Why does my crush tickle and poke my stomach/ waist?

[Bubblemonster]

My crush always tickles and pokes me around my waist area. He sometimes grabs around my waist and tickles me. I can't help but to laugh. So why is this? Is just something guys do to their girl friends? Or what?

it could be that he is being playful or an excuse to touch you? he may enjoy your reaction if you are quite ticklish :p

He's probably flirting and trying to use an excuse to touch you. :)

Being playful/teasing you. Breaking the touch barrier and try to get comfortable with you.

It a form of flirting.

So could this be a sign that he likes me?

[1GuyOpinion]

It could be. Or not.

It just flirting. For fun or with intention. Nobody know except him.

it's just a playful gesture basically :-)
