Search Results: too much teasing

In 7th grade I became friends with this boy and never had any feelings 4 him. Until a friend said he was cute which I disagreed to atm but I started paying a bit more attention to him & noticed that it seems like he likes me? (stares, teasing, smiles, body contact, talking, treating me diff, etc) I was in denial of my feelings for him at first but I soon gave in and now I find myself with a crush (maybe more) on him. Now, we’re in 8th grade and he’s in my classes again and he still acts like he likes me specifically. My friends were completely convinced he had strong feelings for me too. Until, the convo came up about who we like & he was guessing everyone in our class and then stopped and said “wait.. it better not be me” but he didn’t say it seriously and I couldn’t pass up this opportunity so I boldly said “but it is” and then he was smiling but said he only saw me as a “friend” and I should consider this as a rejection. After that I ofc said it was a joke and I didn’t like him. But he said he liked a girl in 7th grade, still does that was in our class and gave me hints with the # of letters in their name and the only people who matched up w that was me and this other popular taken girl who he knows nothing about. I guessed her and he said it was but doesn’t know why he likes her. .-. Anyway, this was surprising bc prior to that, his bff was telling me he likes me and “has feelings for me” but he said it was a joke but it also wasn’t? And after that guessing game mishap, a few days later his bff gets the chance to talk to me alone. And he took that whole time telling me more about my crush & giving me info I NEVER asked for + trying to like persuade me to like him and date him in a way. “Imagine if you were together” “give him a chance” are some quotes from that convo. It was confusing af because I never even brought him up, he did. (THE REST OF THE TEXT IS IN THE PHOTO SORRY I TALK TOO MUCH SO IT’S SO LONG LOL)

So this one's a doozy, so bear with me.

Today I was let go from my position at a certain party supply retail chain. I was temp so I expected it, but this week I had begun to speak to a co-worker I hadn't had much time to speak to aside from small talk and I think we were getting along really well.

First off, recently I broke up with my ex boyfriend who had cheated on me. I came in the day after finding this out and this kid, who we'll call J asked me what was wrong after his usual sarcastic greeting for me (usually "oh shit it's Vicky the life of the party. Holy fuck" dumb shit like that). So I explain the whole situation and thus began the running joke of him calling me crazy because I "have thing for guys who aren't over their exes" and basically any excuse to call me crazy, even for nothing. I think he liked how it annoyed me.

He seemed weirdly interested in my love life, asking how my boyfriend was after the breakup, to which I'd correct him and he'd tease me going "what you don't looOoooOoove him?" and stupid shit like that. It sound rude but it really wasn't, it was very playful.

He would also begin to sing the songs that would play on our store radio that would play the same playlist every two hours to annoy me, which I admit wasn't too terrible and I played up my reaction because his singing voice wasn't that bad.

On my last day, which was yesterday he complimented my hair which I had in a braid that day.

Now for the issue. I don't know if he's naturally flirty or if he's just a doofy guy. That, and now that I'm out a job, I have no reason to go to the store and get his number or snap or smth. I think if I was able to go back I'd be able to grab his number but I have no reason to go back without seeming weird. So I'll leave a poll as to whether you think he likes me and if you have any ideas as to how to go about talking to him again, please comment. Thanks
