Does he actually like me or is he just a flirt?

So there's this guy in my class. My year is really small, so I've sort of known him for the last two years. In the past, because we're both kind of flirtatious in general, I guess you could say we've always flirted with each other. Recently, though, I think something has changed. Firstly, he sits with me everytime we have class together (although this could be because he doesn't want to sit alone). Also, the way he flirts seems different, like he'll say 'I love you so much,' which I haven't heard him say to anyone else, and it's sort of awkwardly placed in conversations. Then, he'll blurt out randomly things like, 'I'm skyping you tonight' or 'no, don't leave yet', or call me randomly to make sure I haven't forgotten I have class soon. He's also gotten kind of physical. Im flirting with other girls, he's done things like sit in their laps or whatever little thing seemed funny at the time, but he's recently started touching me in little ways, like he'll brush my leg to get my attention or sit really close to me at the table. Plus, he's offered to walk with me to get something to eat or pay if I can't, and has even walked me home, taking the long way to his bus stop.

The thing is, though, that I don't know if this is much different from the regular teasing and casual flirting he does with other girls. Plus, to a certain extent, he acts according to what he thinks he should do in those circumstances, so it's hard to tell if he's just playing along with my flirting.

Up until today, I had pretty much ignored the increased flirting, since he's had a long distance relationship for a while now, but in a conversation today, he made a comment about his ex-girlfriend's dog when I pointed one out. I'm not sure how to read this situation. Is he just playing along and flirting like before, or is it safe to say he's probably interested?

well lets hope he asks you out, then it would definitely mean he is :)

I doubts he does same extent of flirting with every other girl, that would take too much work. It's pretty much safe to say he likes you :)

aunt honesty agony auntIt sounds to me like yes he is interested, however I don't know him personally so I might be wrong and he might actually be like this with all girls. It is hard for me to tell. Is he seeing someone long distant at the moment? If he is in a relationship, stay clear and cut the flirting because to me this just means that he is not a nice person. However if it is his ex girlfriend, and he is single then flirt away. If you like him and want to take it to the next step without actually being to forward well then why not suggest you both meet up some weekend to catch a film or whatever it is you like to do. There is no harm in asking him, and if he says no well then least you kind of know where you stand with him. Good luck.
