Many guys have a "hands off" policy when it comes to their buddies ex-girlfriends. You might approach this guy and ask him how he feels about dating you. Guys like a girl who is forward, but not pushy.
If gurls think of you as a friend and a friend only then your not their type or they aren't interested.
Just tell him/her you're not interested and if you are, tell him/her. If you just want to be friends (and nothing more) tell him/her that. Always support them in their choices...don't ignor it because you may loose that friend.
A good way to ask a guy subtly if he is interested in you is to send him a note to ask him. A better way would be to just come right out and ask in person because subtlety isn't always the best way to get someones attention when you are interested.
I think it`s because he wants to know if your intrested in him because he is interested in you.
He wants to be your friend, but is not interested in being your lover.
because he likes your best friend
I would have to say a true friend because you can always count on them.
Evidently he is quite interested. Just talk to him about it , maybe ask him "What kinda girl are you interested in?" What you should do is approach him because then if he does like you then there will be a spark. But take it slow.
Maybe he's interested in you as a "friend" only.
If you are with your boyfriend and want things to stay that way you do nothing besides telling him that your not interested and you have a boyfriend if he approaches you. If you are undecided and not sure if you want to be with your boyfriend anymore it would be time to leave him and take some time to sort your feelings out - don't jump into a relationship with his friend.
Chances are he is interested in you and also values your friendship.
Just act normally but still be friends with him because if you go all quiet around him, then he not be interested in you. Be chatty and always happy and he might like you more than your best friend. And maybe other boys will like you aswell.
