Does He Like Me? How Do I Handle This?

[SuthernReBelle]

I've liked Boy 1 since February, and we have three classes twice a week together. Lately he's started warming up to me and will talk, laughs at my jokes, makes eye contact, etc. He's easy-going though, and everything is very brief, partly because I'm too scared to extend eye contact/conversation. I would like to get to know him better, so how do I do that?

Also, one night we were playing football in a group and our mutual Friend 1 (who does social with him and also likes him) came up to me, gave me a hug and whispered that he liked me. So we went back into the house and she told me that his sister had caught him staring at me. She asked Boy 1 if he liked me and he didn't deny it, (she says if he was not attracted to me he would say so).

 

However, when Friend 1 asked him if he liked me, he denied it. It was in a backyard and there were other boys around, so of course he would say no...

 

I'm just a little confused as to how to act. His sister thinks that he might like Friend 1, too, but I think I have a better chance of him liking me than him liking her. Besides she pursues him like crazy, always flirting, sitting next to him, etc. But maybe I'm too standoffish? I don't want to make it seem like I like him, the thought of coming off like that paralyzes me when I'm around him. Because if he doesn't like me, but I think he does, wouldn't that make things totally awkward?

 

This is the first time a boy I liked probably liked me too, so I'm confused as to how to act. We are 'seniors in ms' LOL He's a day younger than me And he's really cute, I see on his fb page (we aren't friends but I can see it) there are girls who flirt with him and stuff...

 

 

So should I ask his sis more info or what? I definitely will when I see her tomorrow, but what are the risks of having her be the go-between? Especially since they aren't particularly close?

Just go for the kill, if you want something in life, you have to stretch out your hands and grab it with your own hands. No one is gonna do it for you, so just always go for gold in your life.
