I need some help. Please.

I’ve been speaking to a guy I know on msn for about a year. We speak often and get on pretty well. I really like him. We have some mutual friends who we’re both close to, but it’s taken a long time for us to speak. I joined his class a few weeks back but we didn’t really talk. Every time I saw him it was like he ignored me, so I did the same back.

I don’t know whether my friend knows that I like him. There was a time last year where she knew that I fancied him because I made it really obvious. Since then I’ve been hiding how I feel so I’m not sure if I’ve convinced her. She told me last year that when she asked him if he fancied me he wouldn’t answer. She told me later that he fancied me, but I think it was a joke.

She’s been saying lots of little things about me and him, just like little hints. Over the last few weeks she’s been saying stuff like “You should go with him” and “You should dance with him” (at a party), and she even said once that we should go out. I ask her why but she just goes “He’s cool” or “I dunno” every time. I have no idea whether she does the same to him.

He finally made an effort to talk to me at a party recently. He came over to sit with my friend and me. He said ‘hi’ to me, first time ever, and was trying to make me laugh and talk to me. I got the impression that he was glad to break the ice between us and I think he knows I’m shy. But I don’t know how he feels about me. I tend to catch his eye a lot, but one of us looks away pretty much straight away. He talks to me a lot on msn too. But then he seemed pretty cool when I spoke to him.

Do you think my friend knows something? I don’t know what it is with these little hints, because she only says it about him. And do you think he likes me? Or am I just getting my hopes up? I think I am.

Sorry, I think I gave the wrong impression of my friend. She's one of my best friends but also one of his so if anyone would know anything about how either of us feel it would be her. That's why I'm suspicious of her. I'm wondering if she's hinting something or whether she's testing me to see if I still like him. But I don't know what to think.

Thanks for your replies :)

i use to really like this one guy too, and my cousin kept telling me the same things, we use to talk alot! and lots in common, anyways my cuzin kept telling me to talk to him and stuff, we talked alot but not in person when i see him in person we just hug and say "hi" then for the rest of the time he ignores me but every once in a while he would make an attempt to talk to me but he was good friends with my cuzin and would also talk to her alot then later i realized he had a crush on my cousin ( i found out because i asked him) and my cuzin was trying to get us together so he wouldnt like HER, anyways you should just ask him , im super shy and was to afraid to ask him in person so i asked him on msn... if you like someone just be straight up and honest about the way you feel and if you too shy ask im on msn.. dont get yourself fixed up for a heartbraking, cuz somthing sounds fishy..

texas_princess agony auntSounds like you are both just really shy... and I'm hesitant to give too much advice regarding you and this guy until I find out why you are so concerned with what your friend thinks and why you are friends with someone like her that you obviously don't trust?
