Does it mean anything if a guy...

[asahi82]

So I have this friend and he said that my car has a very distinct smell...like smokey and very sweet (I'm a smoker). I asked for some clarity but he said he can't really describe it but it's just a very distinct smell. I initially thought he was joking because a few weeks ago, I stated that his room has a very distinct smell...musky and almost sweet...but he said his statement is entirely true and it doesn't relate to my previous statement.

Oh I almost forgot to mention that when he made that statement about my car, I told him I think my car actually smelled like him...then he said really and gave me his beanie that he was wearing and asked me to sniff it and tell him if it smells like that. I told him yeah my car smelled like his beanie but stronger.

So, my question is since a person's car and room is kind of an extension or a representation of a person...does that mean he likes the way I smell or possibly likes me! Maybe it's a pretty far stretch or I'm probably being delusional but I just wanted some input on the situation. If you guys could let me know what you think I would really appreciate it! Thanks!


*sorry for the long post*

 

[hotb0d]

yea....you're just delusional.

 

[trikky]

it could mean something but it is a stretch. You need to crank it up a bit to find out, like telling him you like how he smells and what deorderant is he wearing, and check his reaction

Why don't you ask him?

I'll just quote the Lube Rule:

If you think a guy might be gay, he's gay.
If you think a guy might be interested, he's interested.

"Smokey and very sweet", sounds like 420?

I like the way this room smells, so that means I want to suck your cock.


I like the logic.

 

[rareboy]

^ I may try it.

You like my eau de cologne????

Let's fuck like monkeys.

Best to find out from him...ask him!

Thanks for responses...some were helpful and others were freakn' hilariously!

So, today was a great day and very unexpected...

The day started off when I jokingly text this same friend that I wanted him to bring me my favorite smoothie and drop it off at my workplace...after 15-20 mins no text response from him. This friend has a tendency to not respond to text messages or return phone calls from anyone so I deicded to text him jokingly that expecting a response from him was expecting way too much!

After an hour or so, he text me back asking when I was planning to take lunch. I told him maybe in a half hour or so. I asked him seriously if he wanted to meet up and he said sure. So he drives from his house, stops at the smoothie shop to pick me my favorite smoothie, he then picks me from my work and takes me out to lunch. It's so funny and sweet...I didn't expect this from him at all!

It's really weird because he claims to be straight but none of my other straight guy friends behaves this way. There are other things that we do together that might seem questionable when viewed from straight eyes. lol! I really don't want to put too much thought into the situation but I don't know maybe he does have feelings for me...

A little background about my friend:
24 yr old virgin
doesn't talk about girls too much
never masturbated in his entire life
he is ok with not getting married and just living with his dog in a cabin and his hunting rifle


What do you guys think? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!

LoL, that's like my friend. We both work in Pharmacy, and I actually recently transferred to his store. After the first day, he asked me how I like it.

"It's great," I said, "It smells like you every where."

"I'm sorry, I think."

"No, it's fucking great, I could curl up in a corner and die happy."

I think you are maybe looking too much into something that might not be there.

He made a simple statement about the smell of your car. He didn't say, "Lalalala it smells like this and it reminds me of you when I'm at home alone", he said, "It smells smokey and sweet.".

Him bringing you a smoothie that you like sounds like a friend being attentive to what you need. If you liked a banana/orange/protein shake smoothie (and he knew that and you ordered it often) would it make sense for him to bring you an apple/beet/parsely shake? No, of course not.

I think you like this guy. That's ok. But, maybe he's just being a good friend.

 

[G-Lexington]

He's gay.
G-A-Y.
Gay.

I quite love this rule When I was in high school, I unfortunately had issues with this rule sometimes. The only thing you can do is be honest with him or drop it.

Thanks for all the responses again!

@ Lex: Maybe not Gay but bi...idk

Yeah, maybe I'm just looking for things that are not there...I just don't know. Honestly, I really don't want to be attracted to him because he acts like a kid sometimes but then they are times when it’s just me and him...then everything seems perfect! I wouldn't say we are best friends but there is a connection there because he seems to listen to what I have to say or he does things for me when I ask. It's weird because his best friends wouldn't describe him as a good friend lately because he never wants to hang out with them or returns their phone calls...

I have another story that I want some perspective on:

Here I go again...so last night he just got back to the house from walking the dog and he says to me that his clothes smells like the dog. I said that's cool so what's new (I was joking of course). He then goes into his room and he is in there for awhile...he finally comes back into the living room and decides to sit next to me on the couch. We were just hanging out on the couch and watching TV. Then I notice that he smells different...so I asked him what's that smell..."did you put on deodorant?" He said no, "I just sprayed on some cologne” I tell him it smells good and it has a very distinct smell. He said, "Yeah I just didn't want to smell like a dog."

I think his statement and actions is very unlike him because he never cared about how he smelled like before...there would days when he would smell like a pair of dirty old tennis shoes and it didn't phase him. Why wear cologne when he's just hanging out with me?

IDK, maybe I'm just trying to find meaning in the littlest of things when there is no such meaning whatsoever.

What do you guys think? Should I just move on and let it go? Thanks for the help!

 

[ucfknight12]

Either you move on and let it go or you just ask him, that's all you can really do. I'm sorry I can't be of any more help.

Maybe one day, he walked outside to clean air and realized "Oh, god. I stink", or maybe someone told him "Hey, Larry. Your clothes smell like grandma!" and he got embarrassed, and is now super-conscious of it.

Or maybe he's just a weird "smell" guy. . .like they'd show on Seinfeld or Sex And The City or something.




Absolutely none of this has any allusion whatsoever to him wanting to have sex with a man.

This is soon going to be moved to the fetish forum.

 

[G-Lexington]

Let's say your observations are spot on. He's gay (or bi) and interested.

...now what?

Lex

 

[Lube]

^Yeah he sounds too friendly to be just a friend. As Lex and others point out, you two are moving at a glacial pace. The polar ice caps may melt before you two kiss..

So, yeah, what are you gonna do about it?
