reader, anonymous, writes (17 November 2009): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI'm not too sure if he likes me because he gives me mixed signals. Sometimes he can be touching me alot, not sexually but you know in a friendly way, and he has a certain look on his face sometimes that just show he likes me but i'm confused right now. i guess i'll never know until i tell him how i feel in a few weeks. But i am extremely scared of rejection so how can i get rid of my nerves ?? thanks again :)

 Be there for him as his best friend while he's getting over his girlfriend first. I suggest that you don't do anything about your crush for him for a while because you don't want to end up being a rebound girlfriend and getting hurt. Because these types of relationships never last as one party is just being used for the other's emotional gain.
When the time is right, as CaringGuy has already stated, boys don't tend to get the subtle hints we throw at them. They just need to be told.
Firstly though, have you had any clues that he likes you too? Because telling him you like him without him liking you back may damage your friendship. So test the water first to see if you can pick up any signs that he likes you.
Hope this helps, keep us updated. :)

Well done for realzing you have to give him time. He'll be a bit confused and hurt at the moment, so give it a few weeks at the least (maybe a month or little more). With guys, there is only one specific way and that is to tell us. We don't do hints or subtle movements because they're confusing and could mean a million things. If you really like him, when he's had some time to get over her, then gently tell him you like him and you'd like to get to know him more. You have to be brave. Meanwhile, just be a good friend to him, he'll appreciate that.
