<p>Firstly, I can't believe I'm asking my fellow CCers whether my crush returns my feeling, but hey, at least it'll be interesting. :D</p>
<p>So...I have an enormous crush on a guy I share study hall and English class with. In study hall, we banter a lot, complete with playful insults, and I've noticed on a few occasions that he goes out of his way to make me laugh. Once, when I commented after making Extemp finals @ a Forensics tournament "I'm so happy right now that I want to hug somebody," he volunteered without prompting and allowed me to hug him. (EEP! <3)</p>
<p>My close friends and one of his best friends think that he has a crush on me too, but I just can't believe it. He consistently pays waaay more attention to other people at lunch and in English class than he does to me, and plus, I'm honestly afraid to be too hopeful.</p>
<p>What do you think? Care to reassure or crush the hopes of a lovestruck teenage girl? =)</p>
<p>Why not just ask him?</p>

<p>Ask him or get one of your guy friends to figure out for you. It varies among each individual. Some guys are just flirts.</p>
<p>Wish you the best! :]</p>
<p>@ElemenoPQ: I wish I felt like that was a realistic option, and one day, I may crack and ask (or tell him). But I feel like he would just stand there awkwardly and go, “Um, okay” even if he did…</p>
<p>@Truffliepuff: LOL ikr? He actually convinced me to join Forensics in the first place. He nagged me for half an hour and I finally caved. xD It’s lucky that he bugged me so much, because I loved it and I’ve done really well.</p>
<p>^^trumpetgrl, you moved!</p>
<p>I think it’s really cute. Why don’t you find an excuse to ask him if he wants to hang out with you outside of class or something?</p>
<p>With all the fun banter and stuff you guys have, what makes you think he’ll just stand there all awkwardly? lol</p>
<p>Oh, I don’t know. Honestly, I’m probably just nervous that he doesn’t return my feelings. <.<_>.> That’s why I posted this lol.</p>
<p>Agreed with trumpetgrl. Each guy has his own way of communicating feelings and sometimes it’s just fun to flirt. I vote with getting a guy friend to snoop for you. If he does, well, then don’t hesitate to ask him to hang outside of school! :)</p>
<p>I think you should gradually start hanging out more…seems like it could work…</p>
<p>However, if you get one of neutral friends to ask him…you could find out quicker.</p>
<p>That’s a good idea. I’ll see if one of his close friends will investigate for me. <em>crosses fingers</em></p>
<p>I find out that guys like me through their friends without even asking. Guys are really bad at keeping their friend’s secrets lol. So I concur, finding out through a guy friend of his is a good idea.</p>
<p>Also, if he touches you more often than needed. A lot of guys tend to do the whole shoulder draping, hugging, arm touching thing to girls they like.</p>
<p>Your story sounds so cute :]</p>
<p>He’s not a very touchy feely person, BUT I must admit, I was cheered by the hugging incident. :D</p>
<p>Still iffy that he returns my feelings (sometimes I’m sure, sometimes I’m convinced he doesn’t) so I better follow advice and find out through his friends.</p>
<p>As I mentioned, one of his guy best friends firmly believes that he has a crush on me, but as far as I know, that was based off of behavior, not because he’d been told by my crush.</p>
<p>Is he naturally a flirt? If not, then it’s pretty likely that he likes you. If so, then who knows; you’ll have to ask him or something.</p>
<p>^^You could get the friend to ask him if he likes you?</p>
<p>From my observation, a lot of guys like embarrassing their friends. eg:“So I asked him if he liked you and he turned beet red lol. So effing hilarious.”</p>
<p>Sure you’re nervous that he may not return your feelings. Just go out there, ask to hang out with him, ask if he likes you, or just tell him that you like him. Go ahead and do it! Do something, don’t let this linger too long. You guys have fun together so it’s not going to be awkward and he would understand why you would like him, it’s not like you’re some creep who came out all randomly or anything!</p>
<p>Take the chance girl!</p>
<p>but you might be a little shy, so hahaha go ahead and get someone to find out for you xP</p>
<p>He is definitely not a flirt. He’s friendly with a lot of girls, but never flirty, but aside from the hug, he hasn’t been too flirty around me, either. Then again, I usually have a lot of trouble discerning what is flirting and what isn’t, lol.</p>
<p>@Elemeno - Yep, I’m a little shy…time to summon my secret ninja skillz and do some snooping. ;P</p>
<p>^^^Yeah a lot of guys love to embarrass friends by putting them in situations like that; a situation where they have to either tell the truth or weasel their way out (which is rough lol). So yeah, just saying.</p>
<p>Trust me, I’m a guy; playful insults and teasing, going out of the way to make you laugh, making excuses to touch you or get you to touch him… yeah it’s most likely flirting. ;D</p>
<p>Well, playful insults are his ~thing, but even more so around me, haha.</p>
<p>I know it’s just CC, so is it wrong that I’m getting a little hopeful…? <.<_>.> Better find out whether he does like me first.</p>
