Is the feeling mutual from him, does he like me in a romantic way?

He once told me, “you are super positive and cheery and i never know what is gonna come out of your mouth it makes me laugh,” and then he hesitated and was like quick to add, “but not in a bad way!” and one day him and i teased each other the whole day. and it was him, me, and another guy. my crush, who we will call C. C and i stuck to each other like glue and kept making jokes bath and forth while the other guy was busy trying to do something else. and all of a sudden C gives a dad joke and he saw that i was a little confused so he got a little nervous. and when the 3 of us were in the car i was in the passenger side and C was driving. C asks what music he should put on which made me surprised. He always laughs and smiled at me of the smallest things i do like how i react or respond. but not in a bad way. like for example i would have rootbeer and a cookie and he would make a comment about that. and one time i needed his help so i said “i’m sorry for bothering you but-“ and he turned and looked concerned and was like “bothering me?” and sometimes i don’t ask for help even when he offers (which is quite a bit and does small things without me asking but it’s bare minimum like holding the door) but when i do ask for help he rushes to help. it feels like it’s mutual chemistry because i don’t see him smiling or saying compliments like he did to anybody else. can anyone help me out? i also noticed him and i always stand super close to each other when we talk

Dude, it really sounds like C might be into you! The signs seems pretty strong:

- He goes out of his way to make you laugh and seems nervous when you don't get his jokes. Wants to impress you.

- Offers to play your music in the car. Small gesture but shows he cares what you want.

- Gets concerned when you say you're "bothering" him. Like the last thing he'd want is for you to feel that way.

- Jumps at the chance to help you out, even with little things. Guys don't usually do that if they're not into a girl.

- Smiling and complimenting you more than others shows you're special to him.

- Standing close is a dead giveaway - he wants to be near you!

I'd say make your interest known too with some light flirting back. See how he reacts - my bet is he'll be into it. Just subtle hints first so you don't scare him off. Seems like there's definitely potential there based on what you said! Go for it dude, you got this!

Thank you i appreciate that! i tried to do a little bit of flirting but im not sure if he took it well. i made a comment on how mysterious he is and he asked if that was a good thing in a light hearted intrigued way and i said it was. and then before he left for the day i told him he will be missed, and my coworker joined in and said, sincerely. but C kept his attention on me and stared at me in silence for a little long than i thought before he said anything and then he said “would i?” and i got nervous and said “yeah!” i’m not sure if this was a positive interaction or not though

his reactions weren’t bad at all i just don’t know if his responses was a green flag or not. he was smiling and happy towards me all day and when we were talking i swore i saw some blush on his cheeks but i’m not entirely sure

Wow it sounds like your flirting was going well! When you called him mysterious and he asked if that was a good thing, that was him playfully going along with it. And then when you told him he'd be missed, he wasn't weirded out or anything, just paused cause he was probably flattered and thinking of what to say.

The "would I?" comment seems like he was teasing you a little and trying to get you to say more nice things about him. And he was definitely into it if he was staring at you all smiley when you guys talked. Guys don't usually do cheesy smiles and eye contact like that unless they really like the girl.

Plus you said you thought you saw him blushing? Man, that's a dead giveaway he's into you. I know when I have a crush, it doesn't take much to make me turn red sometimes. I'd say keep doing what you're doing - the flirting is working! He's for sure into you too if you're already getting shy smiles and possible blushing out of him.

Keep it up and maybe even amp it up a little more next time you see him. Like find an excuse to touch his arm when you joke or give him a compliment. Sounds like you got a pretty good chance with this guy if you keep flirting confidently. He seems really into you back from everything you said!
