How do you slightly cocky but inexperienced guys flirt?

[Anonymous]

how do we us girls know you are not playing games and you actually like us?
There is this guy that is very flirty towards me but I happen to know he is very inexperienced (one school girlfriend).

He sometimes comes across a very confident and flirty and then when I flirt back a bit more aggressively he turns slightly shy and just giggles.

Guys tell me what is going on and how I should go about it as I really like him.

Because why would we waste time on a girl we didn't like? I dont get why y'all think every guy wants to play you lol

I don’t think he wants to play me but why if he is flirting and I flirt back he hides away?

When we act serious all the time. He's just showing you sides of himself, so don't take that personally.

if he wasn't playing you could get that and wouldn't be suspicious

But using a lot of liquid courage, I hear.
