Answer this question if you have had experiences with crushes!
so here is a little background is this guy at school who has a crush on me. (the only reason i know is because his guy friends told me.) i asked him how long he has had feelings and it was since mid-october, but i only ever found out on november 12. do you think you'd know why he was keeping a secret for that long? also, him and i have done cross country together for a few months. he is the complete opposite of very outgoing and talkative guy but for some reason whenever i talk to him he just says 1 or 2 words and he says it very quietly.
so enough with the background stuff.. let's get down to irl events.
our school is having a snowball dance was too nervous to ask him out to the dance so i ask one of his guy friends to do it for me. he asks him and he says something
" i don't "
a week later i ask another one of his guy friends to ask the same thing to him. after class, his friend told me that he was "still scared".
another week later i finally ask my girlfriend to ask was wondering if i would get a different response from him. but this something else happened.
this time i told my friend to not say my name to him, but rather say "someone".
he simply said 'no', but when my friend started to walk back in my direction, i guess he knew that i was asking him, and he started to blush really hard and he looked like he knew he did something wrong based on his lol

what could these things mean? why do you think he did some of these things? do you have any advice? why was he so indecisive at the beginning when he knew that i was asking him out? tysm!
