Dear Confused-
Go ahead and
kick his butt. You are asking a panel of 4 strangers if your
"friend" likes you when you should be asking him.
It can be
frustrating when you have feelings for someone and you're
not sure if they are reciprocated, but at the same time, doesn't
it feel great?
That sorta ambiguous feeling where you have to constantly gauge
where the boundaries lie in your relationship? He could
very well be getting close and having a hard time with it.
But you are his friend, and presumably he thinks of you as a
girlfriend, so why not help him deal with his feelings?
If he likes
you and you like him, now is the time to cut the teasing or
whatever is causing you to want to kick his butt, or it will
prevent any real progress from friends to a more serious relationship.
Maybe
he doesn't want to be as serious as he thinks you do, so he's
deliberately doing things to irritate you. That is a possibility
that you have to accept. Don't freak out about this.
If you like him and he likes you, it will happen just be patient.
Part of the
risk is that the friendship can be ruined if the relationship
doesn't work out so it may take a little longer for him to
take that chance. Be there for him and let him know
how you feel about him and things should work out fine.
