When a guy tells you "I just don't want to rush into things" does this mean he is no longer interested in you?
You see there is this guy I met at my friend Rachel's birthday party. He then asked my friend who I was and found me on myspace and instant messaged me. Last week he wanted to meet me in the hallway before and after class. Rachel keep telling me how much he really liked me.... yesterday when we went out to the buses he gave me a kiss on the cheek. Then I went over to his house later and we just sat together on the couch and hung out...well today at the end of the day I barely even got a hug from him...when I asked him what was up he said that he didnt want to rush into things becuase he didnt want to get hurt like he did last time with his ex girlfriend...
Was that just a nice way of saying "I'm not into you anymore"

I know its hard even though its really new, but wait for him to call or email you. Make plans with your friends for the weekend. He may also like the chase at first, so give him that. I think he very much still likes you since he was the one who asked about you, but I wonder if he likes hard to get?
Good luck and keep me posted. [ Ivy921's advice column | Ask Ivy921 A Question ]

Judging from what you have said, it's very possible that he is truly concerned about getting hurt. He's made a lot of effort to meet you, spend time with you and get to know you and it may just be that he believes the relationship has potential but is afraid of what might happen if something should go horribley wrong.
The best thing you can do in this situation is give him as much space as he needs. Leave him be for a bit and let him come to you. If he really does like you, he's not going to let you go completely and if absence does make the heart grow fonder, it may just wash away his fears for good!
