writes:i met a guy in my waterpolo class in the fall that I unintentionally fell for. Over the winter break, I added him on fb and messaged him about the class once, to which he replied immediately. We didn't have class together in the winter, so I didn't see him, but we're both taking waterpolo again now.He seems like a quiet guy. He only interacts with the guys in the class. There aren't many girls in the class, and I haven't seen him talk to any of them. I try to talk to him, and over the past few weeks, he seems to be warming up to me. He cheers me on when I have the ball, calls my name a lot, directs me where to go during the game, and talks to me more during the breaks. He has been a lot friendlier towards me over the past few weeks. Does this mean he likes me? Or does he see me as a friend/one of the guys? Reply to this Question

 This is the 5th time you ask more or less the same question. I think maybe you should either TAKE the advice given, which is ASK him out or leave him alone.

 And once again you are going to get the "You should ask him out" responses which you will totally ignore...again. Why do you keep posting this question? What do you really want to hear?

 P.S. I understand the "unintentionally fell for..." bit... since I "unintentionally" fall for any girl that gives me a second glance!!!!!!!

Tisha has fleshed out that you have posed this question, here, several times.
NOW, how about you "cut to the chase" and ask HIM??????
Good luck....

You really do want to know if he likes you, so I think the only way to do that is to get to know him better. You've had a crush on him since the Fall.
This particular question doesn't show anything more than a typical teammate attitude.
Do people in the class ever go for a snack or coffee afterwards? Does he?
If you like him, let him know by being friendly and smiling and talking to him. Flirt! Do you think you could do that?

 Not a lot to go on here I'm afraid. I mean, he cheers you when you have the ball and calls your name a lot, but I'm reliably advised by my water polo secretary that that is entirely commensurate with good teamwork. By way of contrast, one tends not to yell the name of someone they fancy conspicuously during a sporting event and hopes it will be taken as a mating call.
I am teasing. Ask him out! It is entirely possible he likes you, it is also entirely possible he is just a friendly classmate. You say he's quiet, and being in front of a pack of fellow dudes can be inhibiting for some men as much as it can be liberating for others, so perhaps he isn't in the best place to give it a shot.
Men are cool with being asked for coffee. It doesn't label you or obligate you to anything. Faint heart never won ball in water polo match or handsome dude either!
