Is this a jerk move?

I’m really new to the dating scene and it’s kind of showing now lol. But there’s this girl that I like and my like new new friend likes her too. He was talking to her in Spanish by me and I guess he told her “I like you and you need to tell me now if you like me back” then she just stared at him. Now I was in a similar situation a couple years ago, and my dad said to just go after that girl. This one though rejected him I think at least but he’s it was his last week I think. Now I don’t even know if she likes me and I’ve not asked her out. I just want to see from a outside voice if it’s a smart choice with continuing liking her. He seems like a very reasonable guy so not going to spark up a fight or violence based on this but I don’t know I like her a lot even before I’ve known him.
