Guys, Is booping someones nose a form of flirting?

[Anonymous]

A male mate (we aren't really super close. Never hang out privately nor text nor anything) booped my nose today. It came so out of nowhere it confused me a bit as I never had someone do that especially midsentence?

He was saying something among the lines of:

"'that's why' then he booped my nose 'I am doing that soon'"

He also drew on my uniform today and wrote that I was annoying. (Playful banter ofc) And he occasionally fixes my clothes or picks fluff out of my hair.

I don't know if he's just being friendly or if there's some form of attraction there?

Yeah he's flirting with you... but booping your nose? That one's a weird one, like he think you're 5 or something?

He's 33. I am 27. You shoulda seen my face when he did it. I was so utterly confused about the fact he did it I didn't even really react to it or mirrored it I was just confused
