Search Results: does my crush like me back

His friend told me that he was really into me for years. He would sneak glances when I was distracted but never found the courage to come up and talk to me. Months later he met a girl in a lecture in college (which I also attended) that started flirting with him and he confidently flirted back. From then on he started dressing nicer to this lecture. Why didn’t he ever put in the effort for me if he had a crush on me for years?

So I have explained the before in my past posts, I went to this breakfast thing at our local public high school. We go to private school. About halfway through dinner my crush his sister and her friend decided to show up. His sister and her friend went up to me and said, why don’t you go talk to him he is right there. Of course I was embarrassed, but they got him to go to this hallway. He started running around the halls and he doesn’t know this place at all. He came back eventually and his sister and her friend left to go back to the lunchroom. These girls who are a few years younger than us came and got into all of this. One of them talked to him for a minute but he wouldn’t talk to her unless I was gone, so I went around the corner. The girls left and we talked a little bit. He eventually said I know you like me but I can’t see us together. Ik it sounds bad but there’s more. So he left the hallway and I guess he talked to his sis for a sec. His sister, her friend, and those girls came into the hallway. His sister said forget everything he just said wait on him he will come around. He really does like you he talks about you all the time. He says how your pretty etc. He never says anything bad about you. The reason he said that was because he can’t date or like anyone because of his grades rn. The girl who talked to him earlier said that he said he likes me and stuff too. I’m really confused what should I do.

Hey, so I have a huge crush on a male coworker. We are quite close at work and we flirt together. However, we are not in a position to date each other.

I saw him the other weekend and we were both a little drunk. I ended up telling him how I felt about him. I asked him if he liked me back and he said “you’re a lovely person”. I kept asking him, and he kept saying that I’m lovely. Eventually, he said “yes I do, but we can’t be together” and then we had a couple of quick kisses on the lips.

Since then, he’s been awkward around me at work. There is a stark contrast between how he was before and how he is now. He says that everything’s fine and our friendship is unaffected. He even said he didn’t remember what happened, even though I text him the next day apologising and he said it was fine.

Every time I’ve seen him outside of work and we’ve had a few drinks, he’s always been very huggy and has even nuzzled into my hair.

At work, he is hot and cold. He used to stare at me a lot but now he seems to avoid eye contact. And when we have lunch, he used to sit beside me or opposite me. But now he either sits by me but moves his chair further down the table or he sits diagonally opposite me.

I’ve noticed he does still joke with me and his voice goes soft if it’s just us two. Why is he being like this? Does he have feelings for me?

I have been working at my current company for almost 2 and a half years now. I've recently developed a crush on a colleague, but we've always had a flirty relationship. However, due to our situations, it would be almost impossible to have a relationship together. He's always been lovely to me and the flirting included things like him doing silly things to get my attention, staring at me, prolonged/strong eye contact, going out of his way to help me, seeming jealous about other men, organising the gifts/cards for my 30th birthday etc etc. I've always felt fairly confident that he felt the same way.

HOWEVER, a few weekends ago, we met up on a night out. I had too much to drink and I ended up telling him that I really liked him as more than a friend. I asked him if he liked me back, to which he said "you're a lovely person". I kept asking him, being persistent with it - he kept repeating “you’re a lovely person” and I eventually said "just answer the question", to which he replied "yes, I do but we can't be together etc". I think we had a few quick kisses on the lips, not a proper kiss, but a peck.

The day after, I apologised to him for potentially putting him in an awkward position, to which he said "don't worry about it".

The next week at work, he apparently wasn't aware of what happened. I told him that I had kissed him and he looked shocked, saying "that's not ideal, I wouldn't have kissed you properly". For the rest of the week, he barely spoke to me and was hot and cold in his behaviour towards me.

He has gotten better but he doesn't flirt with me like he used to before all this happened. He has shown being jealous because he overheard me saying I was going on a date. I saw him look in my direction and when I told him to have a nice weekend, he abruptly said “bye”

Was there any truth in him telling me that he likes me? Does he still like me? If so, why is he being weird?
