he has feelings for me but I dont but I really don't know what's going on
Question Posted Thursday February 17 2011, 12:37 am
So I've known this guy lets call him Matt ever since 6th grade. We weren't friends but we grew up together in the beginning. So we ended up being friends. And we actually started becoming friends when we were seniors in high school. It's kind of sad I know. Now that we graduated we have become closer friends and we go to the same college as well. But ever since that, when I got a boyfriend and he's just been acting like a smart ass. I didn't want to tell him because he has a big mouth and I only tell my girlfriends. He's not my best friend. And I don't talk about my personal life to him or at all about guys I like because me and Matt are just really good friends but we never talk about love. He's had a crush on me in high school. He even wanted to ask me out because he told me. But I get a lot of guys so he eventually gave up. I only like him as a friend though and nothing else. He has feelings for me but I don't have feelings for him. He's never really dated anyone he's been single for many years. I've actually been in a lot of relationships. But one time when it was me and my boyfriend's anniversary. My car battery died. And my boyfriend didn't know how to fix it. So I called Matt over to help since he's really good with cars. And nothing went wrong after that. I didn't notice anything wrong. But he sent a really rude comment on facebook when I got home about my boyfriend. It really pissed me off and I said STOP IT. And he didn't so I deleted him on facebook and I was really really mad. Because that was just really immature and rude to say. Then he talked to one of my girlfriends about it. And he's like I don't know if I want to be friends with her anymore. I thought Matt was joking because he's needy and he talks to me all the time I didn't know how he could live without me and we've known each other for so long.
Then it finally happens he doesn't talk to me for 4 months!!!!!!!!!! I don't know why???? I was really shocked. And I really missed him as a friend. I was just really mad too. I missed having him in my life because he would always annoy me through texting and talk to me a lot I wasn't used to him not talking to me everyday. Then today he sends me a message on facebook after 4 months and says like "I dont know if I'll give you a third chance in being your friend but this is it...and whats up." He said it in a weird way.
Can someone help? I really only like him as a friend. But I don't know why he ignored me for 4 months!!!! And then embarassed me on facebook? And then talked to my girlfriend about me. And he still talked to my girlfriend and not me. What's going on?

seem like you talked to him about it. If you say that he is that important to you then talk to him ask him why he didn't talk to you for that long. My best bet is because he was hurt and needed time to stay away from you for a little while...don't take it personal it's not your fault things like that need to happen sometimes. So yeah he stopped talking to you for 4 months and you say you missed talking to him...well all you have to do is talk to him and have him explain himself to you and you do the same for him. Take his feelings into consideration and tell him that he is a really good friend of yours and it would suck if one day you guys would really stop talking. By the way I went through something like that and I lost are really good friend of mine and I see him around school and we don't talk at all we don't even say Hi to each other. Trust this talk can help strangthen your friendship a little more. Hope I helped you with you with your question.o_- [ Kaye2918's advice column | Ask Kaye2918 A Question ]

Mostly likely your friend felt emotions that lowered him and he felt you were the source of this so he attempted to put you down in order to bring himself back up. Note how he said I don't know if I'm going to give you a chance in being your friend, as if he is the prize. [ Capic's advice column | Ask Capic A Question ]
