Question Posted Sunday July 16 2006, 5:48 am

16/f

I've been friends with this one guy for about half my lifetime, but we hadn't really become GOOD friends until the past few months. I really like him and he knows it, but he doesn't want to start a realtionship before college. He claims that he likes me back, but I don't believe him and I really don't understand how he expects me to react when he tells me that he likes me but he doesn't want to go out. WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN!? I'm kinda afraid that someone's just going to steal him away from me once he goes to college, even though I shouldn't be since he was never really mine to begin with. I don't know whether to be happy or heartbroken since I never really got a strait-up answer. What should I do? Pretend like he never existed and watch him disappear after he goes to college?

If he says he likes you but doesn't want to start a relationship, that usually means he wants you with no strings attached. to be able to have a girl to come to, but not have that "title" as a boyfriend. it's not your fault you have these kinds of feelings for him. you don't have to be happy he's leaving, but it'll probably do you some good. give you time to chill and think about everything. think about what he really means to you, what you expect out of a relationship with a guy, and how he would fit into this. if you're unhappy with the fact that you didn't get a straight-up answer, don't be afraid to ask him for one. if you don't then it'll keep bugging you, not knowing what he meant. if you still think of him as a friend, then you won't want to pretend he never existed. Just talk to him and let him know how you feel and ask him how he feels, and if he gives you an answer you don't understand, make sure you get him to explain exactly what he means so there isn't any unclear-ness between you.
