Hi, I am currently in high school, and I have this guy friend who will always text/snapchat me first, but he never talks to me in person, and it really makes me upset. It's not like I have a crush on him or anything, but I see him talk to other girls all the time. Does he just not like me as a friend or what? Lol.. I'm so confused.

So we can rule out shyness/social anxiety.
Do you have girlfriends that are friends only in text/on line, but never spend time together in person? Never talking face to face?
If you do, that is not the way to go about having any kind of relationship, even girlfriends.
I am betting you spend time face to face with girlfriends.
Well, you'll only have a Real friendship with this guy if it goes beyond the computer to real life.
Either he is not interested in you for a friend or more...or the reason he does talk to you in person and does with others is because of the fact he is crushing on you and very interested and because you are the object of his attention, he can't focus and feels cloudy headed, tongue tied and draws a blank for convo when even contemplating talking to you in person. Think of yourself, isn't it easier to talk to guys you dont have a crush on....of course..thats the way it goes.
So if you want to talk in person, don't wait for him to do it, go up to him. Since you already text and snap chat, if you like him, just walk up to him and say Hi and smile. Then tell him you enjoy your time together on line but you'd really prefer to hang out together as friends in person instead. See what he has to say. That may give you some clue. If you are not attracted to him romantically and he is to you, it's not fair to him to pursue him as a friend and you may want to let idea's of friendship with him just drop.
