About a month ago I went to this concert with my friend. It was an amazing concert and we met a huge group of boys there (like 10 of them). We found out they live in a town about thirty minutes away from where we live and we exchanged phone numbers. So I was texting a few of them but one guy and I really understood eachother and got a long great. We had deep conversations about drugs, religion, and we both thought it was awesome with could be so open with eachother. His name is Alec. About a week or two after the concert we hung out with one of the guys named Zac and only him. That was the only time we seen any other them since the concert. We have talked about hanging out again. I still have contact with all them but not daily, every once in a while. We are supposed to meet up with them at another concert in October. Anyways, lately Alec hasn't been texting me back. Like we had a great thing going and then BAM! it stopped. I will text him and no response at all. A week ago or so I had my friend text him and he texted her back but not me. So the other day, I found out he got a girlfriend. So I thought hey maybe the reason he hasn't been texting me back is because he has a girlfriend. And I'll be the first to admit we did flirt a bit. So maybe since he has a girlfriend he doesn't want that and I don't know. I know if I had gotten a boyfriend I'd still talk to him. So why do you think he hasn't texted me back?

I rarely say things that firmly, but duh, that's what it is.
It's okay if you thought you just flirted 'a bit'. He might have felt it was more, or that even 'a bit' was going too far and not fair to his new girlfriend, or to you. If the relationship is new for him, they are probably still figuring out what works for them and he is spending a lot of time only thinking about her.
Back off a bit. If you see Alec agian, strike up a more plutonic, less flirty, friendship, and he might come around and realize you could be just a cool friend to have. If you push right now, you'll just reinforce his idea that you aren't someone he should have contact with, either because he'll be afriad of leading you on and hurting you, or offending his girlfriend.
