hey girls

so my mate has been flirting with me recently and its a diffrent kind of flirting .he would say stuff about us having a future then it would be awkward for a abit then he would say jooookes.so I developed feelings for him and so told him I like him.he never said if he did or didnt like me

he would ignore the question everytime I bring it up. me and him have been friends for 5 years and have been messing around like friends with benefits but feelings were never involved because he had a gf

he still flirts with me the same way

I just wanna know if he likes me back or not and we haven't had the time to talk about it in person
