Does he want to be more than friends?


Recommended Posts

I'm confused about what my friend thinks of me. I've known him properly for about three months, and we generally hang around in a group. Sometimes I get the feeling he likes me. He looks at me and smiles at me a lot. He often sits next to me. If I'm talking to other people he often seems to be listening to what I'm saying, and sometimes joins in with the conversation, commenting on what I've said. He'll remember things I've said to him, or things I've said when he's around from weeks before. He'll always comes over and talk to me when he gets the chance, and sometimes when I'm talking to other people he'll hang around me, as if he wants to talk to me but doesn't have the chance to. He's generally quite shy, and doesn't give much away, so it's hard to tell what he's thinking. What signs should I be looking for? How can I tell whether it's just friendship he wants, or more?

I'm a v shy person, and those are the sort of things I do when I like someone; it could be that he's been a really good friend, but I suspect that he may like you as more than a friend. Especially if he's shy, he's probably (I know I'm making assumptions which could be incorrect) either trying to get past his shyness to ask you out or he's hoping that you've noticed him and you'll ask him.

 

Do you like him as more than a friend?

It sounds to me like he likes you....or at least that he feels comfortable around you. But who knows?

 

I've had a guy do this around me and then when we were talking last week, he mentioned his gf and that he is in a LDR. I was shocked he brought her up because he had never before. Anyways, he went on to say how she finds this one actor hot. I was like...Hmm well I think this other actor is hotter..and is more my type. And then he was like, "oh I totally agree, if I had to choose, I would go for him." I thought that was weird, coming from a straight guy. so I dunno...

 

Guys are just weird.

 

Well I hope things work out for you. Keep us updated!

Alice, if a guy remembers something you said and repeats it back to you so you will realize he was listening then he most definitely likes you. Guys don't remember stuff like that. Ever. There has to be something that we want before we devote precious memory space for it. Sports stuff, car stuff, business stuff, we can devote memory to that because we get something out of it that we use when around the other guys. But things the opposite sex says? Not usually.

 

And then to remember it weeks later? No way. :D There is something on his mind for real. It does sound like he is really shy and the things he is saying to you is his way of showing you what he is thinking. Showing you he has an interest in you. Just how deep the interest is will be hard to tell but to answer your question: Yes, he likes you.

Good call, Blue16. AliceR, you must find his attention appealing or attractive or you would be getting annoyed with the poor guy by now. So, have you given him any signals that were obvious enough for him to pickup on? We are not keen on subtle hints. We need big ones, like a sign or a flashing light kind of obvious. The subtle stuff only confuses us and scares us.
