Just friends or more than friends?

[Confused Girl]

A friend of mine used to like this guy and we used to be around him a lot so that he would notice her but one day the guy came over and started talking to me and we ended up adding each other on facebook and we started chatting everyday.

Few days before, my best friend at work quit and I was really upset about it and this guy actually texted me saying I know your are really upset that he has left, but dont worry. I ll be there for you. And always keep smiling.

Since then I feel like he pays too much attention to me while at work. He always texts me compliments when at work and makes it a point to sit somewhere around me and people have told me he keeps looking at me whenever he can. Now my friends tease me a lot when he is around and off late his friends have started teasing him as well. And everytime he seems to blush. I asked him if it doesnt bother him that everyone is making fun of us… he replied so what. Let them if they want to. not our prob.

I started talking to his best friend recently and that guy asked me if I have a crush on his friend. I told him I dont think your friend likes me that way. If he did he must have told me or you by now right. ANd he said yeah. Right. I ll just causally ask him about you and lets see what he says. But he is a really good guy. ANd you should probably date him.

And whenever he notices that I am sad or upset about something at work, he immediately texts me and tries to cheer me up. I slowly started falling for this guy and I think he kind of knows that I am falling for him.

The other day, things got really messed up because one of his friends (a girl) went off the line while teasing and I felt really upset about it. Later my friends joined in as well in teasing me about him. This guy kind of yelled at his friends for doing so and later spoke to one of my friends that he dint want them to be bothering me anymore about this asking if they ***** see that it made me upset.

Now my friends feel that of all the things he said and did this clearly indicates that he sees me more than a friend. But when I asked him why he said like that to my friend, he just replied that “I dont think I did anything wrong. I just told him stop bothering my frnd(me).”. And he added, that he was gona b around only for two more weeks and he didnt want to see me des 2 weeks sad but rather be happy and enjoy it.

I asked him “so you are leaving me as well huh?” ANd he said. “No! Why do you worry? I will really miss seeing you but I will never give upon you and I ll always keep in touch.”

And last night he is upset with me because I went for lunch alone and didnt ask him if he would want to join. I said I didnt realise you would want to come with me because you are always with your friends (wherever he goes he goes with these two guys that he is close two and even when he talks to me his best friend is always around like a few feet away from us.) And he just said, but if u wer der it ll b more fun.

Everyone that knows about us says he seems to like me more than a friend and only I am not getting it. I do have a feeling that he likes me but then under the circumstances that we met, I sometimes worry if he is only genuinely trying to fill out my best friend’s (the guy that left work) place and I am gona screw up things by asking him out or something.

I am really worried now because I know deep down I am really falling for this guy and I just dont want to have my heart broken incase he was only being friendly and I misinterpreted it.

Can someone help me understand this.

I have a problem like that if you can look at my question but I think he does like you. It also might be a good idea to see if your friend is okay with it. Losing a friend over a boy is dumb.
