Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
Well your first problem is that he already has a girlfriend, so starting any kind of 'more than friends' relationship now is not really a good idea at the minute. The best thing to do is just to make the effort to keep being friends with him, so ask to meet up a few times.
Whether you tell him how you feel is a tough one, because if you do tell him and he is not interested in that way then it might not be the same but if you don't and he does like you then you are losing your chance with him. You have to think to yourself do you have such stronger feelings for him, that its worth losing your friendship??
But i personally think you should wait untill he is single before even considering telling him how you feel.
Oh and the whole soph and freshman thing, if it doesn't affect you, him or your relationship, it doesn't really matter.

Hello,
Are you OK? If you need a live person to talk to, I will be more than happy to have a life coach call you, free of charge.
He has a girlfriend, The moral thing to do would be to leave him alone until she is out of the picture.
You are right, telling him would make things awkward since he has a girlfriend already. On the other hand, guys are ego maniacs and instead of dating you, he is settling for someone else because he is too 'shy' to tell you how he feels.
Say nice things to him and do nice things for him. If you really want to win his heart, read a book called 'The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands.' Google it.
I know, you are not planning to marry him, but you more than likely will marry someday. That book is the key to keeping a man happy. They need their ego stroked, it will tell you how!
Please, focus on school and improving yourself. Save yourself for him if you must, but do not let it stop you from living.
Above all, be honest with yourself and everyone around you. Yes, you can be in love with someone and not tell them. It is not lying when telling them will break up an existing relationship for personal gain. You can however, slip once and say 'I love you' and then never say it again unless you are in his arms on your wedding night. If he notices that you said it and he asks you about it,
Answer with "I did?" or "Did I?" Then ask "Why? Do you love me?"
The not texting back when you text first issue, is easy to solve. Stop texting him first. Only text when he does it first. Make him initiate contact, you respond, that is it.
Now just brcause you cannot kiss him, does not mean that you cannot kiss up to him. When you do text him, after he's initiated contact, be the woman that worships the ground he walks on. He will come around, or he won't. The important thing is that you get to know him to see if you really are in love with him.
Good Luck! Remember we can call if you'd like to talk.

This was rated a 4. Not sure why? I did assume that you are still a teenager. You stated it in your question. This is good advice and may have been ranked unfairly. The bottom line is that you are going to make yourself sick thinking about his boy that you call a guy. A guy is someone who has reached early adulthood. It is not healthy for you to continue to 'think you love him'. U
Unfortunately, you are not as mature as most 16 year old I have known. Otherwise you would see how valuable this advice is, and follow it.
Never the less, if you need someone to talk to we are here.
