i’m (26F) sick and tired of wondering if he likes me (30M)

i like this guy, A LOt, it’s so fucking annoying. but i’m not sure if he likes me back. he flirts when he’s drunk, but when he’s sober he doesn’t give me much attention, except sometimes looks at me when we’re in a group.

this girl in our grad class told me she thinks he likes me, and literally told everyone else the same thing too. i denied it.

during dinner today, it was just me and her and him. i ordered katsu (a big piece of fried pork), and told them to try some because it was huge. he said he’ll have a piece, so i started cutting it then he took my knife and fork and instead of cutting one piece just for himself he cut the whole katsu into small pieces for me. the girl said “see this is why i thought he liked you! he’s so nice to you”. so he pretended to cut up her bowl of rice as a joke.

but she said “i thought” which means she doesn’t think he likes me anymore, i think she told him what she thinks when i wasn’t there and he denied it? i’m not sure, but im dying to know . because when she mentioned it, he just asked her who else thought it too. he didn’t seem surprised but i was avoiding his face .

i don’t know what to do it’s stressing me out, i really want this “does he/does he not” feeling to go away.
