Does he like me?

okay i go to church and i think from what your story tells that he is just trying to look out for you be your big brother i wouldnt think too much of it. and that your 14 and he is 17 is not a good match. but heyy if your guys are so close thats just love through a brother/sister relationship.

Ok, everybody says love, I don't. It could be both and this is a tricky question. I'm not intending to make you more confused here, but I've had the same problem in both ways (except that I was the guy xD).

There are three points in your question.

1. DOES HE LIKE YOU ?

I think the only way to know that is to show him that you are interested. If he is interested, he will show you. If he isn't, he will show you. This is that simple.

2. HE'S 17, YOU'RE 14.

While a 3-year age difference isn't a lot, he's going to turn 18 soon while you aren't. Don't let your age difference be a problem if you end up being together, but do consider that a 17-year-old doesn't have the same maturity as a 14-year-old.

3. YOUR FATHER IS YOUR YOUTH MINISTER.

So what ?! If that guy is not the kind that gets in trouble a lot, that shouldn't be a problem as long as both of you are honnest with him.

It isn't rocket science. You like him and he likes you. The biggest problem is your age difference. A 17 year old boy should be with 16 or 17 year old girls.

Once he turns 18, in most states he could become a lifetime sex offender if he has sex with an underage girl.

That might be something to think about for a minister's daughter.

I would watch how he treats other girls because there were definitely guys when I was a teenager that flirted with every girl and made you feel special, like there was a chance. If it seems that you are the only one that he treats this way then chances are he does like you. I wouldn't ask him out, I know how difficult for girls that is, but I would however, ask him how he feels about you. I know thats hard too, but think about it you aren't a couple now, if he says he doesn't like you that way, you will still be in the same situation you are in now so you have nothing to lose.

Well, is he like this with everyone else, or just you? If its just you, then I would say its flirting. If he makes you happy, then go with it. I wouldn't worry about his dad making an issue of it, he probably knows anyway, if he is around when his son is being like this. However, don't do anything that makes you uncomfortable - there is a big difference between being 17, and 14. :)

I would say he is flirting with you. The fact that he does all these things should be enough to tell you this. lol. Just go up to him and ask him out if you like him back. If you don't just tell him your not interested.

dnt be stupid all he want 2 do is have sex with u.

think about it ur 14 he's 17, what would a 17 year old want with a 14 year old girl

He sounds like a great mate anyway, if he wants to take it further he will, and then at least you'll know. Enjoy the friendship!!!

thats going to be illegal by next year and if he likes you he probably can't get a girl his own age sorry no church girl can be that pretty

it really sounds like he likes u, but i would ask him...if ur scared to ask him try and get 1 of your friends to do it...one time the same thing happend 2 me... so i asked one of my friends to ask him...he didnt like me, but we still hung out all the time....im only 12 but i know what im talking about..but if u dont want to take advicefrom me, thats ok
