A female Australia age 26-29, anonymous writes:

OK so I like this guy and he is one of my friends , I have heard rumours that he might like me, I have tried testing it.

I was walking with him and another guy and asked if they thought I was pretty, the guy I liked said yes straight away, the other didn't reply. so the other says I told him I still liked him (he had heard rumours I liked him the previous year)when I told him he replied with only one word..."cool"

what does this mean?

we are really good friends and he has "accidentally" touched my ass and my boobs, when we are alone he is really nice and funny and jokes around like he likes me but ever since him just saying "cool" I am not sure. can someone please give me some advice

wolfred bane agony auntFrom past experience, 'cool' is basically the typical response for a girl telling him that she likes him for teenage guys who are with their friends at the moment. He does not really know how to respond to that, and does not want to mess up in front of his friend, so he gives a short reply to change the subject, and think about it later.

He may like you, or he may be actually trying to change the subject for some reason. Did he say anything else after that or did you guys walk in silence?

How about simply going up to him and asking him? I sincerely wish you all the best!

BondGirl72 agony auntI would also like to add that almost always when a guy tells you something is "cool" that is what he means. Most guys I know say what they mean. You don't have to infer or guess at what they mean.

Fatherly Advice agony auntLet me get this straight. I'm going to write out your conversation, just to make sure I understood your question properly.

You: Do you think I'm pretty?

Guy you like: Yes!

. . . awkward silence . . .

Other guy: I told him you still like him.

Guy you like: Cool.

Based on that, the guy you like is a man of few words.

He likes you, he is comfortable around you. He is happy that you still like him. He is not afraid of you having a crush on him.

All that from one word.

Now for my advice to you. Don't test, especially in front of other people. You put them both in an awkward situation. Fortunately other guy covered for you. He said (translated version) "Dude, she still is into you, she is just checking how you feel. She knows she is pretty."

Next step is to improve your communication. Right now everything is light between you two. You need to move on from joking to talking about your dreams and ideas.

Accidental touches don't count. If he is embarrassed about accidental touches he is worried about what you think of him. If he is not embarrassed then he is comfortable with you but the trust has not built enough for real touching. If the touches are not accidental, he is testing you to see how far he can go. BE sure your relationship is solid before you get more physical.
