Does my guy friend like me?

[Anonymous]

me and my guy friend have been close friends for about 6 months and lately i’ve been noticing things that i think aren’t normal for a friendship.

for starters we talk every day from morning to like 3 am and it’s a nonstop conversation on many social media platforms. he always flirts with me through his words and his actions.

he looks at my lips, he puts his hand on my thigh, he looks very deeply into my eyes, he calls me ugly as a joke but then says i look good, he hugs me and grabs my waist and just overall flirts a lot with me.

one day he invited me to a party and we both got drunk and that day he was very touchy with me, so much like never before which made me question our friendship a lot. our friendship is very weird because we always tease each other and call each other funny things but we’ve both said we do it in a caring way.

my friends have told me that they see this amazing chemistry between us and think we’re gonna end up together. people always ask us about each other and even his friends have asked me about him.

yet neither of us have ever said anything about us being more than friends which is why it’s confusing for me because he does all these things like physical contact but he’s never said anything to me about how he feels which is why i’m not sure what his true feelings are.

It sounds like he does but might not know how to start the conversation so he's been showing through actions. Talk to him about it, see if you have feelings for him to.

yeah, it’s funny because people have asked him about me and people have asked me about him but we just never mention anything about it. which is why it makes me think if maybe he’s also scared of ruining our friendship if he said something

It's a difficult situation. If someone is a good friend you wouldn't want to do anything to risk that. There are only two real options, don't do or say anything about it and always wonder, or talk about it with each other like adults and have a possibly awkward conversation.

[Asker]

yeah i totally agree, if i don’t say anything i’ll always wonder what could’ve happened if i said something. how do you think i should approach the topic?

It sounds like he has taken it up a notch. Do me a favor and not try to label it. Too much pressure and it might shut him down. Perhaps, he will formally ask you out and move forward.

The real test of interest in you is if he hangs out with you all the time. It shows that he's happiest whenever he's with you and there's nowhere else he'd rather be.

the easiest way to truly find out is the easiest thing and that is to just ask, think about what you want to know and put the question

[Asker]

i think so too, but i don’t wanna make things awkward between us :(
