Hi,

This might sound a bit confusing by the time i've finished!!!

I really like a guy whos in the same year as me at college and have done for over a year now!!! I started liking him as more than a friend when we started talking more last April, he also told me that he liked me however a couple of weeks after this he told me that he was going out with a different girl!!! He's still going out with her now and it has been their one year anniversary this week!!!

He talks to me whenever he sees me at school, constantly pokes or pinches me and he also texts during most of his lessons!!! My friends have also picked up on us being very close and have started joking around this week saying that i fancy him, so does that mean that its obvious that i like him and that i am reading the signs wrong and he doesn't like me that way as they've only picked up on me and not him!!!!

I'm confused, everyone at school is right, and i do really fancy him!!! But what am i supposed to do, hes been going out with his girlfriend for a year now and if he really liked me wouldn't he have split up with her by now??? Am i supposed to just be a good mate to him whatever happens???

I also feel quite uncomfortable around him this week due to my friends giving me funny looks whenever he comes near me, or talks to me or touches me!!! What am i supposed to do??? Shall i just ignore them and carry on acting the way i was before???

Any advice would be grateful!!!

Thanks x-x-x

i agree. you dont want to be with someone that has been with someone for a year and flirts with another woman. what else does he do with other women? and if he did become your man, whats to stop him from doing the same thing to you?

If this boy really liked you then yes he would've left his girlfriend. It seems that apparently he likes the attention and is having fun flirting with you giving you all the wrong signals. I suggest that you tell him that you think his behavior is not appropriate and you think he should cool it unless he is ready to leave his girlfriend and make sure he leaves her before any of this behavior continues. Trust me, if this keeps going on you could end up with a bit of a bad image for "trying to steal a girls boyfriend away" even if you are not. Drop the guy and look for one that does not come with all this baggage.
