I didn't reveal to anyone that I liked him whatsoever. However, my friends completely ruined it for me. One of my friends, whom I'll call A, started teasing me about him as my boyfriend (which isn't true). Then, when he joined me and my friends for lunch, A started asking him whether he was going to buy me lunch and whether he was going out with me or not. Initially, he said he was engaged (but he was just kidding), and he and I were joking around afterwards. But then the next day, when he was talking to my other friend M, he looked at me and then he ran away. M is now getting really really friendly with him and I think he's mad at me! We still talk but briefly now, and of course I give him his space. However, I just feel that maybe our friendship has broken apart. I'm really upset, just because this happened. I've tried my best not to cry over it, but I don't know how I'm going to get talking with him again. Help! :'(

I think you need to stop him when you know there's some time to talk and explain to him that the friend was acting ridiculous. Then you can work the conversation over to you saying that you like him and asking him out.
Just say that you have something you need to say to him and I think that he will kinda know what you mean.

This was a hell of a lot of stuff to happen in such a short space of two weeks. If you like him and you think your friend is trying to get there first then you need to get your thinking cap on and find a way to win him over, get to know his likes and interests and ask him on a date.
