fifipheebs Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 i have a friend (male) that many say shows signs of liking me. i get that feeling he likes me too (im female) except sometimes he will call me sis and this throw me off. not all the time, but pattern seems to be when he shows lots of attention to me earlier that week. then suddenly the next time he will call me sis. is he calling me sis cuz he wants to hide his true feelings cuz he doesnt know how i feel about him or he wants to establish that he only sees me as friend?
Phantom888 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 One way to know for sure. Kiss him on the lips and watch his reaction.

Author fifipheebs Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 When someone calls you "sis", they're not interested in you romantically. Typically at least. I can't imagine using a familial expression as a nickname for a romantic interest. That would be creepy x creepy. but he would say things like how he wants to make out and other inneundo laced suggestions.
devilish innocent Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 At one point before my husband and I were dating, he had developed feelings for me before I'd shown any interest in him. He didn't think I was going to change, so he started trying to make himself think of me as the sister he never had in order to get over me. Maybe this guy is doing the same thing with you? I'd pay attention to your behavior before he says this. If he says it more when you've been flirting with him, then he may be trying to warn you off. But if he's just been showing interest and not getting much positive feedback in return, then maybe he's trying to use it as a way to get over you. 1

I tihnk you are onto something tho. how did your husband finally feel comfortable admiting his true feelings for you? what did you do to encourage him?

devilish innocent Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) how did your husband finally feel comfortable admiting his true feelings for you? what did you do to encourage him? Well, he was pretty honest from the very beginning. But I honestly thought I liked him as a friend after meeting him, so I told him we couldn't be more, and he tried to suppress his feelings after hearing that. He never completely hid them though. That was the period when he told me he was trying to think of me as the sister he never had. Then when I realized I liked him, I just started making comments to hint at my feelings such as saying what type of parents we'd be if we had kids together. That encouraged him to start opening up about his feelings again. I ended up sending him an on-line greeting card with the music to "I just called to say I love you" playing in the background one day, and we ended up being entirely open with each other about our feelings after that.
