Search Results: finding out about girls ask guys

Started talking to someone really close to my ex that I have a child with.
This guy is real about everything. He doesn't lie to me he tells me when my now ex boyfriend lied to me.
A lot. That was a 5 year ordeal so won't go into that. BUT...

This guy is kinda hot. We have secrets, like I know things he don't want his mom or family finding out.
My secret is that I talk to him now, I used to be so depressed over the situation with my ex and I swear I haven't been happier since this guy cleared up my thoughts of things my ex liked to just leave me thinking about N it would make me sad.

So now talking to him and he says things like...

"He doesn't deserve you, your way too good for him Jamie.. He will get his karma, I promise you, don't be so broken hearted over him"

(He seriously does have a lot of bad karma coming. He took my car in winter and from his own child. Recently forced to sell his house, had chick lie about a pregnancy for 8 months, how I don't know haha)

Then today this guy helped me get to the store since the douche took my car...

After dropping me off he says "Maybe we can go have some drinks sometime..."
Then seen him again to go somewhere else and he texts after "If you need anything Jamie don't hesitate to ask me." Then I didn't text back.. then he texts again "Oh ya next time you see me I will have different clothes on. I feel like a bum but all I grabbed when I left was work clothes and what I was wearing"

Even tho he still looked nice to me. He is pretty hot. Tattoos, drives a nice truck, etc.

SO THE QUESTION:

Do you think he is taking an interest in me? Why would I care about what he was wearing? Are guys just subconcious about looks around any girls?

I will update this question if anything else happens too. :)

When I was younger, about ten or so, a shop assistant asked my stepmother if her son had any preferences after finding out I was looking to spend birthday money on a toy. I wasn't a boy. I still am not a boy.

I was walking through an almost empty classroom to get to the canteen when I was in yr eight. There were two year twelve boys sitting by the door. They asked me if I was a guy or girl (I was in the sports uniform) and when I said girl and left I heard one guy say 'poor thing sounded too used to answering that question.'

I was such a cute kid, and I guess I'm pretty good looking now beneath the pimples, but I do have an admittedly boyish face. It doesn't help that I keep my hair short and walk around in jeans and hoodies that do an unintended good job at hiding my breasts.
So I get misgendered a pretty decent amount.

I wanna know if anyone else runs into this same thing?
I won't call it a problem because I don't really care if someone mis genders me. I'm just curious how many other people it happens to.
