I've always had a hard time making and keeping friends for some odd reason. I like people and I like talking to and connecting with people. But I've learned the hard way that just because someone is interested in you, it doesn't mean they see you as a romantic interest. Unfortunately I'm usually on the other end. I hate to make anyone think I'm leading them on. I do like them, but I'm the kind of person who shows affection even if I don't want a relationship. But I also end up doing things as if I like the person romantically.

For example, my brother's friend has been hanging around us a lot. We get along well and he's one of the nicest guys my brother happens to be friends with. He actually makes an effort to include me and talks to me a lot. I like talking to him, but my brother seems to think we're flirting. I have a feeling he has a crush on me but is being polite about it because I'm his friend's sister. IE: he sat really close to me on the couch, gave me a high 5 for something I said, but held onto my hand and then rested his hand on my leg even after I let it go. Then he apologized for intruding and said he would leave me alone lol. I'm also trying not to make it seem like I'm leading him on. I don't do well in relationships and I know that if anything were to happen, it will probably mean the end of their friendship or it would be super awkward being around him... so I've been avoiding him and not coming home.

But well, the thing is, I've been FB stalking him. It doesn't mean anything though... I pretty much cyber stalk everyone. Call me weird, but I'm curious about people and what they're up to. I do get turned on by some people but very rarely.. I'm definitely not asexual, but sometimes I wonder if I started becoming sexually interested in people just to fit in. I'm a very affectionate person and I don't mind hugging and even kissing people, but when it comes to seeing and hanging out with one person all the time and becoming attached, I tend to feel like I should back off..

Yes you are leading him on. You should stop if you have a conscious.
