Does my lesbian friend have a crush on me?

I know that just because she's gay doesn't mean she's attracted to every girl, but she acts sort of silly and flirty around me, and isn't like that around almost anyone. When she gets tired, she reclines her head into my lap, stares up at me and giggles. She draws doodles on my notes, and sometimes swipes paint on my arm in art class. We're both 16, and she's never this juvenile around others. She invites me over to her house a lot, and I have slept over several times. We trust each other a lot, and she has shared a lot of stories about her life with me. We have been friends for over a year, and I'm worried that if she has a crush on me, it will affect our friendship. When she had only known me a week, before I realized she was gay and she realized I was straight, she asked me to go to the movies with her. I thought it was just a friend thing, but all of her first dates are movie dates, and she has never asked me to go the movies any other time.

    You both seem really comfortable with each other. I know as a lesbian, it would be hard to tell who I'm flirting with or who I'm just having a good time with/joking as friends with at times. You would have to ask her honestly to find out.

    Although I suppose it's always a possibility, it doesn't necessarily mean that she has a crush on you. There's a good chance that she might just consider you a close friend, especially if she knows that you are straight. I know my girlfriend (I'm a straight guy btw) has one really close friend that she opens up to and overall acts alot more open with, in a way that she would not act with her other friends. I know that given my position I can't be the best judge, but it seems to me that it just seems like she trusts you. Also, my girlfriend has only known the friend I'm talking about for a little over a year, in case you were wondering if time had a factor. Hope this helps.

    Probably not. There's nothing wrong with asking her (in private, of course).
