deos he like me??

[ER5]

okay,so ive never posted a thread before im new to this

heres my question,its nothing as serious as other peoples but i just wondered what other people think:

-theres this guy who i really like,hes everything ive been looking for (that sounds so cheesy ad stereotypical i know :L)

-we are just friends and i havent actually told him how i feel

-he texts me like aaallll the time 24/7 (but no xx's :'( ), and is always wanting to meet up

-but i cant tell if he thinks we are just friends or wants to go somewhere because hes always saying things like the way i spell deos is cute(becasue i have a habit of putting the 'o' and 'e' the wrong way round which is quite embarasing:o) and he always lingers for me and compliments me,but deos he just mean it like you would tell your best friend theyre hair looks good today??

-hes not the kind of person who would have the confidence to ask someone out

-i find it hard to talk to his friends though because i think they get the impression im only their to talk to him,but i want to try and get on with his friends to make things work,but i can never find anything to talk about with them,so they probably think i dont want to talk to them,but i do,they just dont make it easy for me and i think they've figured i like him more than just friends.

if he desont like me in the same way im happy with being friends although obviously i would prefer to be a bit more,maybe i should just give it time and see what happens?and also how do i become friends with his friends?i accept that you cant make everyone want to be your friend but still his friends are important to him and they are not making it easy for me and he spends a lot of time with them

sorry if i just wrote an essay about a simple question :/

It sounds like he does like you. But it's difficult to tell whether or not he likes you as just a friend or in a romantic way.

 

I would suggest hanging out as just the two of you. In conversation, perhaps you could lightly touch his arm and see how he reacts.

 

Regarding his friends, best to act casual and just chat about things you have in common. Be genuine and sincere. It can come across as a little forced and off-putting if they think you are trying too hard and that you're only talking to them because you have an interest in their friend.
