How to know when you are just one of the boys?

I like this guy quite a bit, but I am scared I'm in the friendzone or one of the boys. I'm really girly and all, but I have a tendency to make dirty jokes and some days I'm sure he likes me, other days I think not. How can you tell when you're in the friendzone?

Oh, and we're 16 if it matters.

    age does matter and personality matters much more in a different way. Personality having something also to do with maturity. People can be like the weather sometimes. And a lot of us wake up in a new world every day. Which is to say there is no guarantee that we will behave the same as we did yesterday or give off the same signals or any signals at all. That's especially true when we're at that delicate age of 16. No longer a child and not yet an adult.

    If they talk about other girls when you're around you might be one of the guys. If they talk about girls as though you were not there you might be in the friend-zone. Or if they talk to you as though you were not a girl, you might be in the friend-zone.

    Be aware that if you work really hard at making someone forget that you are what you are, maybe they will forget. And if they do you might be defeating your own purpose. And there is the fact that sometimes we give up too much of who we are just to fit in when we think fitting in will bring us closer to our goal. Hope it all works out for you.

    Yes you are friendzoned. Ha! You're a girl so friendzone is not a relationship death sentence. You just got to play up the flirt factor. Start acting more like a girlfriend than a friend and give him a little encouragement and see what happens.

    There's no such thing as a friendzone, there is not being a good match. Friendzone implies their platonic friendship is undesirable.

    That being said, you can't, especially when you're sixteen. Everyone is either afraid to express their feelings at that age, or they're aggressively imposing their misguided notions of relationships on everyone else.

    You're going to have to do this the hard way and bring it up with him.

    It's safer to assume a guy likes you, honestly. Just flirt, joke. Guys are more comfortable when you're more like them, but still girly.

    if he gives you the "look" then he likes you.

    if he is always trying to walk beside you he likes you.

    if he is always talking to you when you guys are group talking he likes you

    if he touches you he likes you

    if he laughs at everything you say or always listens to what you say he likes you

    well it's safe to say that he likes your sense of humor. I would just start flirting
