Dating, friendships and being very puzzled about all this!

i met dustin out one night we were like sole mates. i went shy and stopped talking. few months later met his friend out, david, he is 20 years older. ended up going to a football match with him, was stressing that all i want was friends, could tell that he really liked me. next week dustin was out, we got on famously, we had major eye contact. when we left he was shaking and we were stuck together. the next week i said to david that i would come out with them. he said he would ask dustin, but dustin said he wouldnt come out. david was coming to another football match with me, he asked if dustin could come. had a great time. came back to mine for a coffee, david said to me that him and dustin had been trying to sort dustins love life out, cos he had a queue. i kept talking but found it really had. could tell that dustin felt uncomfortable. a few weeks later i invited both of them out for a meal. could tell that dustin didnt want to come, at first he was very standoffish, but by the end of the night he was great. i decided to leave him alone. i kept seeing david, we were going to football matches. david kept mentioning dustin, but i just ignored what he said - i was confused. do you think that dustin did like me, but david had told him how he felt. dustin decided it was best to be friends but when he realised that i couldnt deal with that he decided to just leave me alone? also why does david keep mentioning dustin to me, it must be obvious that i dont want to talk to him. now dustin is seeing someone and it seems serious, dave has stopped mentioning his name. any help at all would be grateful. i feel very confused about the whole thing. thanks
