Every since his friend checked me out he's been trying to hook us up?

Question

I'm best friends with this guy "Jake"

Jake has a male best friend too named "Max"

Max and I don't really know each other that well, we have a few mutual friends including Jake and some others, and we had like one class together last year.

So, at the end of the school year last year it was hot and I was wearing my "athletic clothes" (shorts, and a T shirt w/ flip flops) So, we're all standing in a circle me, my friend (girl), Jake, Max, and like 2 or 3 other guys.

And then Max starts checking me out like a slow full head-toe scan, twice! Then, he looks up and I just look at him and he has this stupid look like he didn't realize that I noticed him scanning me. Every since that day Max checked me out he's been trying to hook me and Jake up... Why is he trying to get us together?

Answer 1

A lot of this depends on whether you like Jake romantically. I'm thinking that maybe "Jake" likes you but can't work up the courage to ask you out, so he mentioned his problem to Max, Max checked you out and told his friend Jake that "Yeah, she's cute. I'll try and hook you up".



If you want to date Jake, then don't go through a middleman, talk to JAKE. Be direct. As in "Jake, do you like me? Would you like to take me out on a date?"



If you don't want to date Jake you should still be direct and honest with him. Then tell Max to mind his own business.

Answer 2

He's probably a little embarrassed that you caught him checking you out, and wants to take the attention off of it by distracting you with Jake. He probably doesn't have a crush on you, just thinks you're attractive, so it's not like he would be losing out by hooking you up with Jake.

Answer 3

Maybe jake likes you or he's trying to get u. Most likely jake probably likes you and he's trying to see why make likes you. Or he thinks you guys should hook up or something. Hope I helped.



Oh yeah, try asking jake what's up with him or talk to him yourself.

Please answer mine.
