does he like me? Options

[-sincerely]

First off, I can't help but IM him when he's online. And then he always says I gotta go, but just now he didn't even say anything to me, he just signed off. Am I annoying him?

Now the uhhh ... juicy ... part? LOL. I have no clue if this guy likes me. Right now are are "friends", aren't I lucky. Today, in the morning, I saw him in the hall and he was with all his friends, and he holds out his hand to high five me. So I high five him back. Then, two days ago, we had an end of play party. We had to squish into this tight small little room. Of course, I was squished next to him. (= haha lucky me. Also, we went for a walk by ourselves, well, with one other friend of mine, but she kinda wanders off at times. He's usually trying to get my attention if we're talking and I kinda float off, and he's always making me laugh, no matter what. Also, about 2 weeks ago, right before the night of the play, we went to McDonalds. He sat right across from me, and I thought I was going to die, haha. He offered to pay for my food, too. Also, he accidentally spit something while he was talking, and his friend goes, "atleast the girl you like isn't - nevermind." I think he was going to say here, but he cut himself off by saying nevermind. Also, he doesn't like it when girls take pictures of him, but I'm allowed to, haha. He also gave me two goodbye hugs, incase I was never going to see him again. He also gave me one before we went on play.

But those are the reasons why I think he likes me. Now, reasons why I think he doesn't. Whenever he's online, he ignores me. I mean it can't be possible every time I'm online he's busy, can it? Also I just have this feeling, its like a gut feeling, that he doesn't like me, only as a friend. But thats half the gut, the other part of the gut says he loves me, haha.

I don't want to ruin our friendship possibly by telling him I like him if he doesn't like me. So .. tell me what you think?

OMG I MEANT DOES HE LIKE ME. LOL, NOT DOES HE LIKE HIM.

No need to worry, I'll edit the topic title for you.

It's possible for him to be busy all the time. The majority of the time I get to talk to the guy I'm seeing is when he's at work. After I come home from school late in the evening, he's home too and we get to talk for awhile before he has to go to sleep which is pretty soon after I get home. Sometimes he can't really talk too much because he's busy with his own little side business thing he has with his friends. But he tells me if he's busy.

I think that if you really like him, you should go for it. Just IM him, don't wait for him to. Don't try to "play the game," you know waiting for him to call or waiting a for a certain amount of time before calling or whatever else is involved with the whole "playing the game" thing. I've stopped playing since I started seeing this guy.

This guy and I started out as friends with benefits and I told him I liked him within like 2 weeks of our little thing. He was quite mature about it (I'd hope so anyway, him being 21) while I hid in fear and embarassment after I blurted it out. We were in his car so I had nowhere to go. He told me he felt a little something for me too. It's become much more serious than friends with benefits since then.

You have to try, don't let this oppurtunity pass you by. Be who you are, go for what you want.
