Re: Is this guy flirting with me?

I'm also wondering if he's trying to give you more self-confidence or something.

This is a bit of a cool story, but at one point my BFF was feeling really down because she kept getting rejected by guys, and she posted a status about it on Facebook. My male friend saw it and started blatantly flirting with her. I sent him a message asking what was up, because I knew he had a serious crush on someone else, and he said he was just trying to be friendly and boost her self-esteem.

Of course I got really mad at him because... pretending to like someone to boost their self-esteem when you're not actually interested is a seriously douche thing to do, but he was mortified and felt terrible when I pointed this out. He was literally dense enough to think this was a good idea, and he said he didn't think she'd take his flirting seriously.

So ANYWAY I almost wonder if it's like that. I'm not saying it's the only possibility, but it seems kind of similar. The getting weird about his girlfriend isn't explained by that, though.

I don't blame you for being confused either way. Boys, in my experience, tend to fail at being clear about romantic interest.

I don't know. He seems to be going way past just flirting. Touching her/offering his coat/food, etc. And then being really dodgy about his SO. Sounds like a player to me.

Huh. I didn't think much about all that. Sharing food and touching seems like a normal thing for friends to do to me, so to me that seemed less blatantly flirty than the other things. As far as the offering his coat thing seems, it might just be my culture, but I know guys who do that to every girl they hang out with because they feel the need to play by gender roles in every relationship, romantic or otherwise. I read it that way in this case, but I guess I could be wrong.

OP said she didn't notice him doing it to other girls in the group.

Guess I missed that. Whoops. Although if he's closer (or wants to be closer, even in a friendly way) to OP to the other girls in the group that could still explain the food and touching.
