Well he certainly gives you a lot of attention, if you ask me i think he is interested! If a guy is not interested he wouldn't take the time to acknowledge you alone or with his friends. I hope this time around works out for you two, casually ask him to go for lunch sometime, or out for a drink, take it slow without expectations and see what happens! Good Luck, keep us posted!
