If a guy friend starts telling you about how another girl was telling him he had beautiful eyes and that she's really into him, and then when you say "that's great", he asks you if your jealous was he trying to make you jealous?

It's not like I showed any interest or was upset at what he said and i don't think I seemed jealous at all.

Honeypie agony auntI agree with Tisha.

Sounds like he is trying to "fluff" himself, maybe because he likes you or maybe because he just like to have his ego rubbed.

If you are not interested in him, it's pretty easy to nip in the bud. Like Tisha explained.

"She's really into you? Wow, it's sad she has to go around telling guys with girlfriends stuff like that. I've seen a lot of guys with beautiful eyes. I'll settle for the one I've got, until something better comes along! Then I'll pass you on to her." *Big smile!*

Tisha-1 agony auntI would have asked him, "why on earth would I be jealous?" if I wanted to squelch any crush he might have on me.

If I did like him, I'd have asked something like, "why, should I be jealous?" with a smile.

So if you think he's crushing on you, and that's not something you want to happen, then you need to put some space and boundaries between you.

If he's an attention seeker or insecure, just tell him, "I'm happy you're getting the compliments you want. Now ask her out already!"

Definitely sounds like he was trying to gauge your reaction. Maybe he likes you and is trying to figure out if he finds you attractive.
