It sounds confusing because she's flirting yet telling you about other guys. Either she's telling you about the other guys to make you jealous or she is saying it as a hint to let you know she's still not interested. If I were often telling a guy I hang out with about other guys, then it would be because I didn't want him making a move on me. But I don't know this girl well enough. Hmmm...you've got me stumped on this one. Anyone else have an insight to this? Also, faa09, could you be more specific about what she is telling about the other guys and how she is flirting with you?

Thank you sandrose80 for replying,


So about her flirting, she's always teasing me, about how i got a big butt lol, she's always touchy and her tone of voice. and we talk and text alot. As for the other guys, when im out, she says stuff like "were there any cute boys?"..ect also she's totally into these annoying "games" where she acts like she doesn't care or then gets sort of mad when i check out girls, and doesn't call that much, so i don't always pick up when

I am really flirtatious with my one friend and touch him a lot, but that's because I'm interested. However, he's the one that put me in the friend zone so when I talk to him about other guys, it's mainly to show him that: a) I'm cool with being friends (i.e., I don't talk about anything I wouldn't talk about with any other friend) and b) to try to make him jealous. I'm not sure if this would apply to your female friend.... it sounds a little like she is playing games with you.

You can flirt with her and ask her (maybe playfully) when she is going to let you take her out. If she says never, then at least you know where she stands. The rejection will suck but you'll have to risk it to get an answer that way.

Or you can ask her straight out if she likes you. Hopefully she is used to blunt questions from friends and can take it without feeling all awkward about it. Just don't act awkward about it yourself.

Thanks, I guess i can try that. But i still don't get why some girls flirt and act like they like you, but they don't really.
