I have this guy in my filmmaking class, he's really nice and cute. Our first few meetings, he was already friendly and nice around me but doesn't really socialize, I mean we're not really allowed to talk much in class since it's a really small class (3 students) so it's really rude to talk while our professor is showing us how to do this and that.

Anyway, there was this meeting when my professor was using me as an example and said "For instance, Hannah and her boyfriend are talking in a coffee shop, what shot would you want to use?" And I was joking around and said "If I had one.." and he laughed and ever since that day he got very comfortable around me.

Like one time, our class was over and we left together the building and I held the door for him as I went out, and he said "thank you, HANNAH" (he literally emphasized my name, like in a teasing way" I mean not that I'm over reacting the first place, and i said you;re welcome and walked away and all of the sudden he threw me a snowball... (we're not in middle school, we're in college. just fyi, which made him look so cute in my eyes) I was stunned cause as what i said we don't really talk in class. and he started laughing and said "I swear it wasn't me" and i tried getting back and chased him but he ran too fast.

Then another thing is eventually he started being so playful in class around me, he keeps teasing me because he knows I'm frightened to really do stuff with the camera cause it's very expensive and he would be like "COME ON HANNAH U CAN DO THIS" in a teasing tone. or like "Okay you do this hahaha" and he almost got me in trouble once, we we're shooting something and all of the sudden he stopped filming and said to my professor "You know what, I think hannah should do this this time" and our professor agreed and i was soo scared so i started asking for help from them and he came to help me. I was kneeling down trying to fix the shot and he went over me, I was in between his arms, his face was like an inch next to mine. And another is, our professor assigned us to look for good angles in a gallery and we did, and i went to the other part of the room and he did too but we were across each other and he started doing those framing using your hands to me, and i laughed and played around too, doing the same to him. And finally, my professor asked us to return all the equipments to the bag and so i took care of the camera, and i while i was trying to take it off the stand, it wouldn't so i said to everyone "can someone please help me with this" and this other guy from my class came and said I got you and helped me and he came too, I was holding the camera, he then put his hands on top of me, sort of holding the camera too, both of us didn't try to take our hands off each other... like you know the normal reaction when you accidentally do it.

So IDK maybe I'm thinking way too much but most of my friends think he likes me, and I think the same too but he hasn't asked for my number. He's really goofy around me, while the other guy in class is so indifferent towards us. So what do you guys think, he is interested right?

Even bigger question, why haven't you asked for his contact information or asked if he might like to get a coffee/tea/whatever after class? Make a friendly gesture. See if he is open to meeting up outside of class. There are no rules stating he has to make the first move.

Be prepared to find out he is seeing someone or just got out of a relationship, doesn't 'date' classmates, is busy with other classes/work/projects and isn't 'available' at this time.

Perhaps he's afraid of being shot down....perhaps he's got someone else and is just being nice....perhaps you should ask him if he wants to go to lunch or get coffee or something. It doesn't always have to be on the guy you know.


EDIT- LOL! I see Cat posted essentially the same thing, just worded better.

Oh, Hannah my friend. We can't tell you why he hasn't asked for your number,we don't know him, but these are different times. Why haven't you asked for his?

Forget texting, it's impersonal and most men aren't into it. Why don't you just ask him out for coffee or pizza or something?

So you want him to make the first move huh?

Thanks guys! But I mean it's not that I'm showing signs to him that I'm not interested or something, I mirrored whatever he's doing to me, and if I got the idea that he likes me, he must think that I like him too but I'm really scared of asking him out... I showed him a lot of signs for him to think I like him, but he never does anything, we rarely see him on campus, so I'm guessing maybe he;s just playing with me just because I'm the only girl in class.

That could well be but since you don't know anything about him except he is the other dude in your class, and you like him better than the other one, most people would just talk and get to know each other. You are caught up it seems in YOUR feelings. Relax, and don't get ahead of yourself. JUST TALK!!

Don't guess, presume, or assume. Get facts. Then decide what to do about the FACTS. For sure he is the only one who knows what's on his mind.

Maybe he has a girl friend and he is just being nice. Relax and get to know him, continue being friendly.
