writes:A friend of mine, we'll call him Kyle, and I have been flirting quite a bit lately. I've known him for a number of years but have never acted like this with each other before. ever. Here is just one example. I want to know what his actions mean, is he into me? I feel like he might be, but that's why I'm here for a second opinion. The usual group of friends got together Saturday for a local music show. Kyle was also there. We were all hanging out in a garage talking/pre drinking for the night, a couple times out of the corner of my eye i would catch Kyle looking over at me (he was sitting just off to my left, and we were all sitting around in a circle), he would look at me and then look around and then look at me, he must have done this about 10 times until i finally looked right at him, smiled and joked about why he kept looking over at me. He joked back and said "i'm looking for validation, do you know what anyone here is talking about?!". I laughed and said I wasn't really paying attention. Later in the night, when we've gotten to the show, at one point we were standing right next to each other, and very close, our shoulder's were touching, and he would try to talk to me but i couldn't hear him because of the music, we'd laugh and he'd pretend to lip words. He kept looking at me and touching my face, as if he were trying to wipe something away from under both my eyes. (he did this twice). Then he kind of cupped the side of my face with one hand and put his finger through my hair as he held his hand there for a moment. ( i thought he was going to kiss me, but he didn't). A couple times he put his arm around my waist (only lasted a couple seconds though.) After we left the show and went to a bar with everyone, because it was still early, as we were walking into the bar doors he said to me "you're with me. If anyone asks, we're dating". and continued to compliment my eyes after we had sat down. (he was complimenting my eyes to my brother, whom was sitting right next to him) "doesn't she have such nice eyes? she has such nice eyes"he must have said that 3 or 4 times. There are other things that he's done... but this was just a few recent. Is he interested? is it a normal thing that a guy will "joke" about saying that you're dating? or putting his arm around you... touching/cupping your face for no reason? what's going on here? Thanks! I appreciate all your replies.

The best thing you can do is to just be honest and to be yourself. If you are interested, show interest. If you are uncomfortable with something then say so too! Things are working out I am sure and you didn't have to be someone you are not, so go with that and get to know him more. So I don't think you need to play any games with him. Hopefully he or you asks about actually being a couple though :)
I hope this works out for you, I have my fingers crossed :)

JAMR is verified as being by the original poster of the question Thanks so much for your answer!
I do like him!
I flirt back and keep it subtle but interesting, I let him flirt with me, and I like it.
Is there anything I should or shouldn't do to keep the interest up?!
Should I reciprocate everything he does, pay attention or pretend that i'm not paying attention sometimes?

Jokes usually lasts for a couple of minutes, if so long. There's no way a guy would make so much advances, compliments and attention to someone without some sort of interest. Now, I do think the "pre-drinking" allowed for some extra things to happen but I think this only allowed the both of you to be more honest with each other. You should definitely show some interest to him the next time you see him!...assuming you do like him of course.
