text: Many different guys have different ways of showing their affection. Some tease and play, while others approach relationships very seriously. If he pays a ton of attention to you, negative or positive, he probably likes you, but then you may be in the friend zone. \n\nMy advice: if you like him enough to be worth the trouble, confront him carefully. Tell him how you feel. Being desired (but not smothered) is a great turn-on. If he gives you a less than enthused answer, back off and give him room. Mystery and playing it aloof can also be big turn-ons. He may just come around, and if not, at least you've cleared the air and can move forward with someone else. But he might just say he likes you back, and voila - you've got yourself a budding relationship! Congrats! \n\nEither way, take it from someone who knows - life without telling people you like or love them is filled with regrets. Regrets bite. So put yourself out there and hope for the best! (And update so we know how it went). Best of luck!
