    Reeeaaaally gonna need more info there....examples of your current situation might help?

    Disregard everything he says.

    Judge his affections on his actions.

    (same way to tell if a woman likes you)

    Current situation is......kinda complicated. I live with this guy who i have a crush on(which i only realised a few weeks ago)........im currently seeing someone so its not like he will try anything. cos he knows im not that sort of girl. i only know him since 3months that i have lived with him.theres 3other flatmates in the house aswel.even though i live with him we dont c that much of each other,only some evenings or at night.i spend my time at my friends n he at his friends. we both always make the effort to stay around the house n chat when we are there. hes a great guy,really down to earth,got on together from the start.my friends have met him n they think hes really hot.n its only now that i c it!!!he compliments me alot n jokes but i dont know if thats just him or if theres more to it..............im puzzled!

    I don't think you really can know - especially if you are with someone else and he is your flatmate...in fact both those situation could mean he is more relaxed around you as he considers there no chance for a relationship to happen.

    All the best.

    You don't know if that's his reason. He may just be being friendly......despite common misconceptions, guys are actually capable of being friends without wanting anything else.

    Maybe so....still confusing though. In comparison to my other male friends, all the compliments, I dont get it??Do most lads pass girls compliments everytime they see them(interested or not)??//

    Never ever ever ever ever ever ever sleep with or start anything with housemates. That's what I always stood by. Has caused problems for anyone I know who has pursued it.

    There's no blanket sign but things to look out for are prolonged eye contact, glancing at you when you're not looking, physical contact at any opportunity, smiling a lot...

    Though really OP, you have no real way of knowing without broaching it with him and I think you're in dangerous territory here seeing as 1. you live with him and 2. you're seeing someone else. If you really fancy another guy maybe it's time to think about doing the decent thing and setting your current squeeze free. It's really not fair.

    I would echo that it is all about actions, words are just that. Does he go out of his way to get to see, talk to you..is there prolonged eye contact, touching (Eh, by that I mean hand on the should, left for a bit longer...although this might be tricky as some people are just physically affectionate)...any little signs like that.

    On a side note, do you need to know he is interest first before you dump your current partner? If you are finding yourself looking and interested in other people maybe you should become single first and do right by the person you are with.
