This is probably going to sound really strange, selfish, and wishful, but there's a guy I like. He's funny, sweet, and just plain awesome. However, he says he has a fiancée...thing is, he rarely (and I mean RARELY) talks about her. Nobody here has ever met her. Nobody has talked to her on FaceBook, or has had any interaction whatsoever to prove she exists. And the biggest thing is, he doesn't act at all like a guy who's engaged, in love, or even in a relationship at all! He flirts with me CONSTANTLY, hardcore, and I flirst back. We're constantly exchanging sexual banter and innuendo, and he has NEVER said anything about him having a girlfriend or maybe he shouldn't or his girlfriend would be jealous...
If he does have a girl, I'm totally fine with that. I've been respectful of his supposed relationship up until lately, when I've started to flirt (more obviously), to kind of test him. But I've had experience with people making up significant others; my best friend in 9th grade was a compulsive liar, and made up several people, and went to great lengths to get others to believe in them. This whole thing with this guy's "fiancée" feels exactly like that; my intuition is making the "liar identification" bells in my head go berserk.
And I suppose if it is even possible that he's making her up...what does that say about him? Knowing him, the first thing that comes to my mind is that it keeps girls from hitting on him, as a protective thing (simply because, to be honest, I've told strange guys that I have a boyfriend to get them to go away; what girl hasn't??). If that's so, it could easily be that, if he now likes/trusts me, he doesn't want to lose my respect by admitting that this girl (or his relationship to her) doesn't exist.
Yeah, so I'm totally...baffled by this, and really have no clue where to go and what to do from here...We graduate in 8 days, and there's a good chance that, if I don't make a move now, I might never get that chance. What should I do?? How can I figure out if this girl is real??
