I’m a junior in high school (a girl), and I’ve had a crush on this senior boy for around 4 months? Things happened and quite a number of people now know about my crush, and there’s been a lot of teasing going on. He knows about it, but I’m not sure if he thinks it’s a joke or not. He is also quite annoyed by the teasing apparently.

For these past 4 months, this guy hasn’t really cared about me or made any attempt to interact with me. So obviously I resigned to my fate of a one-sided crush. But here is where I get confused. Just recently, he keeps asking a mutual friend (boy) about me, like what I think of his style etc. He also persistently asks that friend about how we had gotten close, and he repeatedly teases my friend about us (friend and I) being a couple.

In addition, he once mentioned to this mutual friend that I have a lot of guys around me and that I am more popular than he is. Basically, I am not supposed to know what this guy has been asking my mutual friend, but obviously my mutual friend cannot keep a secret. I have no idea why this guy would all of a sudden want to know so many things about me. I really have no idea what this guy wants, and why he suddenly cares so much about me, and appears “lowkey salty” suddenly after 4 months. Help with some insights please?
