Question - (5 December 2007) 4 Answers - (Newest, 5 December 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *nonyous writes:

hi,

I like my flatmate at uni, but recently he found a note under my bed saying that i liked him.

He basically was taken aback so i lied and said that i used to like him but not anymore because that was the only option i had. I told him that i had written the note 2 months ago and that it meant nothing anymore to sort things out between us but i know that he still knew that i liked him because i was not very convincing.

However, since then he has not backed off at all and we have both ben carrying on like normal. I always thought that if i knew that someone liked me and i didn't like them in that way, i would start to keep a slight distance, but he hasn't. Therefore, i don't know what this means. Also, a couple of days ago he figured out that the note had been written on the back of a nectar card envelope, and he said to me:

'oh, by the way, you know that note you wote, and how you said that you wrote it 2 months ago...well, it as written on the back of your nectar card envelope, which you got less than a month ago'.

So now he definatley knows that i like him, but he has still not backed off...hat does this mean??

We still have the same fun that we always had...

please help

"If I've got this wrong then I'll come on a date with you, but I think you like me. Am I right or wrong?"

A female reader, anonymous, writes (5 December 2007):

I think he likes you. Cause you are absolutely right about the fact that if he didn't like you back he would probably be kind of stand offish. But he is still the same. And on top of it, he asked you about the letter and mentioned that he noticed that it had been written sooner than you said. A guy who doesn't like you would NOT bring that up. So the fact that he brought that up again just means that he wants to talk about it. Basically he likes you too and was just trying to find a way to bring it up again so that hopefully the conversation would lead to something between you guys. That's what I think is going on.

bqagirl2692 agony auntWell maybe he doesnt have a problem with you liking him. Maybe he feels the same way or a slight interest in you as well. Seems to me he shares a special bond with you that just because you like, it wont drift him apart. Keep talking to him as friends and see what goes from there. Maybe even make the first move. Your talking as if you want him to back off. Do you really want him to? Maybe this is an advantage for you. Good luck!

It sounds as though he likes you too. Why don't you come straight out and ask him?

Of course it may be that he does not think it should change your present friendship and so you should be prepared to find out that he likes you as a friend but nothing more.

Surely knowing is better than not knowing?
