These could be his subtle ways of showing that he values your company on a different level.

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I just recently found this website and I think it's a great help! I need some advice though since I am stuck in a "love triangle". One of my really close guy friends is showing all these eight signs and I can tell he really likes me. However, I like him only as a best friend and nothing more. And then there's this other guy who I've known literally all my life but we aren't as close as a pair compared to me and my other guy best friend. I am confused whether I'm making the right decision to chose to other guy even though I'm pretty sure he only thinks of us as friends. Maybe even less since we only get to see each other a few times in a year. The guy friend I like is visiting very soon so i need to make this decision and see whose best for me. Please help?

HI there! I randomly came across this website and I thought this looked prett good for advise. Hope you can help! :) So there's this guy that I've liked for over a year now. I'm in 9th grade and he was a new kid in the middle of winter last year. He started texting me everyday. He told me he had moved from Pakistan because of a parent's job. He shared his old friends and the girl he liked back home, what Pakistan is like and all his deepest secrets. At first, I felt creeped on cause I didn't know why he chose me of all people to talk to. SO I stopped responding until I realized we could become best friends. Well I found out this other guy liked me, and I told the guy I like and he got all jealous. He said he liked me last year, but not anymore. The I started liking HIM. We talk everyday now in text and at school. We stay after school almost everyday and we hang out ina deserted back hall and he just stands there with me and hugs me and picks me up. He wont tell me if he likes me or not, because he knows I like him. But his religeon forbids him from having a girlfriend. His birthday is in 5 days and it's over Christmas break. I want to do something for him after school on friday. What do I do? Help!

I think one of guy friends likes me... I hope so because I like him and my friends say we would be great together....

So I've like this guy since last summer, we've hung out several times, and he's kissed me like twice, when we'd be around each other he'd always tease me and mess around, he's told me that's he's attracted to me, but a while back he mentioned that he doesn't want a relationship. We still hangout and he texts me all the time, especially drunk, always asking to hangout.. Idk if i should tell him and ruining my friendship, if he doesn't feel the same way. Help?!
