I'm totally crushing on a boy at school. I'm 14, he's 16. We talk a lot, he is always coming over to strike up a convo, he's super nice and has an amazing sense of humor. He hugs me occasionally, and calls me pretty. Does he like me back?

HIS ANSWER: It depends. Does he show the same attention to other girls at school? If so, don't read to much into it. If not, he may like you. But because he's older, you also need to figure out if he sees you like a "little sister."

DECODED: This guy seems to really like you but it's not clear whether he sees you as just a friend or as a girl he'd like to date. Either way, it sounds like you've found a really great guy pal.

YOUR MOVE: Check to see how he acts around other girls. Does he hug them or give them compliments, or are those things he only does with you? If he only does it when he's with you, chances are he likes you. Also, try flirting with him and see how he responds. If he flirts back, he probably likes you.
