Search Results: flirty boyfriend and his past

The reason I ask for opinions is because I don’t believe he could ever like me. He is a beautiful 39 year old successful Italian man and I’m just me.

He owns a cafe and I’ve been a regular customer since it opened. We have a very flirty relationship and he does make sexual jokes and comments. He tends to go hot and cold also. He has gotten jealous in the past and he often asks if I have a boyfriend.

Yesterday I saw him and he was saying the man who marries me will be a lucky b*stard. He gave me a hug, pulling me tight against him. He also pulled my head into his shoulder/chest area. He then let me go because he remembered we shouldn’t be touching because of COVID.

Today he showed me some video on his phone. It was just a long video of the water he was swimming in. He was stood so close to me that our arms were touching.

He was telling his colleague not to look at my bum. I said “well I do have a nice bum”. He had a look and said “it’s ok, I’ve seen nicer bums” I think he was joking. He sometimes admits that he’s teasing me.

He then said “I could tell you that you’re the most beautiful girl in the world but you wouldn’t believe me because there is no most beautiful, there’s always someone better” and then said there are people better than him and better than me.

Is there any chance that he could be attracted to me?

People tell me that she "really likes me as a best friend", but if thats true, why is she weird towards me?
She once admitted that she's jealous of me.

Is she trying to 'use' me or something? She tries quite hard to befriend my friends, who she doesn't know very well. And she tells me all these stories of people who she was friends with and how they treated her badly... more like she's the one being weird towards them. So basically, she doesn't have many friends, and i can kinda see why.

She's acting hot and cold towards me, but is really friendly towards other people infront of me!!
She's been acting even weirder lately, she would walk past me, staring at me weirdly, and doesn't even say hi to me. She doesn't seem happy to see me, but yet, she still calls me her "best friend" when she's talking about me to others.

But whenever she does speak to me, She's always wanting to make plans with me and spend time with me (whilst acting weird and moody around me). So she's always trying to make plans, but is always moody towards me, whilst being nicer towards other people.

What doesn't help is that her boyfriend is sometimes flirty towards me (i don't like him that way, and i tell him to stop!!)
Her boyfriend is muslim and she's white, but she tries to be a muslim (dying her hair black and wearing fake tan, changing her accent! 😂 just to fit in with them) which i find odd!
