Ok question, the guy I like is neurodivergent and I’m neurotypical. We’ve been texting and have a funny, playful, bullying relationship. He asked if he could text my bestie (whos played video games with us) because he’s never talked girls before (pt 1)

And didn’t know if it was weird or not and I obviously told him yes. Well, he’s been texting her about the anime (they both like that and I don’t) and video games as well which I don’t mind. However, what’s weird is that he’ll respond to her before me and actually start conversations with her by asking questions. So my main question is, does he like me or her, or does he just want to be friends with both of us? My friend said she thinks it’s because he’s talking about his interests. Pls lmk!!

This reminds me of a post I saw the other day If you like someone ND you have to be very direct with pointing that out to them. We do not pick up on regular social cues. One chick was like I sat on his lap half naked and he wouldn’t even look down bc he didn’t want to offend her. Lmao.

Honestly it just sounds like he’s excited because they share similar interests. But please be direct with him because he probably doesn’t realize how it’s making you feel

He also told me he’s talked to very few girls before and that my friend and I are apart of the small number. He said he’d never have a chance with any of them (so sad bc you literally do idiot) and when I said me and my friend didn’t have to talk to him he said that it was friendships and he knows his limits 😔

Also, one more thing to add, he gave her his log in to a streaming service for anime and offered to buy her a video game he’s really into, he did say to her that he’d offer to buy it for me as well but that he didn’t think my laptop could handle the game, although he never asked me

He’s definitely giving her special/preferential treatment, and that’s a little unfair to you. Often times ppl subconsciously do that when they have a crush though. If it bothers you you should tell him how you feel

This’s what i’m worried about. I think I can build up enough courage to tell him, just not yet. Him, my friend, and I are hanging out soon and when we made those plans he was like oh you’ll have to bring your friend back down when my friends come so she can meet them with you. I think that once we hang in person i’ll know more about what he’s feeling/how he’s acting. There’s been other things between him and I, just too much to write here. I wanted to ask ND people their thoughts as I cant tell

From what you’ve said it could still go both ways but you’ve got a shot if you’re up front with him and your friends an actual friend

Yes she knows, she would never let anything happen between them. She’s already threatened death on him if he tries lol.
