Search Results: sending mixed signals

so pretty much, i like this guy but he’s sending mixed signals. i was talking to him and his close friend about who he likes and at first i said sssss... but then said another girls name (the s came out by accident) and his friend was like wait who were you gonna say and then i was talking to a girl he’s friends with and she suggested who she thinks he might like (whose name starts with s). also, he asked the same girl i was talking to for a hug, but when i asked him for a hug, he said no. he also teases me about my height (cause i’m short haha) and him and his friend do this eyebrow raise thing that annoys me and they know it does. although that happens, he’s still pretty respectful to me and nice. he also looks at me a fair bit? and whenever my friends tease him about him and i, he doesn’t really say much. he just awkwardly smiles or punches them? it’s a bit weird.

So, I was sitting next to my crush at a circular table at lunch, and he was facing towards me with his leg propped up on his other knee. When I went to adjust the bottom of my shirt, I brushed my hand against his knee.

I immediately said a soft "Oh, sorry."

My crush jokingly replies with "(My name), it's not okay."

I laugh and reply, "Well, I don't know what I could do to make it better."

The other instance was during that same lunch, when my crush nudged his arm into mine when he was eating. He kinda just left his arm there, so I shoved his arm back while saying "Child," in a slightly whiny tone. I pushed his lunch box back towards him too.

My crush responds playfully with "(My name), do you wanna fight?"

I grinned and said "Yes."

So he suddenly shoved himself overtop the table towards me, literally inches from me.

I exclaim, laughing, "(Crush's name)!"

He sat back down laughing too.

A lot of times we will be sarcastic or playful with each other like that. Is that flirtatious?

Because if it is, I'm confused because my crush has told his friends that he's not interested in dating or relationships with anyone because it gets in the way of things.

Yet, he acts like this around me. He even was going to go alone with me to the movies (but we didn't cause of last minute things that got in the way)!!

! Why is he sending mixed signals? Is he even interested in me?
