We hangout pretty often with our common group of friends as well as just the two of us (Theater, diner, movies at either of our places etc...)On a couple of occasions last year, we have kissed. I have attempted to ask him what were his intentions behind those actions but he made light of it. So I told him I would prefer for that to not happen again. The reason why I took that position was because I like him and didn't want that sentiment to deepen if he didn't want it to lead to anything.We kept our usual friendship and it seemed to work fine. Until this past holiday weekend. He invited me on a weekend trip with a group of his friends. During a group outing, he kept staying close to me and even put his hands on both sides of my waist. Considering that we were at a wine tasting right before that, I simply blamed it on the alcohol and brushed it off. However, the same thing happened the next day, no alcohol involved this time. He was behaving with me, the same way some of the actual couples in our group were interacting with each other. This isn't the first time I feel like he acts as more than a friend around me.After our conversation last year, I thought he didn't want anything more than a friendship, so it really confuses me when he acts the way he did this past weekend.Am I maybe reading way too much behind his actions because still kind of like him? Should I try to talk to him about it? If so what should I say? I absolutely wouldn't mind seeing this friendship evolve into something more, but I don't want to give him the wrong impression either. What should I do? Reply to this Question

 You need to find out where it's going. Just ask him straight up.

 Maybe he is just a very hands on friend. You will read in to everything if you still have feelings for him. If it was me in this situation then I would ask him straight out has he any feelings at all or is it just pure platonic. As it is unfair for you to be living in limbo not sure off what is happening.
