We were sitting outside at a party and I said to my female friend, “OMG it’s really cold! I wish I had a jacket!” And he was smiling and he said, “Oh, I have a jacket…does someone want my jacket?” And I looked at him with a sly smile on my face and I asked him, “Are you offering your jacket?” And he was like, “Yeah, here, you can have it.” And he passed it to me and I was like, “Wait…are you sure? You’re not cold?” And he’s like, “Nah, I’m okay.”
marieHow old are you and what is your question?
Miss_AspiringHe offered his jacket because you said you were cold. This does not necessarily mean he likes you… if that’s what you were implying.
justanothergirlI’m 16. My question is why he offered me his jacket and what it means, if it means anything at all.
justanothergirl@Miss_Aspiring 100% understood. Some people say he was just being nice and some people say he was being flirty. That’s why it’s confusing to me.
Miss_AspiringBased on the information given, he is just being nice. Does he do or say anything else that makes you think he might like you?
justanothergirlNot really? But then again, I’m not good at picking up signals at all lol. He talks to me sometimes and once we exchanged some flirty eye contact.
justanothergirlAnyone else?
marieNo don’t read anything into that, He sounds like just a nice guy who gave a young girl his jacket because she said she was cold. Did he asked you for your phone# or tried to talk to you at any time during the evening?
Do not go reading into his actions, and assuming he likes you. you will only get disappointed.
If he really kike you in that way, he would find a way to communicate it to you
justanothergirl@marie Lol thank you :) He is also a young boy. He is 16 or 17 years old. Did you know that? And yes, he did try to talk to me. And at one point we exchanged some flirty eye contact.
MariaHe is flirting, but don’t read too much into it. It is a little too much analyzing for a young girl. Just flirt back. Next time you see him say you wish it was cold outside and have a longer than usual eye contact and smile mysteriously. He will be on the clouds for a week. lol
justanothergirl@Maria Thank you for taking time to answer :) See, you say he’s flirting while other people say he’s not flirting, but he’s just being friendly. I don’t know which one it is and yes, you are right, I DO read a lot into things! But like, this is really confusing me!
SarahLol I remember being like this when I was young.
justanothergirl@Sarah Really? Share! I wanna know what you think! Come on ;)
Gemini615Sweetie while I can appreciate your young minded enthusiasm and eagerness when it comes to boys…he’s just a boy! Remember that. You will meet many many boys and then men as you get older, and he probably won’t be the first to offer you a jacket. He might have been flirting, he might just be being friendly, none of us are mind readers so it’s hard to tell. But don’t get so worked up over a small interaction because you will drive yourself crazy. Just remember that he was sweet to you and you shared a moment and If there is more to come from that then it will happen naturally.
justanothergirl@Gemini615 Thank you! I appreciate it :) That’s actually great advice, I will keep it in mind. The next time I see him, I’ll think about that ;)
justanothergirlOkay everyone! I have an update. Today, I saw the guy at school for the first time in 5 days (I hadn’t seen him since the party). I was sitting behind him with a group of friends at a table and he was also chatting with a group of friends at a table. He kept turning his head to look at me. Sometimes, I would ignore him. But other times, when I would look at him, he would already be loping at me. Why does he do this??? Why does he want to catch my eye? He didn’t even try to talk to me, so if he’s not going to talk to me, why would he keep trying to catch my eye??? It’s annoying.
Also, he is a really outgoing and popular guy in school. He’s good looking, he’s fit, and the whole school knows him. He is charming, flirty, funny, and outgoing. I mean, I’m pretty much exactly like him, but even I sometimes think he’s “flirting” with me just because he knows he’s hot and that he’s not serious about flirting with me. I would know, because I do it pretty often.
redcurleysueI think he thinks you are attractive and he has the makings of a gentleman to offer you his jacket. That is very nice and thoughtful.
For a young man to show more interest he has to make a move….it is on him to do so.
Many moons ago…when I was 13 a young man called me and then came to my house on his bicycle. A couple of weeks later he asked me to a dance. So if a boy of 13 can do all that a young man of 16 certainly can if he can get up the courage.
You just be your sweet charming self and if he wants to know more about you he will find a way…that is a challenge for him and he has to rise to it.
justanothergirl@redcurleysue Haha awwwww :) Such a young, beautiful love story. I know this is a weird thought, but…he is so popular in school and he hangs out with a lot of other pretty girls. AND he most likely knows he’s hot and he’s super confident. I can tell. He comes off as confident, flirty, charming, but also sweet and funny.
Sometimes, I feel like I’m imagining it all in my head, I’m imagining him looking at me and I am reading too much into how he lent me his jacket. You know what I mean? Is that weird for me to think that way?
kayeYou already know that he’s outgoing and popular and super confident. Those kind of guys know to ask a girl for her number or out on a date. I promise you if he’s interested you’re going to know soon enough!! :)
Newbie@kaye Thank you!!! Lol I guess so :) But what do you think? Why do you think he is always trying to catch my eye?
kayeMaybe he’s looking at you because you’re always looking at him!! Lol A trick I used to do in high school to see if a boy was staring out me was to fake a yawn. Then if you look over and he’s yawning you know he was looking at you!! Used to work for me all the time!! :)
justanothergirl@kaye Haha lol :) But could it also be because he finds me attractive? Let’s be honest here.
justanothergirl@kaye And you know, he didn’t have to offer me his jacket ;) Explain that to me! Explain why he offered his jacket to me.
XyzLol.. Exhausting…
Now I know why I chose not to have kids… Why? Why? Why? :-) -
