How can I tell if he likes me or if we're just friends?
I have a male friend who is really nice to me. Sometimes we tease each other, but I don't think of it as flirting. The other day someone told both of us that we would make a cute couple. I just kind of rolled my eyes because I didn't want to say anything mean to him. Instead of saying that he would never go out with me he said that he could never replace my crush. I think he's an okay guy and would give him a chance if I knew he had any kind of feelings for me because I don't have a boyfriend now. I'm way too shy to come right out and ask him if he's in love with me and I'm scared that if he doesn't I'll lose his friendship. I don't know any of his friend who could tell me how he feels. He's a great friend and it's not worth losing a friendship over a misunderstanding. Our prom is very soon so I'd like to know what to do.
Our prom's over and I never did ask him. Now I'm worried about bringing up a dead subject and seeming too despirate. Someone tried to fix us up last week. So is it too late? Should I just drop it and see what happens next? Also, if I do ask him, what do I say and how do I bring up the topic?
I've been thinking that we're only friends and that he just said that so he wouldn't hurt my feelings. When he said he couldn't replace my crush there was definately a sarcastic tone to it. I don't know what to do. Being fixed up is so frustration to me. I guess it takes two to tango so I don't have to worry beause he'll never ask me out.
We smile at each other in the hall and we are always teasing each other, but I think it's just friendliness. How can I be sure?
