friends help: What do you think he means? - Help.com

This could be his personality. He could just be a natural flirt is what I mean, because with how you’re describing the situation it sounds like he’s definitely flirting. Does he typically act differently? No matter if he is flirting or not, I don’t think you should jump to conclusions just yet. Go to the friday thing and see how he acts around others and if he continues to act like that with you, and see what other moves he might use. Maybe he won’t use any moves at all, but I say time will tell whether he wants something more than a friendship.

I really don’t know many people who greet others with kisses, but it sound like he likes you.

I think he is sending you polite signals to say ‘I like you and I would like to get to know you more’. Take your time and don’t rush things, you never know what may come out of this- but it sounds promising for you. Good luck!

I think he’s trying to make you comfortable being with him, so he could get closer to you. He probably likes you.. Good luck 3

what i see from you he never did these things with you and that proves that he likes you now and he dont see u as friend like before

friends dont these things to each other he is more intrested in her

I actually have no idea if he asks like that with others too or just me. I think I just need to wait. Thank you for your post

All my friends kind of greet each other with kisses. It’s just that Ive always been the one in the group who DOESNT - and they all know that, so they NEVER do it (including him) but lately hes just been doing it. thanks for your reply

I am kind of comfortable with him, Im that type of easy going person who just gets along with everyone. I just couldnt tell if he liked me or not (Im not very good at signal reading). Thanks for the reply :)

I think if you would simply take what others say and do at face value, rather than trying to decipher “signals”, you would find life to be a whole lot easier journey. If someone tells you that they hope to see you at a regular Friday night gathering, that’s probably exactly what they mean…nothing more, nothing less. Why make yourself crazy trying to turn it into anything else? …Just enjoy the ride! :o)

Well, I actually do agree with what you are saying to an extent.
But if you just take what everything is saying without looking for meanings behind it you might not actually understand what some people actually mean. I mean it is necessary for someone to look for a deeper meaning behind words sometimes. But I think in this case, this shouldnt be done. Thanks again

If someone means something other than what they are saying, the burden is on them to be more clear, not on you to figure it out.

people can say they are “fine” when in reality they are hurt and are feeling terrible. people can say “I lack sleep” when in reality they have been crying themselves to sleep each night. Should we disregard these people just because they dont mean what they say? Or should we look at the wider picture?

We are kind of drifting of the original topic now.. Im sorry!

What you are describing is passive-aggressive behavior, and thank goodness, not a trait that most people have. It isn’t up to you to try to figure out what is wrong with someone who tells you they are fine but you can see otherwise. You do no one any favors by playing into that. They are rewarded by this bad behavior if they prompt you to have to prod them into telling you what is wrong. If I ask someone how they are and they say “fine”, I take them at their word and go about my own life. This teaches people to say what they mean and mean what they say if they want anyone to pay any kind of attention to them. Again, the burden is on others to say what they mean and mean what they say…not you to try to always have to read between the lines. Don’t you find living that way to be exhausting and exasperating? I know I would.

these people need some loving too :P
I know what you mean!

Everybody needs loving, but they need to learn to let others know that…not “train” others to play their silly games.

We are totally drifting off from my original post!

Not really… This applies to communicating with EVERYONE, even this guy.

Thanks for your input :)
