He will always start the conversations with me online.He teases me quite a bit and annoys me in fun, and after he annoys me in fun, he'll say things like "Aww i'm sorry, love you really" and he also has a name that he calls me, but he will only say it to me online, not when i talk to him in school.He is quite a confident person and a really big flirt, he will flirt with pretty much any girl that talks to him He does talk to me in school, but he doesnt really say that much around me and he isnt as 'full-on' with me, like he is with other people he talks to.There are just a few things wich are confusing me though, like why doesn't he flirt with me in school, like he does online? And is teasing me a way of showing me that he likes me? I understand that maybe he doesnt like me in that way, and only as a friend, but do normal friends just act this way? Any advice would be much appreciated, and i'm looking forward to reading what you say! :)

For a lot of guys, it's easier to flirt with a girl you don't care about in person, and easier to flirt with one you do care about online.And teasing is almost always a good thing. At the very least, it means he thinks you're fun. I'd say go ahead and start flirting with him in person a little bit, see if you can draw him out. He may be a bit nervous, so be patient. Good luck.

I definitely think there's a good chance that he fancies you. I was in a similar situation with someone that I used to date and those signs are ringing a lot o bells, including the teasing! The difference is that the guy I dated was very shy and he didn't talk to me in person because he wasn't confident enough like he was online.
So I think that, unless this guy talks to a lot of girls online like he does you, he probably fancies you but maybe isn't confident enough to show it in person. I know you said he's confident and a flirt, but that could well be an act. When it comes to the girls he really likes, i.e. you, he's probably quite unsure and doesn't want to make a fool of himself. It's a lot easier to approach someone online because you don't have to literally approach them.
I'm not sure if you can relate this to the situation, but it's my take on what you said. If you do want something to grow out of this though, I urge to try and speak to him more in person. Talking to someone online too much can develop into bubble relationship that doesn't work in person, and this is from experience!
I hope this helps. Good luck.
