEVER at a loss for words, and he didn't say anything! was he embarrassed? and if he was, was it a good (like he likes me) or a bad embarrassment (like he's grossed out and didn't wanna hurt my feelings)... ??

there have been other incidents, which i have posted on here as questions, where he was flirting with me, on more than one occasion... and not subtly either!! telling his best guy friends that i'm beautiful, picking me to talk to out of a room of people, tickling me when i zone out, walking beside me in a group, eye contact with me when he is talking to others, etc...

Me and my brother are pretty tight, and he does know i kinda like this guy (who i assume you've figured out is his good friend)... so i can see him bugging me about it in private (which he has done before), he's never bugged me about anyone else i liked in front of them tho... which is why i could also see him bugging this guy about liking me too. hit two birds with one stone on the same night?!

sometimes, when i talk to this guy on say FB or text, he replies like he's uninterested (short answers, etc) BUT in person, he'll single me out to talk to, flirt with me, etc.

is he just a major flirt (with all girls)? is he just being nice? does he like me? could he have said something to my brother about wanting to date me? ... my head is a mess with all these scenarios running through it. what do y'all think all this could mean?!

I asked my brother today and he didn't say much. even if this guy did tell him something, i don't think my brother would betray this guys trust... when i ask him stuff he either gives me short, inconclusive, answers OR just ignores me lol; the joys of a little brother. so, asking him about it is pretty much a lost cause. my best guess is he's either hiding something or all out teasing me.

I'm shy, and I'm not gonna straight out and ask this guy (in person, through text, or any other way)... in case he doesn't like me and i just make an ass outta myself. I'd like to have some kinda of reassurance first before i attempt to make my next move; if that may that be moving forward or moving on.

Your brother seems to know something, when his friend leaves ask him. It would seem to me that he is at the very least, interested in you, but to be sure talk to your brother. Good luck, mal
