If a guy teases you about liking another guy? BUT... (Keep reading)

So...

What does it mean when a guy (in this case, unfortunately my crush) teases me about another guy?

I have to say I DO NOT like the other guy (he is my friend, let's call him 'Harry') and I made that point clear. I even told my crush, the one teasing me, that my best friend 'Lily' was in love with 'Harry', but they never went out. It was like skinny love (they looked so adorable yet they didn't tell each other their feelings).

The thing is, he teases me but he is not laughing or anything, he says my name plus 'Harry's last name, but he doesn't show any expression or barely smirks. I don't understand that. When a guy teases you, he shows this smirk or smile on his face waiting for the girl's reaction, but he is a bit serious.

Also, he nerver calls him 'Harry' he calls him another names that sound like Harry. He calls him Barry, for example (knowing 'Harry' isn't my friend's real name).

What does this behavior say to you?

:) Thank you for taking your time and reading this. And if you take the time to answer, thanks in advance as well.

I would imagine he likes you. Guys tease girls we like, it's just a way we interact. Ask him how he feels, he might be shy and this is his way of communicating he likes you. You taking the first step would make it easier on him and yourself, since you seem so anxious to figure out what's going on. His being serious might also be just how he is, I have a friend who never smiles but is a very happy person. He just doesn't display his emotions easily. Good luck with your situation!
