Whether Alberto has a crush on Luca is a question many people are wondering about. There are some signs that point to Alberto potentially having some romantic feelings for Luca, but nothing is confirmed yet. In this article, we’ll analyze their interactions and behavior to see if we can determine if Alberto does indeed have a crush on Luca.
Their History
First, let’s provide some background information. Alberto and Luca have known each other for 5 years. They met in college when they were randomly assigned as roommates freshman year. Even though they had very different personalities, they hit it off and became best friends.
After graduation, they decided to continue living together as roommates. They know everything about each other from favorite foods to childhood memories. Over the years, they’ve supported each other through difficult breakups, job changes, family issues, and more.
Their close friendship has led some people to wonder if there could be something more between them. Let’s take a closer look at some of the signs.
Signs Alberto May Have a Crush on Luca
He Gets Jealous When Luca Dates
One of the biggest signs is that Alberto seems to get jealous when Luca starts dating someone new. When Luca began seeing his recent boyfriend Enrique, Alberto started acting annoyed whenever Enrique came over to their apartment.
He would avoid hanging out with them and even made a few snide comments about Enrique. When Luca called him out on his behavior, Alberto claimed he just didn’t like seeing Luca with a boyfriend in general. But he’s never acted this way about Luca’s previous relationships.
He Finds Excuses to Touch Luca
Alberto also seems to find little excuses to have physical contact with Luca. This includes things like:
| Behavior | Example |
|---|---|
| Putting his hand on Luca’s lower back when moving past him in the kitchen | “Oh excuse me, just trying to grab some coffee” |
| Play fighting and wrestling when joking around | “Gotcha! Okay, uncle, uncle!” |
| Hugging Luca for long periods of time | “Thanks man, I really needed that hug today” |
The contact often seems to go beyond what you would expect between platonic male friends. Alberto finds reasons to touch Luca frequently.
He Remembers All the Details About Luca
Alberto is extremely attentive when it comes to anything related to Luca. He always remembers Luca’s schedule, favorite foods, the names of Luca’s family members, and tiny details about Luca’s life.
For example, when Luca casually mentioned a work project he was stressed about, Alberto followed up and asked about it for weeks until it was complete. He knows when all of Luca’s midterms are at school and wished him luck the night before each one.
This shows how closely Alberto pays attention to Luca and what’s going on in his life. He cares immensely and remembers all the details that someone with a crush would.
Moments that Suggest Romantic Tension
There are a few specific incidents that also indicate possible hidden romantic feelings between Alberto and Luca:
Camping Trip Accident
Last year, Alberto and Luca went camping together in the mountains. At one point during a hike, Luca lost his footing near a cliff and started to fall. Alberto immediately grabbed him and pulled him back against his chest into a tight embrace.
They stayed like that breathing heavily for several seconds, neither wanting to let go first. Luca looked up into Alberto’s eyes and said “You saved me, I could have died!” Alberto just nodded and finally released Luca reluctantly.
Jealous Rage at a Party
At a recent house party, Luca was chatting with a guy across the room that kept inching closer to him. Suddenly, Alberto stormed up and told the guy to back off and stay away from Luca. Later when Luca asked why he got so angry, Alberto claimed he didn’t like the look of the guy. Luca accused him of jealousy but Alberto denied it.
Nursing Him Back to Health
When Luca came down with the flu recently, Alberto took time off work to stay home and take care of him. He made Luca homemade chicken soup, kept him hydrated, and even watched Luca’s favorite movies with him. Luca said he felt really touched by how sweet and attentive Alberto was in nursing him back to health.
Alberto’s Excuses
When people insinuate that Alberto might have a crush on Luca, he always brushes it off and makes excuses for his behaviors. Common excuses include:
| Behavior | Alberto’s Excuse |
|---|---|
| Getting jealous about Luca’s boyfriends | “I just don’t want him dating a jerk is all” |
| Finding reasons to touch Luca frequently | “Hey we’ve lived together for years, we’re just really comfortable with each other” |
| Remembering all the personal details about Luca’s life | “We’ve been best friends forever, of course I pay attention to what’s going on with him!” |
However, the excuses don’t seem to fully justify the behaviors. They often come across more like rationalizations to cover up Alberto’s deeper feelings.
Conclusion
Based on the multitude of signs, moments of tension, and unconvincing excuses, it appears highly likely that Alberto does indeed have romantic feelings for Luca. The behaviors exceed what you would expect from typical male friendship.
However, whether Alberto will ever confess his crush remains to be seen. He may be too scared to reveal his true emotions and risk losing their friendship. Without a direct confession, we can’t know with 100% certainty that he has a crush. But analytically examining their interactions and dynamics points to Alberto most likely harboring secret affection for Luca.
