What can I do? Is it possible for him to like me?

[Anonymous]

I met a boy a while ago, and he's been doing me a lot of good. I think I'm liking him, and it's something I'm dreading. Some of his actions make it seem like he likes me, but I don't want to create hope where there isn't. I would like you to give an opinion on this and even on his actions.

for starters he asked me to go to the mall and hang out with him, but we are friends and i don't know how to interpret it.
last week he told me he talked about me to his friends (who don't know me), at first he didn't want to say what he said specifically, but then he told me he talked about how much I'm doing good for him.
at that, we got into a conversation being honest with each other, he said very nice things to me and i kept thinking if there is any possibility of this being reciprocal.

(he also sends me kitten videos, it looks like a marriage proposal)

I don't know, but you should figure out EXACTLY how you're feeling, and let him know, who cares if he ends up not liking you. It's important for you two to talk about what you want out of your friendship. Don't give up, and it's not impossible for him to like you. I bet there is lots to like about you.

your message was totally comforting, it sure made me feel confident in expressing myself, thank you for that

[TAZERIONA]

No problem! You got this!

[Asker]

I've been a week just thinking about what I'm feeling for him, I don't want to fool myself with some feeling. but as much as I want this to be just a guess, it's the first time I've felt something so intense

[Asker]

what really complicates it is that we are friends, I don't want our friendship to be ingrained, and I'm also afraid that he'll only see me as a friend

[TAZERIONA]

Yeah, I understand your concern, I think you should tell him that you don't want to ruin your friendship and then say how you feel. IF he just see's you as a friend sure it'll get awkward but within a few days, you'll literally be back to normal, and if he see's you as more than a friend then you two need to figure that part out together. What I do is I think of the worst thing that could happen, the best thing that can happen and the most likely thing to happen. It helps a lot you should try it. But trust your heart if you're not ready to tell him wait til YOU feel comfortable

If he is talking about being honest then you should ask him if this friendship is going somewhere.

Thanks for the MHO😎

There’s obviously some interest, but he’s probably unsure if you feel the same way

[Asker]

what do you think i should do? How can I show that I'm interested in the same way?

[Avicenna]

Spend time with him, compliment him

[Asker]

this doesn't seem to be too complicated, i'll try

[Asker]

Thank you for your help

[Asker]

by the way, do you have any specific compliments that you think would demonstrate this more?

[Avicenna]

Well, make them sincere. If you like his looks and personality, compliment them. Hopefully gets it that you’re interested. Touch his arm, do VC whatever take You’re comfortable with. Don’t be coy or ambiguous though.

[Asker]

I understand, now I know what to do. I will praise his voice, it's something he doesn't like very much, but it brings an inexplicable peace. I'm going to take the opportunity to think about more things, especially to make what I feel even more apparent.

[Asker]

I don't know if we'll see each other this week, but next weekend we'll probably go out. Do you think it would be weird if you tried to hold his arm? we only did it once

[Avicenna]

No, not at all. You need to make your feelings and attraction to him clear while hopefully not being clumsy or nervous about it

You can easily know u r lover like u r not send some message to him if he reply faster snd faster he must like u

[Asker]

this is a good point to look into, thank you very much

[Guy13]
