so to make a LONG story short, i met a guy from the town next to me (same grade & age), we hit it off, hung out a few times and then suddenly we stopped talking for like a week (for no reason, we were just never around at the same time). now i have discovered that he is going for some girl in my school a yera younger then me. it sort of upset me at first, but then i was like "whatever" (it's not like we were dating so he can do what he wants). but anyways the thing that bugs me is that he seemed so nice, funny (and he's really cute) so i can't understand why someone who i thought was into me just suddenly changed his mind. i really don't have a lot of experience with boys (i'm 17 and have only had 1 boyfriend, which was in middle school, so that doesn't count). i guess i am just asking for a clue as to why he would have done this? he was really a nice person so i can't really figure it out. also, how do you meet guys over the summer. i mean like ithout saying go to camp, becuase i'm not. i only work, and it's just with 2 other girls. thanks!

You may think he likes you and that could be true but guys do tend to get a little bored with the same girl unless it's someone they love. Just because someone smiles and is friendly and likes you doesn't nessarcerally mean that he really really likes you if you know what I'm getting at. Just watch him though, and if you see any signs that he's using you then hold back. Not all guys are as they seem to be. Daniel. [ jumadel's advice column | Ask jumadel A Question ]

Maybe if you feel brave enough you could call him and just be like "hey. what's up?". see what happens and if you feel uncomfortable tell him you have to go eat dinner or something. don't try to take the other girl's place, just call as if you were casual friends.
Also you could meet guys over the summer through your gal friends. Ask them if they know any cute guys to set you up with. Also maybe if you have a town pool or a near-by beach, hang out there and see if you can meet someone.

You got your hopes up, which who wouldn't it proably seemed perfect. No you weren't going out, but i can see why you're mad..can't he at least give you a heads up?! But i have no doubt in my mind that he didnt think about you before going out with this other gurl. Reasons why he could have is because of the different town/school/work situation or because maybe he didnt see you enough or even because he thought you were too good for him. The one boyfriend thing, you should not be worried about..you'll have time=] But i would deff. talk to him and in a least-embarassing-way possible ask him..why? and then let it go. Some greeat places for guys in the summer is public pools and malls...that's why guys go to malls, they're looking for s!! =]=]
