I asked a boy if he liked me..?

[Supermeggs12]

He said, "I don't know," generally what does that mean?

[Green Arrow]

It means... he doesn't know/wont accept that he likes you

Why wouldn't he be able to accept it?

True most guys are like that

Funny, if I ever tell a girl I like her, it ruins all possible chance to get to know each other further and start a relationship.

He said idk.... he doesn't like u

I'm sorry, if he can't just say yes or says he "doesn't know", he probably doesn't. When it comes to potential romance, I firmly believe you just know these things or you're willing to take the chance. If there's doubts or you don't know, it's not really worth pursuing. I'd honestly take that as more of a no.

So what does that mean?

I think you should give him some space. I bet he feels disoriented and confused. Act natural, don't look desperate. Even if inside you may be very excited, anxious or anything like that, try to look more relaxed and confident. Boys like girls with confidence.
I never tell a boy that I love him. We just get closer and closer.

It means he's probably not mature enough to give you a straight answer. I'd rather get rejected than to get an answer like that because at least its definitive and you could move on from it. Telling someone "I don't know" puts both of you in a stagnant state of awkwardness until he grows enough balls to say what he's most likely already felt in the first place. Being in touch with your feelings is not hard, in fact, it's natural. If you've never liked chocolate and have never had any inclination to ever want to eat chocolate then, chances are, you don't like chocolate. Waiting another week or until you're comfortable admitting your feelings for chocolate isn't going to change that feeling. It's selfish, it's immature, and it puts an unnecessary burden on both you and him. There can be some variables to consider however (maybe he isn't allowed to have a girlfriend, maybe he's worried it would destroy your friendship should things go sour) but even then he should've discussed these things with you right then and there instead of giving a bitch answer like "I don't know."

As a male I can honestly tell you I have never been "confused" about whether or not I like a girl. I believe I speak for the majority when I say liking someone is a natural inclination/affection that attracts you to that person for whatever reason. How could anyone be confused about that? If a girl I liked asked me out theres no way in hell I would suddenly become distraught and confused over my feelings, in fact the exact opposite would happen. I would feel relief and accepted now that someone I like was attracted to me, not angst. So even if this kid does end up saying yes it would probably be an unnatural, forced affection he created after he realized he could actually have a girlfriend (you'd be surprised at how many guys I know who have done this).
