His best friend is a stunningly beautiful single woman and other attractive women are always so friendly and interested in him. I'm not normally jealous, this is the closest I've got but I'm more intimidated than anything. Normally I don't go for guys as good looking as he is, but he's got a great sense of humour. How can I tell if he's really interested in me? And how can I get over feeling so intimidated?

 There is no sure way to tell if he is really interested so early on, as it doesn't seem you have been seeing each other for long? It's a good sign if you meet relatively often and if there is a connection at intellectual and physical levels. I see where the shadow of jealousy is coming from if he is so handsome and especially that you haven't dated someone as good looking before, the attention he receives is all new to you and can feel strange until you get used to it... as you WILL have to get used, if your relationship progresses, and IF this is the only issue you will have, it won't be one very difficult to get over, supposing he doesn't respond to the attention but takes it only as the ego-boost that it is. The temptations around the good-looking I think are indeed more numerous but this of course doesn't mean neither of them is truthful to their partners. Learn more about his friends and their relationship, as you get to know each other, his views on relationships, his longest-lasting relationship, etc. All these should make you feel more comfortable, together with the fact you remind yourself what brought you two closer in the first place... which has nothing to do with the queue of equally good-looking girls waiting at his door.
