How do you know when a friend of the opposite sex is using you?

When they never want to just hang out without needing anything other than your companionship. If they always seem to come up with a way you can help them out and they don't ever seem to want to offer to go out of their way to do something for you then you have a pretty good idea that whether they realize it or not, they are just using you like a resource.

It seems as if people are taking ur kindness for a weakness. She is probably using u too. so stop calling her and ignore her and she will get the picture trust its easy to make friends just dont let them use u

he's making u think ur his g-friend but in reality he's just using u for what ur giving him or for what ur going to give him. and he is prolly doing this because he figures u are young, nieve, vulnerable, and gullable. he's thrown u hints already - by him not labeling u as his g-friend and by avoiding a commitment with u. so u cant be completely mad at him since he's being slightly honest.

you never know for sure unless you date for a long time, even if he sais he likes you, he could still be using you, so it is very hard to tell if he likes you

there are many different ways.  But I think that you shold ask one of ur frinds if he/she thinks that she likes you after they see how they act around you.  most of the time you can't tell yourself because ur in the picture.  Ask someone who sees how the both of you enteract with one another they will see it better than u can.

First figure out if he's really hitting on you.  Make sure that if you were to tell her what he did that it's actually really "hitting on you" and not just being nice, friendly.  You know?  Last thing you need is her taking his side and thinking you're weird.

Girls are silly, silly creatures and always are prone to have behavior that is confusing to guys.  To directly find out, yeah--just ask her or do the ol' ask-her-friend.  If she's acting silly, toying with you, playing hard-to-get, hanging around you, she seems to keep popping up, she touches you (like a pat on the back, playful punch in the arm, or "happens" to brush up against you if she's standing next to you)--if she makes ANY notion repeatedly that she acknowledges your presence, chances are you've caught her eye and kept it.  If this is the case and you kinda like her back, better do something about it!  :P

a women. with a man it just sounds like he is using her and even if that is the case, no women wants to feel used. Make her feel like u need her.

As I see there are two choices\n\n1- yes, your intuition is right, just because you are feeling it, it´s your friend and you know how it behaves.\n\n2- no, it´s you the one feeling attracted and pretending to hide behind "the feeling"\n\nEither case, in love and friendship only the one involved know...

Well, usually, you can tell if she's hanging out with you more than usual, and she listens to you, and when you say you're going to go somewhere she goes with you. Also if she likes you, she'd look at you a lot. Try to make eye contact. You can usually tell then.

There are many different types of friends - soul mates, party mates, dependable mates and those fair weather mates.  All have a personal value you place on them depending on how theyve treated you, helped you, or how you feel for them.  People can say they are your friend but only you can decide over time wether they really are!!And remember we test each other to truly see if a friend is a friend so if a friend pushes you into something you are not comfortable with - be the true friend you would want and tell them - its probably what they want to hear!(Always trust your instinct)

Sounds like he wants a friend with benefits.  He's probably messing around on you.

You're wise to be careful, but there might be at leat one among them, who is sincerely interested in being your friend, ect. Seek him out,  even if you have to trick him to come forward.

1. They talk about you a lot with their friends.\n\n2. They act differently around you.\n\n3. They tease you in a fun way.\n\n4. They dress up nicer when they're with you.\n\n5. Uncontrollable giggling (true with some girls, not me)\n\n6. Try to impress you.
