I have this friend, met for 6 months and recently we are always around each other EVERY single day (and I didn't notice this until he mentioned it). Since we live on campus and we're less than a minute walk away from each other's room, he always comes by to my room to hang around.
He teases me a lot, poking, grabbing, messes up my hair, makes fun of my name, whether in front of others or when we are both alone. Recently, he keeps joking to our friends (and to me) that I like him. But then he keeps trying to "pair me up" with which ever guy friends he thinks I'm close to. I find this so contradicting. We do care for each other a lot but he is also very thoughtful around other girls. Sometimes I find him protective to me, but I'm guessing he shows gentlemanly-ness towards other girls too. He tells me his feelings and worries, and we are pretty close.
There was also this instance where he asked me to go out to buy stuff with him. I said I didn't feel like going since it was rather late, and I was tired. One of his very attractive girl friend decided she wanted to go along with him. He agreed, but then asked me another time to see if I had changed my mind. It seemed to me that he cares about my feelings, but I am unsure if he was trying to show that he had not forgotten about me (his good friend) and just running away with some other attractive girl.
He never talks about relationships and I never tried asking him. I only got to know (from this other girl) that he had told her, he didn't want a relationship until he is done schooling. I'm really confused as to what exactly he wants from me. Does he like me? And what do his actions show?
Well, from what you said, it appears on the surface that he likes you just as a friend. .. But you never know, maybe he'll see you differently. Just don't count on it, so that you don't get your hopes up for something that might not happen.
Theres a lot of different ways this could fall, but I'm going to go with my gut on this one. You know from outside sources that he's not interested in getting into a relationship until after he's done with school. In a lot of ways what he's doing is just a sign of him being a good guy. Ideally a good guy, a good person, would treat everyone they meet with kindness and wellness.
If I were to call the ball off the cuff on this one I'd say that he's interested in you more than just a little, but his schooling and decision to leave relationships out of the picture take precedent.
With this in mind, him trying to pair you off with other people may be simply be because he sees that you're interested in him but doesn't want you to be trapped chasing something that can't happen.
He may realize that you are what he's looking for at the moment, but he can't have you for obvious reasons, and he'd rather be a close friend to you than not have you around him at all. He may also be a little protective of you and want to look after you and making sure you get treated right even if its not with him.
And who knows, maybe he's attempting to keep that small spark smoldering, and attempting to stay close to you, so that when he finally *is* available he can make his move.
