writes:So to make a long story short, a guy from my school was very interested in me, but I have feelings for one of his friends.One day I was talking to the friend, and he basically told me that he finds me attractive but that he felt we couldn't act on anything because he knows this other guy likes me. I told him I didn't feel that way about the other guy, and he made it sound like maybe there could the something in the future for us, but that he couldn't do anything while his friend liked me.Now its been a month since I let the other guy know that I didn't have romantic feelings for him. Yet in all that time, the guy I really like has made no effort to text me or reach out to me. Recently I started talking to him when I see him at school, and texting him occasionally. He is really nice to me in person and always responds to my texts, but he never makes the effort to text me first or keep the text conversation going.My question is, is he acting this way because he thinks he still needs to avoid me because of his friend liking me? Or has he really just changed his mind and has no interest anymore? And should I continue to try and talk to him? Please help:)

Hi there. This guy you like either doesn't really know how you feel about him, or, he is a little shy about approaching girls that he likes.
And this is entirely possible.
He knows his friend likes you also, and so is waiting until the coast is clear and he believes he has a real chance.
He could also be wondering if his friend might ask you out first, before he even gets a chance.
So my guess, is that he is being super cautious in the meantime, until he feels the time is right to make a move.
So only time will tell.
