writes: I met a guy in my med school cohort 2 years ago. The first year, I got the impression that he liked me. I caught him staring at me a few times, he knew my name before I knew his and said hi to me often. His friends would also make references about us as a couple (they have referred to him as "my boo/my guy/my bf" and asked me multiple times if I would ever go out with him). I didn't know how to respond to that so I said I don't know. Im guessing he took that to mean I'm not interested, so in our second year, he started avoiding me. In our second year, i heard he started dating someone else, which was a little disappointing. However, apparently they didnt last long. Now its our third year, and hes starting to talk to me again. He saying hi to me again and we talk a little more now. Im confused now. Does he like me again? P.S. throughout these 3 years, his friends have consistently made references about us as a couple.

IGNORE the friends. For them it's half jest, part jealousy maybe and 1/10 sincerity. WHAT THEY think is irrelevant.
IF he is INTERESTED he is OLD enough to ASK you out, and not do it through friends.
I see nothing wrong in you finding the friends "asking" you out on his behalf as odd. But I would probably have answered with a "if HE asks me then who knows?", instead of a "I don't know". But that is perhaps hindsight here.
Does he like you? I think he does. But I'm not sure if he likes you THAT way. I say that because he OBVIOUSLY had no problem asking ANOTHER girl out and date HER, but in 3 years he has never asked you out.
