Search Results: do girls ever make the first move

In September I moved from an all girls school to a mixed sixth form. there's this boy in 2 of my classes and he's also moved, from an all boys school. (so neither of us have ever had a girlfriend/boyfriend or been around the other gender much haha). were both 16. so we got put in like a seating plan at the beginning of the year in one of the classes, and we both get on really well. our banter is great, we have loads of jokes and laugh tons etc. and get on like a house on fire. it comes from both sides (I don't feel like I'm trying harder to make convo than he is or anything) as we've gotten to know eachother we first added eachother on snapchat and now message quite often too. In the other lesson we don't sit together but he's often looking over at me just briefly for a second or two. also, when we talk together, he'll often touch my arm and that sort of thing. I don't know.

But the thing is, when we're outside of class we smile at eachother in the corridors or in the common room but we never talk to eachother. sometimes I'll say hi if we pass by but he'll just smile. Often he'll open my snapchats but not reply, and I'm always the first to start the conversation, unless he wants to copy my work or something lol. Also, if we're moving from one lesson together to another, he'll just leave and like doesn't wait or anything... it's so confusing, is it just a boy thing or is he just only interested in talking to me in class?

also a few weeks ago one of his friends whispered to me 'he likes you, he told me'. and ever since then whenever I walk into the class, his friend (the one who told me) and this other boy call out the guys name and are like 'look who's here'. throughout the lesson they also make jokes about me and this guy being together and stuff... but I don't know whether its just to wind him up, and they're just being boys lol. I almost feel as if since this has started he's become more distant...

sorry this is so long haha but do you th
