Search Results: reading signals wrong

I'm feeling a little bummed after realizing my buddy is not into me afterall. I've been reading the signals all wrong. So, i'm now contemplating treating myself to a feel-better session after work. Should i go for a run / shopping therapy or have dinner at that restaurant and bar in town?

My guy friend who I've known for a few months has been baffling me. I'm not sure if he likes me.
This is a little long, I apologise. I shall summarise it in bullet points, please let me know of your opinions :)

1. He often says my name about, sometimes using my nickname and my last name in a sentence. For example, let's say my name is Katherine Aniston.
"Don't be stupid, Kat Aniston"
2. He maintains eye contact with me when having conversations, not intense.
3. He often says "Shut up Kat." in a joking manner, even when I'm not speaking sometimes and he will look at me with a smirk/smile on his face.
4. He once made a funny remark about me, and I gave him a long "death stare" during this he kept eye contact, and then winked, and maintained eye contact afterwards.
5. When I do something silly he will say "What have you done now Kat?" or "Oh my God! What have you done?"
6. He will often glance at me or in my general direction, sometimes even looking at me when I speak to someone else, (I can see from the corner of my eye).
7. Sometimes when I have a smile on my face, he will notice, and ask when I'm smiling about, no one else tends to ask as they do not notice.
8. Sometimes when I let out a small laugh, he will looks instantaneously in my direction, and then look away, this often happens a lot.
9. He ONCE, touched my face softly, not in a caressing fashion, but this was done on a night out with our group of friends, he also touched my upper back twice lightly.
10. He has a toy gun, at which at any given opportunity he likes to shoot me with it.
11. He had recently started mimicking what I said such as "where did I fork, that's what you sound like" in a joking manner
12. If he says anything that he believes has upset me when he meant it as a joke, he will apologise and make sure I know he was joking and didn't mean it.

He gives me more attention sober than drunk.. Not consistent behaviour?

Do I have a chance?

Ok so, I have been into this grl foir a while, a few months. I was getting mixed signals, she keeps hanging out but won't talk or shell ask me out but she doesn't act like she's interested when we hang out.. For a while I thought maybe she is shy. But then how can shge ask me out. So I got tired of it, and i finally asked her 'what he wanted from me.' She said :

"Don't ask me that. I don't want you to do what you think i want, I want you to do what you want, and let me DECIDE if what you want is something I want, and or can be compatible with. If you are acting just to get something, then we will never know if we would work together.. Stop treating me like I am playing games, just because I want you to be honest in what you say and what you do--To be who who you really are insterad of trying to figure me out and control everything. "

Guys im really confused. I did not think i was doing all of this, but maybe i was / am. Is she saying she might actually want something? Am i reading that wrong? I can not tell if she is rejecting me, or saying she is considering me. What do you think?

I would appreciate advice.
I am just thinking what the hell is up.
Do I have a chance, What is she asking?
Is it a cofde for something, do you think its a game?
Is she toying with me, or is it possible I have not been clear?
Is this a normal way for her to talk?
What was I supposed to say?
Did i mess up my chances being quiet.
I know i paused too long, but it was out of no where.

I know I seem inexperienced but I have had gfs.. I just do not understand her. She is just different. But I do like her. But I feel so dumb around her sometimes. We are not even having sex. Not to be a jerk but its been months and we are not dating or having sex, so I just dont understand and I feel like she is blaming me... Is it my fault? This is like a headace that will not leave. Not her, just this.
