    Ok

    I meet my guy friend in October and we got close. Hes very sarcastic though and alot of my college friends dont like him, and i get alot of guff about his "asshole" comments "How could you like him etc"

    ..but he captured my heart in the "love to hate" him way. I think its fair to say we're fairly comfortable with eachother and everytime i see him in the hall or class, we both meet eachother with an amusing smile. One of my friends said im "the only one who likes him for him". And i do, he is nice and i think his asshole sarcasm is a cover tbh.

    Hes revealed his vunerable side to me when we were alone, such as when i broke up with my boyfriend (who he mocked when i was taken) ,he shared his view on breaking up with his girlfriend. And he also talked about his family and seemed at ease chatting about them to me. We often have discussed the fundamentals of relationships etc. And we do have banter with witty remarks, like we're thinking the same things..

    However, im friends with this other girl. And he made a move on her by kissing her but she rejected him. She told me this and he didnt.
    But he did tell me he fancied another girl in our year. And im just like "hello???? kiss me! I actually like you for who u are!!!"

    I kinda feel im in the friend box and wanna get out of it fast as i think we could make a relationship work. We click but i dunno if hes seeing it that way or maybe its the fact he knows he has me....?

    My year is ending now and we're all going our seperate ways and i think we'll lose contact.
    Help?

    This sounds like you're getting dangerously close to "Nice Guy" territory. You can't make anyone see that you're best for them, because they might not think you are. The only thing you can do is that if it matter to you that much then you should make your feelings to him clear. From there, the ball is in his court.

    If its getting close to the end of year and you fear you might lose him then maybe theres nothing for it now. If the situation came up where you could make a move yourself or as Count Dukula says maybe just sit him down and explain how you feel. It might change the dynamic in a bad way too but if youre running out of options it might be worth considering.
