ok, I know plenty of people ask this but w/e
I have this one friend named jake and we always hang out with eachother after school, basically hes a goof, but I always seem to see him looking at me and then look away when I see him, he's always trying to hug me and when we're on the bus he's really nice, if I look sad he's always asking whats wrong and pushing my hair out of my face, but since he's such a goof I don't know if he's just being weird or my friend or something else...also the fact that sometimes he flirts with this one girl by me all the time confuses me ...
what do you people think?

I think he prolly likes you.....go ask one of his friends or something like if he talks about you areound him....or u could straight up ask him....what boy doesn't flirt with other girls????...I mean...come on

*excited* I think he likes you! BUT! I'm not sure...

It seems that he gives you a lot of attention, and the fact that he looks away whenever you notice him noticing you(hehe) shows that he likes looking at you(duh) and is afraid that you might not like it...My opinion is that he likes you, but is also afraid of what you might think about it. He seems to be a very close friend, and maybe he is confused and afraid about a possibility of a wrecked friendship? But only with good communication can good friendship be sustained...so go ahead and ask him...casually would be a safe way to start...see how he takes it. If he is suddenly serious then you know he likes you...being the goofball that he normally is. If not...you can wait for a while then gently probe him again...

As for the flirting with that girl beside you...i don't think he likes her...normally goofballs flirt just for the fun of it...but what i love about them is that when they get serious, oh boy, do they get serious! I can just melt right now! Anyway, he's doing probably to see how you react to it...maybe it's his way of finding out whether you like him or not! So plucker up some courage and ask him...no point brooding over it and regretting it everyday...hehe...just think about it carefully...and do what you yourself want to do! All the best!

he likes both of you...mabye you should compete with the other girl

yea..good job encouraging her..

I think he likes you.
Maybe he's scared to admit it so, he's covering up by flirting with another girl.

he wants to kiiiiss you, he wants to toouch you..

and maybe more

i think he likes u..
go and ask him if u want to be sure...

from a guy's point of view.. yer.. he likes u.. tryna get ur attention.. tryna touch u.. probably more.. try actually staring at him until he look at u again.. then that can probably proof how much he look at u.. and there u go : )

i think he does ( x

ahaha. hrmm. like what some ppl suggested. ask his close friends.

i mean. i have a guy friend name jack who has a gf. and he still flirts with a lot of ppl. [don`t get me wrong. he`s still loyal]

anywais.hrm. i think you shud T H I N K if you liek him or not. if you like him. THEN ask.

he might just be toying with you. or he really does like you.
why dont u ask one of his friends or sumthin?

OMG...i have a frend who's like that too! But he's not my type, which is like pretty sad. xD But we like each other...as pretend brother and sister, which is kool. :]

well, the guy you call "Jake" cares about you. Soo...why dont u ask him if he likes u? If ur kinda shy, then ask one of his close frends. That way you'll know if he likes u or not. :]

Love is a game of hearts, and by posting on a website it doesnt find you an answer any faster, dont ask for advice, do as your heart tells you too and if your hearts tellin you its nothing, then it probably is

i know how you feel right now cause im in the exact situation..sry i cant help cause idk..

maybe him just communicating with another girl makes it seem like he's flirting, but he's not. some guys cant help it, whenever they talk to someone they end up flirting. but i think you have a way better chance than her because he flirts with you and he care about you when you're sad, meaning he wants more than just a physical relationship. which is a good thing.

ok, thanks guys....crap, but now I don't know how to tell him

ohh yeah, challenge her to a death match, winner takes the boy!

maybe he likes you?
or it could because hes just friendly.

tell him face to face if your not shy at all.. but if you are, write a note to him? or online or something.

He most likely likes you ask someone! One of his friends or ask HIM straight up.

Ask him yourself!

I think he probably likes you. If not, he's a really really good friend of yours. Treasure that.

gee, i don't know.
find out for yourself.

I think he's a good friend....but there's always the other possibility that he likes you. He's a good friend because he asks you what's wrong when you're sad. But the fact that he flirts with this other girl kinda hurts the idea that he might like you...but if you really want to know...ask him...confront him about it.

when he's with you alot and just there for you

that's how it was for me he just had his arms around me walkin' yea but it was all goodd

he definitly likes you..wen i play with a girls hair, or hug her, i definitly like her...

just a thought.. but i think he does..
