my best friend for going on seven years, he's a guy, and i have liked him for exactly five minutes less than seven years. problem is, he has been crushing on my other friend (who's a girl, i wouldnt like a gay guy duh! nothing against gays, but i dont crush on gays) for nine years. he's nice and waits for me at the lockers (love the alphabet because our last names are right next to each other), and he likes to talk to me, and once in third grade, there was a club war, and he sided with me and the girls instead of the guys he had known since preschool and was friends with. but then he doesnt like me or talk to me when his friends are around. he has a dark sense of humor, and we like to call each other names, he calls me f*****t (its playful, so i dont count it as teasing) and i used to call him midget, but he got taller, so i call him vampire. long story, but he's pale with black hair and has a birthmark on his neck, and i just connected the dots. for the last three years, i randomly text him saying stuff like "i like u do you like me?" and he always says no. but the way he acts around me makes me and everyone else i ask think differently. he even complemented my new boots, and he isnt emo or goth or anything that would make him like black studded boots! well, at the last dance at my school, he stalked the girl he likes, and i sat next to him in the corner and as he put it "stared at him persistently for over an hour". so im really confused. he is really confusing. i want someone to reply telling me if he does or doesnt like me. all my friends say yes, but they are all girls...so if i could get a reply from a guy's point of view, that would be great.
sorry this is so long, but its seven years of back ground info, so...
i ask again for anyone who just skims the rest, do you think he likes me or not?
