okay, i'm cut to the chase and make the story as short as possible.
there's this guy, i like him.
we had a class together this past school year.
he picked on me a lot, but in a joking way.
we both work at fast food restaurants, him at chick-fil-a, me, subway.
so yeah, i went to his job and i saw him and he said he came to subway looking for me but i wasn't working, hoping i would make him a sub, and so about a week later, (yesterday) i went there, cause i had to buy a dress, (our chick-fil-a is in our mall) and he was working and he asked me when was i going to get him a job at subway. lmao. and yeah he was just being really flirty. and he's single. (:, and he asked me when was the next time i was working and i told him and he said yeah i'm definitely not gonna come visit you and i said awh why? and he said cause i gotta be here at 9am and i wont be home until around midnight..

I never fount a dress, so me and my sister went back today and looked some more, now i know he thinks i just came to see him but i didn't, but i did look at him and he was looking right at me from across the mall, just smiling.

My friends said I should tell him, so I did.

Okay, so I confessed to him that I liked him, but he said he didn't like me in that way. I didn't have a boyfriend then, but he had a girlfriend. Me and him we're great friends. And even after I confessed we still remained as if nothing ever was said, he treated me the same. Basically, he still flirted with me tons, and he still looked me dead in the eye and smiled. But today I went to his work [which is where I normally go to see him] but I was with my boyfriend and he didn't even speak to me! Luckily, I knew the manager there and I talked to him, although the guy I originally went to see, stood there right in front of me and my boyfriend, but didn't say anything. That was so not like him!

I don't get it, why would he act this way?
Do you think he likes me secretly but doesn't think I should know because he has a girlfriend? and he definitely isn't a cheater.

Might I add that he looked at me with somewhat of sad eyes when he saw I had a boyfriend.

I was cool with him not liking me in that way, so I let it go, moved on, found someone else, and we've been dating ever since. [and I haven't been back to Chick-Fil-A to see him since he found out I was dating someone.] Well, yesterday I had to work, and I found that he had put in another application at Subway and he's planning on leaving Chick-fil-A, and he wants to work at Subway.

Is it me, or is this a big conscience? Almost too big, maybe?

If I worked at chick-fil-a, I probably wouldn't enjoy the work much either. To be honest, subway is more of a glamorous fast food place. You work with easier food and he might think that he would rather work at subway than at his place. Plus, he might be happy knowing that he has a friend at subway and he would like working with you. Maybe he doesn't get along with his coworkers.

I also get why he didn't talk to you when you were with your boyfriend. Could he like you? Absolutely. But at the same time, he could have been trying to make sure he doesn't get you in trouble and start problems. He knows about your feelings for him and he's aware of the fact that you guys usually flirt. And he also knows that flirting with you in front of your boyfriend might be a bad idea. So he didn't really know what to say. Maybe he wasn't sure how much your boyfriend knows of your history with him. He could have been protecting you.

Those are just some options. He could be interested in you as more than a friend, absolutely. I just don't want you to get too excited and have it not work out that way. It's better to be aware of all the possibilities, you know? He could have started developing feelings for you after you talked to him about your feelings. Then you got a boyfriend so nothing could happen. So he might be jealous and frustrated by the fact that you're with someone else. You could jokingly bring it up to him. Like, "ha, why were you being mr. shy when I came by your job?" and see what he says. It gives him the opening to share his feelings or explain what was going on.

But really, would you even be ready to leave your current relationship for him? That's something important to consider before you explore the possibility of him being interested in you. Why bring the feelings to the surface if nothing is going to happen? It will only create some awkward tension and possibly hurt your relationship.

Basically, he might like you. I would say there's a good chance of it. But there's a lot that you have to consider here. When it comes to your feelings about your current relationship and what you want. And nobody can tell you what to do since a lot depends on what you're feeling and whether you want to explore the possibility of him having feelings for you.

I know I didn't offer straight forward advice. I more explored possibilities with you. But this is your life and you have to be the one to decide where you go from here.

Good luck!

His manager is seventeen/eighteen. He's a senior at my high school, and him and the night manager are great friends. As well as, me and the night manager. My crush only works nights, I might add.

So would you say we might could rule that possibility out? Its okay if we can't :]

Now, I just have too figure out what he feels for me, although he already admitted he didn't like me once, but I don't know, something in me tell me different. Like, why would he go through all that trouble, (applying at Subway) if he didn't like me? You know, my mind just wanders.

He has a girlfriend, so maybe he doesn't want to hurt me nor her by letting me know he does like me, and he doesn't want to break up with someone for someone else., because that would be wrong to him.

I, as well, have someone, but I'm looking for someone else, preferably him [my crush], because things are seriously rocky between my current love interest and I. Needless to say, I'm basically just not interested anymore. I don't wish to see him anymore, talk to him, any of the sort. Sad, I know. BUT my crush thinks things are absolutely perfect between my love interest and I, because we "ACT" happy when we're together.

Hmm, I'm confused.
