So my best guy friend asked me out and I said yes, eventhough I wasn't too sure about it, it came as a surprise to me... We both go to uni in different areas and cos it was exam time we hadn't seen each other too much and we hadn't kissed or that. He asked me then one day a few weeks later if we could just be friends because he was worried it would mess up our friendship. I agreed with him and things went back to normal. I was sorta relieved cos it felt as though there was too much pressure on us or something. But after awhile I started to regret it, not that I could have changed his mind or anything. Anyway, since then we've started to hang out loads. We spend two or three week nights together, something we never used to do. When he drops me home he always texts saying what a great time he's had and stuff like that. We text all day everyday and he's always asking me to do stuff with him. He asked me to go away with him recently. Everytime I go somewhere with him my friends say "he'll say something tonight", but he never does. We've even been to the movies together. Everything we're doing lately is so "couple-y". The way he acts and the messages he sends and the things we do. He's given me a nickname and he's just being so sweet.. And I had thought that maybe he was building up to asking me out again, but it's been a few weeks now so I'm kinda confused. Is he just being nice? Or is he trying to see what'll happen? One night when we were out he text me in the early hours of the morn when he would have been drunk saying "look I love u", I didn't get it til the next day when I got up and when I replied to him (I just said I didn't know whether to ask about it or not) he said that someone had sent that msg. from his phone. When I said okay he asked "do you not believe me?". I said I do and the issue was never raised again. I'm afraid to ask him incase he doesn't have feelings for me and I make everything really awkward, but could he be feeling the same way? If I knew for sure that he wanted something with me I would probably say something to him. But when I think about it, I just can't come uo with anything to say. Any advice? Is he just being friendly?

i think the reason he broke up with you in the first place was because you were making it awkward. just tell him how you feel and if it doesn't work then go back to friedns

He definitely wants more, but he's using a trick he's learnt from an episode of Seinfeld in order to spend time with you, without putting himself emotionally "out there".

If you want a relationship with him, you don't need to confront him with it - just start treating him as your boyfriend and he'll get the picture. If you don't want a relationship and you just want to be friends, tell him that you need a bit of space and that he's unintentionally making you feel like his girlfriend.

He's not being "friendly," he definitely likes you. He likely feels afraid like you, so both of you are in this awkward limbo of uncertainty. You must both confront your feelings and take that plunge. Love is a risk and you'll never know what happens unless you try. Good luck!

He obviously has interest in you, but does not want the friendship messed up by making it a relationship. Most people don't know how to keep a friendship once they have crossed the relationship barrier. I don't quite understand why, but that's how it goes. He wants your friendship, he doesn't want the drama and sillyness that happens when it becomes more. If you can find the secret to keeping your friendship through a relationship, please let the world know. Right now it seems like that is what he is doing. He is actually dating you without you knowing it. He is trying to keep your friendship. The guys a genius in my book

I think you should just let it ride. Until he says he wants to be exclusive, treat him as a friend. I mean cut everything OFF NOW!

If your conduct with him is not like your conduct with your other male friends, change it until they match.

Don't open your schedule or change your plans just because he calls, live your live, keep yourself busy and when he Mans up and ask the question if you want to be exclusive, than you will know, if he never ask, you still have a wonderful friend.
