Does my childhood crush like me?

[MarsLover]

The other night when I was on the phone with my guy crush, we were talking about a lot of things. He asked me questions like "Where do I work, What is my occupation, How much I make, What are my college hours/days, He even asked me "How do I keep man (relationship wise) mentally and physically" ? And he said something about if I was to come and visit him in Texas, If someone asked why am I in his room? He would tell them that we're getting married. I've known my guy crush for years, we've been childhood friends. My mom and his mom have been best friends since we we're kids. Plus he and I dated a few times and we had intimacy for the first time without protection (afterwards we used protection). When we're on the phone late at night, we listen to each others rhymes (music) and he gives me great feedback from my lyrics/verses. Also he appreciates me calling and talking to his mom (she always tells me she loves and misses me). He did tell me last night that I have beauty and that I can get a guy if wanted to. I live in California and he lives in Texas (stationed). He confuses me sometimes, because when we're on the phone, If he's been drinking or not, he'll flirt with me and make little comments and laugh but then wants to change subjects. He's not really a phone person, but when we talk our conversation goes on for like 2 hours or more. And he's told me that he doesn't stay on the phone that long with other people. He went to a strip club with his home boys lastnight and he's told me before that he's not into that kind of stuff, when I was on the phone with him he decided to stay on the phone with me. And I asked him, wouldn't you rather look at them versus talking to me? And he said no, they have nothing on you, I would give my money to you, And I was like what? Huh? Then hen he goes I'm your friend so that's why I said it, (FYI He was drinking). I asked him to call me when he got home safe and he did. He brought up our fun times when he took me out for ice cream.

Is he being shy about this?

He probably likes you, after all you two have been through why not just ask?

[MarsLover]

I did and he still hasn't gave me a answer, like I think he's shy. I'm not trying to get into a relationship with him because he's already told that he wasn't ready to commit, I just wish he would tell me that he likes me, but I think he's being shy or waiting for the right time when we see each other.

He's being shy.

He also told me I was beautiful over the phone, and he said when I come to visit him in Texas, he would spend time with me and show me around Dallas.

He also told me that the wallet that I ordered him, was the 1 he saw and wanted when he was at Nordstroms (That is so crazy) It's a Jack Spade wallet and I had no idea he was planning to get it for himself. He then text me saying thank you for everything and I said, Everything? I didn't do anything? Does it seem like he will tell me eventually or when the time is right (That he likes me) 😕
