However he's really nice, he would never make fun of me. We didn't chat for some time and when we had a conversation about our feelings, he said he doesn't want to hurt me and just wants to be my friend. He also told me he hasn't texted me so that I can forget about him. When I see him, I don't stop to say hi because I feel uneasy. He said: next time you see me, don't hide. I am really confused.. I don't know what to do.

Hello there, sometimes it's not easy to accept what someone else say, especially if we like them a lot. This boy has told you honestly that he only wants to be friends; if you feel able to be just friends, then you should accept his offer. When he says he does not want to hurt you, he is actually saying I do not have romantic feelings for you therefore do not hope for more than friendship. He obviously likes you as he does not want to cease all contact. I think you accept this situation. Unrequited love is a complete waste of time and energy, be happy to have a good male friend and keep you heart open for someone who can reciprocate your feelings. Good luck! Pru

This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.
