Awhile back, my best friends mentioned to the guy I liked that I liked him. His response was weird: “So I should be on the lookout?” I gave up. He did show some signs of interest in me after that but I assumed he was just being friendly since we were friends just not close friends. He did randomly touch me on the shoulders twice. I’ve never seen him do that to other girls.
One night we got a bit tipsy (not sure how drunk he was, he does this thing where he has 2 drinks and “pretends”) we flirted a lot and others there thought he liked me. (hes not a flirty boy apparently not even when he's drunk) Our friends there encouraged it. I almost told him I liked him last year. I said “Lets talk” but just chickened out and left. He went “what happened” and left me 2 voicemails, 1 saying “Hope you got back to your room OK Ill see you tomorrow or IM you” He did right away the next morning, his IM was there when I woke up. He was sober while doing this and he didn't tell his friends he did this. But people there that night meddled without asking me and told him I’ve liked him. My friend who is close with him asked him if he liked me. He told me “he doesnt have feelings for you, everyone else made it worse” but he’d like to be friends. This guy has never had a girlfriend or kissed a girl. I don’t talk to him or his friends hardly at all. This guy still says hi to me all the time on passing. A few times when he did it while I was walking with other people I didn't say it outloud back since he wasn't saying it directly to me. A mutual friend told me he asked if I was acting weird around him too and that they must value my opinion a lot because they’ve asked him a lot why I don’t respond back. I assume he's worried he hurt my feelings but he also said my best friends never told him I liked him earlier though he def. understood what she said.

Well I have said No in response to my best friends before even though I still liked her :P I just didn't want her to know anymore :) so this is a 50/50 kind of thing go with your instinct
