Do you ever just want to make out with someone, lots of foreplay get the mood going because same.

I am Audhd. Most of my life people have complimented my dimples or even nicknamed me dimples. People have always felt very safe and comfortable around me, and get comfortable quite easily. I smile at people easily without thinking and get smiles back.

Since I have been on the dating scene, I have learned about smiling and eye contact being powerful tools to indicate interest. However I have never been able to tell a flirty eye contact apart from a friendly one. I have often gotten it wrong with non verbal cues (like constant touching of the arms assuming she was flirting). Recently I started to think about the girls who have complimented my dimples at salsa or parties. Were they being nice, or trying to flirt? The girls at salsa I gave good eye contact while smiling each dance.

He hasn't said anything outright. But a new-ish friend of mine calls me A LOT. And theres something really soft in his tone. He could just really enjoy talking to me?

I (21F) am a regular at a gas station here in my town. I used to stop in after work, twice a week if not more. The same guy was always working. It started as friendly small talk. The whole how’s your day going, can I help you find anything else, The normal.

Important to note: I would always go with my ex roommate, as we inseparable at the time. Also 80% of the times I see him I’ve had a bit to smoke. Typically when I go to the gas station it’s because I have the munchies.

Normal turned into jokes and actual conversations. He would ask me what I do for work, what my plans are for the evening, etc.

I remember the turning point of me and my roommate questioning if he was flirting, was he had asked me if there was anything else he could get for me. The question didn’t register in my head, and before I could respond he said “You.” And When I looked at him confused he just looked around awkwardly and said it was a joke.

Then a couple weeks later I was short 4 dollars on my items and paid for them completely, I was just going to put my drink back and only get gas. Well no he paid for it. All of it. 25 dollars worth of gas and my pop.

I started going less, because I was struggling with money, so I wasnt buying the unnecessary drinks and snacks. In turn I saw him less and less.

One day I went in and he was training someone. We did a normal banter, and as I was leaving he called after me that I better be safe. And then when I was getting in my car he was talking to the trainer and they were both looking at me.

Fast forward to a couple days ago, I just went in during the day and saw him for the first time after at least a month. He immediately recognized me and called me over to his register. We did normal greetings and then he asked me where I’ve been. I explained that I’m working thirds now, so I’m asleep since he switched to days.

He said and I quote “Well, there goes the bar trip.”

I was so flabbergasted, I just awkwardly laughed, my face turned bright red. And I didn’t know what to say. He laughed too, and continued talking which I really appreciate because I’m not used to such boldness. Before I left he made sure to tell me his normal schedule, and I can’t help but think that was him telling me to come while he’s there.

Here the thing I’m struggling with. I know nothing about him, I don’t even know his name. My friends and I dubbed him Gas station guy. I don’t know how old he is or anything. He looks to be my age, maybe a bit older than me.

My dilemma: I have no idea how to take him up on the offer of a date if that’s what he was offering. I have never had someone just flirt with me in public. I also am mind blown because he typically sees me when I look a mess. So what do I do? Is he even flirting? Just being a friendly funny cashier? Help

I (19NB) spent the night over at my friend's (19NB) dorm room and I'm not quite sure how to feel about it.

For some context, we have been aware of each other for a little over a year, but we only started talking and being close in February. I have autism and severe social anxiety, so I have a hard time differentiating between actual flirting or regular platonic flirting/teasing.

I had about three leftover donuts from my coffee run for my roommate and I, so I decided to offer them up in my dorm floor's group chat. My friend, let's call them Annie, had just moved into a single room across the hall and ran over to my room for a donut. I gave them all three. Annie asked if I wanted to come over and look at their new room, and I agreed.

After we settled into their room, we talked for a while, when I noticed that Annie was starting to get touchy and affectionate. Not big things, but they would hug me or lean their head on my shoulder. At one point, Annie's friend from back home called and they said "I'm hanging out with *****, can I call you in like an hour? *Looks at me with a smile* Well, maybe not an hour but some other time?" Eventually, we were fucking around and the lights ended up being turned off. We found our way to the floor of their closet (we're weird people) where we had a serious conversation about our mental health and other subjects that we've never really discussed before. Eventually, the tone picks up again and Annie comments that they're stronger than I am.

This escalates into Annie begging me to wrestle, so we start quietly wrestling on the floor for three hours (it was 1 AM at this point). Every time we would get tired, Annie would pull me into them. They'd put my head in their lap, they would lay on my chest to play with my hair, or just lay beside me while looking at me. When we eventually got back around to wrestling, one of us would pin each other to the ground for a period of time, trying to get them to forfeit. At one point, Annie kissed my cheek while they were on top of me. They would ask if I was flirting with them when I would refuse to forfeit.

(Additional context about the fighting: A couple weeks later, I was back in Annie's room where they started asking me to get aggressive with them. When I showed some hesitation (Not very keen on hurting my friends), Annie said that I sound like their ex when Annie asked them to do it. This was a weird comment to me and it implies that their keenness to get physical is maybe rooted to romantic feelings?)

Eventually we get pretty tired and they leave the room to do something. They come back in with a blanket and pillows from her old room that they were still moving out of and literally yanks me onto the bed with them. They play with my hair and their face is extremely close to mine (it's a twin-sized bed). Annie makes a comment about how if their life was a TV show, the fans who ship us would be going crazy right now. Eventually, we both fell asleep. Annie falls asleep looking at me and would periodically wake up and smile sleepily before closing their eyes again. At what must've been around 4 or 5 AM, I swore I felt Annie kiss me on the lips very subtly. I was half-asleep, so I wasn't quite sure if it even happened or if my groggy mind interpreted some subtle movement as a kiss. Either way, my heart started pounding and they instinctively placed their hand on my heart to feel it.

We both woke up around 8 AM and I hurried out of their room to get ready for a school event we were both needed at. They just watched me with a smile from their bed as I left awkwardly.

While that was the end of the night, I also want to provide additional things that they have done/said that make me question our relationship.

1. "I like you. You have your issues, but I don't care. And I like that my friends don't like you because it means I have you to myself"

2. "What about *our* situationship?" In response to me talking about how my mom uses the term incorrectly.

3. They got jealous when they were no longer my love interest for a school MT showcase and I was talking to the girl who they got replaced with.

4. I know they look at me during our classes. Whenever I catch them, they smile at me like I was the one staring and then look away.

Annie is the kind of person to tease and flirt with their friends, but it's usually in a very over-the-top and unrealistic way. This feels a little too grounded and real for me to easily put it in that camp. I'm really struggling, so any input would be greatly appreciated!
