I like this one guy named Joey but he keeps on giving me mixed signals.He's known for being a grade A flirt.He's among the most popular guys in our school.I don't know what to think anymore.
1)We were starting to become close friends until he told his now ex-gf that I keep on flirting w/ him 2)After that things got weird,he just stopped talking to me and now he ignores every time we see each other in the hallway [Well,not all the time...once in a while he'll hug me/wave,but he hasn't in a long time] 3)He called me baby one day during lunch 4)My best friend told me that he liked an African American girl with short black hair and that has a myspace. I just happen to be all of those![I asked her if he was just kidding or telling the truth he said he REALLY did!] 5)I always have to make the first move now to talk to him.He won't just come up to me. 6)He asked about me at the movies before asking about any other girl to one of my friends. 7)The day school was out I had to go give an Xmas gift to my Tech Ap. teacher.I knew Joey was in there along w/ my best friend Delya.When I walked in there I automatically looked for Joey and saw him w/ his best friend Antonio. After I gave my Tech APP teacher her gift I went over to talk to Delya. Out of nowhere Antonio blurted out "Sophie,Joey like u!" I gave him an ugly glare because he'd been being annoying and I was trying to hide my blush.Then Joey surprisingly said "Ya,I love you!" but it was like in more of a lower hushed tone of voice. 8)We made eye contact one day and I winked at him and he waved back!
[Joey's known for joking around a lot and being a really big flirt,but I don't know. Antonio is also known for joking around like that too.The thing is when it's just me & Joey he's just a really nice,down to earth guy.The day before my friend Breana told me that Joey heard that I liked him.The thing is I'm really shy and I have no clue how to tell him how I feel because he might be moving to another school district next year.I don't think I love him,but I think I'm getting close.When I really look him in the eye,all he probably sees is just another chick.I have no clue where to go from here.Should I just throw caution to the wind and fight dirty?A lot of girls want him.But all I know is that I'm tired of always have to make the first move and his stupid mind games!I;'m so insecure with all the advice I've been getting and w/ what Delya's been telling me.She says that she thinks that he does like me!I've been getting different answers from so many people,but honestly do I even stand a chance?HELP!]
Well I can relate to those guys. Obviously I can safely say he DOES like you. You being the only girl he likes I am not exactly sure of. You always having to make the first move shows that you may not be the only one. Maybe he just gives girls attention if they are in his view, he doesn't really go out of his way to see you. He is a flirt, that's for sure. There are probably a dozen of more girls who have stories to tell about their flirty encounters with this guy, and they probably feel the same way you do.
Sorry to say but the only way you're going to know for sure is if you make one last move first. He may never make the first move if he hasn't attempted yet. I would suggest writing him a note but I don't want to even begin the risks of that. Try to catch him in the hallway when he's alone and talk to him, or at least tell him(or have one of your friends tell him) you need to talk to him alone after school or another free time. Tell him everything (well similar) to what you said in this question. About how you feel and even tell him the 7 encounters you remember the most that you listed above. You've really got nothing to lose, he doesn't sound like the type of guy who would make fun of you knowing you've felt like this for a while. Don't feel embarrassed since this guy is popular and there are probably other girls who feel this way about him.
So overall you might have to make the first move in order to find out for sure if he likes you. It would cut the anxiety of you having to wait for his first move (which may be forever, he might be just scared or not interested) and you're going to have to look at what could come of this. A relationship, or rejection. Prepare yourself for both.
SO TRUE. But also some of my friends are already teasing me about how much they don't think Joey likes me.They're already assuming the worst!Plus,one of my other friends said that Joey,who's Mexican by the way, doesn't like black girls. Still worth it? - 11 months ago
Answerer
Your friends can have their opinions all they want. The only way your going to know the truth is to hear it straight from Joey. Don't believe rumors,or things people say. If that guy won't date you because of your ethnicity, then he isn't worth your time. - 11 months ago
Question Asker
It's just hard because I like him,but I'm so unsure.If I look him in the eye it's like it's just him and I,but it's still so hard because I think he still might have feelings for his ex,Allison.A.K.A. my friend.I don't even know where I'd begin. - 11 months ago
