Would a guy possibly be acting like this if he likes me as more than a friend?

[Anonymous]

I’ve known this guy for almost a year. He texts me almost every day and calls/FaceTimes multiple times a week and talks for hours. He calls me “babe”, “baby doll”, “darling”, and “my dear”, but in a kind of lighthearted and joking way. I personally don’t call my friends pet names, but i guess some people do? I don't know lol He remembers tiiiiiiiny little details I told him about myself ages ago. One day he’ll make loads of comments about me being pretty…then the next day he’ll insult my appearance 😒😂 He makes weird comments out of the blue accusing me of dating other guys. He teases me about other guys a lot. Whenever I ask him if there’s a girl he likes, he refuses to answer the question. Once I asked him how many girls are chasing him, and he said “2. But you’re not one of them.” He shared his screen with me on FaceTime once, and randomly started scrolling through his text messages between him and another girl…. it was so random He randomly mentioned his celebrity crush to me and called her his girlfriend, so I went ahead and mentioned my celebrity crush, and his response was “Stop crushing on another guy in my presence.” There’s other things that have happened that I could tell y’all about, but I don’t want this to get too long 😂 anyways…this guy claims to not be ready for a relationship with anyone right now, but literally everyone that knows us thinks we’re dating even though we aren’t. I don’t even know if he likes me as more than a friend or not. I’m so confused 😂

This guy has the maturity of an early teen but certainly not the one of an adult. This is harrowing to think that adults with that kind of thinking are walking the streets. Are you sure that he is not a child?

Obviously he has a crush on you but will not admit it. He is the jealous type of introvert person that has a huge psychological issue with women. I would say that he has a big inferiority complex.

What is a huge red flag is the fact that he calls you all those pet names. I would never allow a person to call me babe”, “baby doll”, “darling”. This is such a turn off.

If you have no feelings for him, then take your distance. That is the best that you can do.

What s wrong with babe?

[SueShe]

I perceive that term as a lack of respect. Mainly in English speaking countries, total strangers take the liberty to call others "honey", "sweetheart", "sweetie" or "darling".

In continental Europe or Asia, people don't take that liberty and adhere to social distancing.

Everyone has a first name. So why not use it instead of abusing those pet names?

[Monalisa77]

Not everyone knows your first name lol

Take care Sue I just wanna let you know that I’m leaving Gag now. I have my reasons I enjoyed your friendship. Take care 🤚

[SueShe]

Are you just going on the holiday leave for a while or definitely leave GaG never to return? Whatever you do, I wish you best of luck. You have always been a gentleman an fair person. May God be with you Lee

@Monalisa77 those that don't know me can call me "miss", those that know me can call me Mrs. XYZ and my family, relatives and close friends can call me by my first name but never with "babe" or any of those pet names.

Quit the texting and FaceTime childishness, and you will find your answers.

He 100% likes you. No guys call a girl babe without liking them unless the guy is gay. Also he seems like he is really trying to get you to ask him out, maybe he doesn't have the balls to do it.

Sounds like he definitely likes ypu as more than a friend

[Iron_Man]

Typical kid behavior doesn’t know what he wants, wants to make you jealous

This feels like the kind of a no-brainer lol
