Search Results: guy friend acts weird

I suspect a guy friend has feelings for me based on his actions. He stares, gets jealous, observes me and focuses on me, remembers details I tell him, he reads me like a book, knows how I feel (attuned to me), wants my attention all the time, wants to contact me, acts nervous around me, avoids eye-contact up close and sometimes shows me his soft side (sends me songs, and compliments me etc). Other people around us notice it too and have told me multiple times "he likes you".

He keeps asking me what I feel for him, and he wants to know whether I like him or not. But the weird part is, whenever I try to talk about his feelings, he denies it. It's almost as if he gets nervous when I notice his actions. Why does he want to know what I feel if he isn't interested. Don't guys usually avoid a girl that likes them if they're not interested?

He becomes super defensive and says no, but his explanation changes every time. He gives me a different excuse every time he tries to deny it. He already knows I like him, so he isn't afraid of rejection.

I mean, it's fine if he doesn't like me, I'm fine with being friends... but why is he so defensive? Just be calm and tell me "no". What's the big deal?

There's a guy I know online, and I have a weird relationship with him, where I used to be his 'fan', but then we kinda became friends. And now I don't know how to act with him, particularly in this current situation

I'm An art student, currently doing a project all about drawing people, I want to use this guy's photos as one of my references, and I'm not sure if I should ask him first. If he was just a friend I knew personally I'd feel weird not asking him first, but if I was just a fan and he was just some celeb, it would feel weird and unecessary to ask permission

I'll Give a brief summary of our relationship to help out things into context. I've Been following him since 2020, and he followed me back and began talking to me as a friend 5 months ago. We had plans to meet up, him visiting me and then me him, but got cancelled. (He said he still wants last time I asked to but nothing solid anymore) He hasn't talked to me as much since he got in a relationship in January, but still does a little and still follows me.

So yeah, after all that I don't know how familiar I should be acting with him?

Basically, should I ask first, or just go ahead and draw him like I would any other celeb?

So my friend group is weird

This question is more for girls , I’d prefer a girls take in this question.

There’s one girl they all talk badly about since she’s more distant and I think I’m probably the same I just don’t know it because how would I hear it.

But I notice it with this other girl they act a bit miserable in her company and try to leave early etc.

Do they do the same to me?

I’m not negative at all, I’m up for dancing, karaoke but at the same time more of a quieter member of the group. I’ll have fun but I’m an introvert.

I do notice in the only one who gets hit on by guys. But I just say thanks and continue to have fun with my friends which is why I went out in the first place. I don’t talk about guys and I don’t bring it up like “omg did you see he spoke to me etc”. I just move on from it.

Yet whenever I’m not there they seem to do mroe on nights out and all enjoy it mroe.

Is it possible by me just being involved but more quit I “ruin the night” or lessen it or it’s better without me being there. I do have a more different sense of humour in that I am up for a laugh with literally anything and not bothered about embarrassing myself. But I don’t say or do things the group wouldn’t, like I’m not constantly making sex jokes or making a show of myself.
