We all live in different towns so we do not see each other often.As a family we quickly hug each other and give each other a fake peck on the cheek (kiss air)when we greet and leave. Our hugs are different he makes sure he puts his arms right around me and squeezes me tight (all other family members barely touch each other), holds on for longer and gives me a real kiss on my cheek and not in the ordinary manner like the rest of the family nor does he do this to anyone else in the family. On one situation we all got together for a celebration we arrived that day and he greeted me with his usuall hug and kiss, later at the celebration when I arrived at the venue he patted the seat next to him for me to sit down so I did (my partner sat opposite me). He then put his hand on my thigh and started to rub it at the same time asking me how I was and I kept catching him looking at me throughout the night then he would quickly turn away when he saw me looking. This was when I began to think something was not right.The last time I saw him the greeting was the same and once again I kept catching him looking at me and he would follow me into different rooms and the garden. When we said goodbye this time he whispered to me when he kissed me and told me that he loves me.Am I being paranoid or am I right to be concerned. Reply to this Question

He's rubbed your thigh, and told you he loves you...
That is much more than normal nephew behaviour.
Back away a bit and make sure you sit next to your partner. Be a bit more loving to your partner in front of this boy.
There is no need to have a horribly awkward conversation with him, but let him know that you are taken and nothing is ever going to happen.
If anything more happens either tell him that it's not appropriate and he MUST not do anything like that again... or get your partner to have a word.
Good Luck!! xx
