Does touching mean flirting?

So this guy i like is a bit shy around me.He usually ends up on the same side of the room as me and comes up with silly reasons to talk to me,he teases me about my southern accent, comes and likes to helo me set up buffet tables at parties.So last week I passed him a plastic bag and he slipped his hand in the plastic handles to take it from me and there was definte finger fondling and today I passed him a jar and he covered my hand with his as he took it from me.Is this his way of flirting or just coincidences. Also, this guy for all this still has not added me onto his Myspace friends list like he did with all our other friends..he even added on my best friend who he knows only through me! What's up with him? His mixed signals confuse me..make me insecure...can anyone help me figure this out?

He likes you. He's a coward. He wants you to make the first move because he's afraid of rejection. It's obvious to me, because I've played the same game, lol.

Touching doesnt neccesarily means flirting. It could be but I would take it he's going all the way wrong with his method here if he is.
Wait and see if he does something else in the future.

I agree with the respondents so far.

He finds you very attractive, probably has a southern accent fetish and has problems approaching women.

Touching can be flirtatious but it doesn't have to be.

I think you should tell him that his manners are appalling and that you'll never forgive him if he doesn't add you on MySpace at once. Come on, Lav, take some initiative. You can make a flirtatious joke out of it, but this has been going on for so long that it's ridiculous!

And yes, if he's touched you unnecessarily more than once, I think it's flirting.

Put his hand around yours?

You don't do that shit by accident.

Most people are conscience of whom they're touching and if this behavior is new, I would say, definitely flirtatious.

Is it a "I want sex flirt" or is it "I like you flirt"?
