Does she like me or just want an ego boost from knowing that I like her?

A male United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I met a girl a few months back and we really got on well and it seemed we were about to get together properly until she went back to her cheating ex.

Anyway to cut a very long story short, she now happens to work with a female friend of mine and the other day my friend told me that she always brings me up into conversation and that on a night out she didn't want a bad photo taken of her in case I would happen to see it on a networking site.

I've always thought that she only went back to her ex because he was her first and she was to afraid of taking a chance. I'm not being cocky but I am better looking than the guy she's with and a far nicer person(as if that matters).

Anyway, I was wondering if any girls could tell me is the fact she brings me into conversation a good sign that she still likes me or do girls just like to know that a guy likes them to boost their ego? She shouldn't need an ego boost cos she is stunning but I dunno. Any ideas?

Hey man...I'm going through the same thing right now. There's this girl who I am very attracted to and like, but she has some unattractive qualities about her....vain, a bit insecure, a little manipulative even. But I know she does have a strong fondness for me and might even be a little attracted to me. However, at the same time, I sometimes wonder the same thing you do. I think she knows I am into her, I even told her I've liked her the more we've talked. She doesn't seem to reciprocate, but will contact me more than I contact her. She'll say she'd like to go out on a date or two with me but wouldn't want to get too involved and like me too much, or that I probably wouldn't want to date her. And I just think sometimes that she's just stringing me along because she's an insecure loser who always needs validation...pretty desperate sounding, huh? Why would she waste her time on me if she ultimately doesn't give a crap? Well, she does recognize a lot of good qualities I believe, but it's just not enough for her...she'll take the ego boost though. What a pathetic person if that's the case. :(

didda123 agony auntOf course it matters if you're a nicer person and i'm sure you are.

I am sure she does like you she wouldn't care what you thought of her picture if she didn't want to impress you and she's still thinking of you even on a night out.

If she is as stunning as you say i am sure she will get plenty ego boosts so she will not be looking for them deliberately from you.

I don't know if she has finished with her ex now or still with him but i wouldn't persue her until you know for definate it is over though you could make it known that you still really like her.
