There's this guy. He's in some of my classes in college. I afraid he's about to ask me out. One day he waved at me in a childish manner with a huge smile on his face, from the distance in a crowded hallway, and insisted I wave back acting like we were best friends. I don't see him that often because we don't attend that often but when I do see him he openly flirts with me in front of my friends and seems to use reversed psychology, saying "doesn't she look happy to see me" One day I was talking to a girl I know, and as he walked by he said "I'll just borrow her there"
I try to treat him like a friend because I know if I get cross he'll love it & may use it as an excuse to express how he feels. I would prefer if we both kept our feelings bottled up because I think would win an argument with me, as I wouldn't be able to find an excuse not to date him.
The other day he waited for me outside the lecture for me. We got talking and I ended up studying next to him for nearly two hours. I lost complete track of time. He said he was going to get something to eat and asked if I'd like to join him. I said I've more work to do. He then realised I hadn't eaten or drank since morning and I said "don't worry I'll be fine". He said "I'll be back in a sec" and came back holding two coffees. I acted surprised and said "you can't be bringing me coffee". He then looked right into my eyes and said, "Stephanie, its just a coffee". It worked and I foolishly drank the coffee. It annoyed me!
He's not that needy but once or twice in class or in the library I felt a pat on my shoulder and you'd look around and there he'd be with his big wave walking by. He has lately started to touch me a bit too. He's closing in, attaching strings in whatever way he can, and I don't know how to say "no". Help?
