Question So my friend Jake and I are good friends. I used to have a
huge crush on him, and he knew. Eventually I got over it and
we put it behind us. We like to joke around a lot, and
somewhere along the line it turned to jokingly flirting back
and forth. Sometimes when we're out with friends, they think
something's going on between us and they think we like each
other. He does give me generally more attention then a few
of his other female friends when we're hanging out. We hold
hands, hug a lot, touch each other a lot, and are generally
more comfortable around each other. I've been told by
friends a couple of times that when we're seen together in
the hallways at our school that some people they know ask if
we're going out. Sometimes he looks at me and pretends to
lean in to kiss me or puckers his lips. Once he told me he
wishes he was less picky with girls, and kept saying it to
me throughout the day. When we talk online he usually says
he misses me, or when our group of friends hangs out and I
can't make it, he usually says he misses me and wishes I
could come. Once when I was alone with his male friend, he
told me that he thinks Jake likes me. Also, Jake told me
that his sister even thinks he likes me.
Our friends insist he likes me, but I just think he's joking
around.
What do you think? Does he like me or what?
Answer Hi Isabel,
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to answer your question. It sounds as if Jake may like you, all of the signs are there. Jake told you that his sister thinks he likes you? Did you ask "well do you?" If you're not comfortable with asking him if he likes you, can one of your mutual friends ask him?
