Does he like me? I am getting mixed signals.

Question - (20 November 2007) 3 Answers - (Newest, 30 November 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I'm in college and absolutely head over heels about this guy that I know from high school. We rarely spoke in high school but after leaving school I've gotten to know him slightly better but still not very well.

I bump into him nearly every weekend at parties and such because we hang out mainly with friends from high school, many of whom are mutual friends.

A couple of months ago we were at a friend's party and he was pretty drunk. I waved to him when he came through the door and he came over and put his arm around me, which isn't something he would normally do. Throughout the night he was pretty affectionate with me, putting his palm up to give me a high five and then closing his fingers around my hand, calling to me to come sit next to him on the couch and so on. But towards the end of the night when he was either sobering up or feeling the nasty effects of too much alcohol he became quite withdrawn and didn't speak to me.

I feel as though he's giving me mixed signals. One night he's holding my hand, the next day he pretends nothing happened, a week later he's really sweet and buys me ice-cream, then he totally ignores me, then teases me, then has sex with his ex-girlfriend.

Does he or does he not like me? Is he still in love with his ex-girlfriend?

I've been flirting with him a little but I'm not sure if he's picking up on it. He knows I'm single as he's asked casually if I was still with a guy I was going out with and I said no that ended quite awhile ago.

I just wondered if there's a possibility he likes me, his mixed signals are too hard for me to read!

Almost the exact same thing is happening to me. Last night we were asking eachother random questions and he said "Think about this. You like someone, you really like them and you're pretty sure they like you too, but this stupid awkward thing is happening where neither of you is starting anything. What do you do?" [pretty sure it was a hint] and I told him that I would get the person to a point where they have no choice but to give a straight answer. Yes or no. You just hope to GOD that they know whats going on [and theres me hinting back!]. After that he didn't say much. But I am in love with him. So I'm gonna do exactly what I told him I would do and I suggest you do that too!

Long explanation I know but I wanted to get it all out! =]

TomWilkinson agony auntIt sounds like he does like you, he just may not know if you like him too.

Having sex with his ex doesn't mean he's still in love with her, it could very easily be sex for the sake of it (we all have needs!).

The way he was being at the party sounds different and backs up that he isn't confident enough to act like that without it until he knows you feel the same. Also, it was very nice, he obviously doesn't just see you as a conquest, these are telltale signs he likes you.

Go for it, the worst that can happen is you stay nothing more than friends!

Good luck =)
