writes: I have a situation. At the beginning of the school year I met this new guy at school. We clicked right away and would flirt in every class we had together, walk everywhere together, very touchy feely type of situation with the long hugs etc. Also we are both athletes and train at the same location and we would 'accidentally' bump into each other. He even waited an hour for me outside our training site just so we could talk for 30 minutes!I knew he wanted to go out because I heard his friends speaking of it but he never asked me out. A friend of his asked me if I liked him but I never gave a straight up answer because I didn't want a friend to put us together. About a week after that, he asked out his ex-girlfriend. That crushed me but what gave me hope is that he hesitated to actually do it (he made her friend give her a warning beforehand but waiting a couple of weeks to actually ask her out).I know I have to get over him but every time he does something sweet it makes me fall for him again. In the past week my one friend at school that knows his girlfriend was gone for the week and he acted as if we were dating. When she came back, he backed off.He's been making me fall for him over and over again for 8 months. What can I do to get over him? Why does he do that? help!

 You are both treading softly and as such will probably never know how the other feels.Go and grab him and stick your tongue down his throat, metaphorically of course ;-) judge his response by the bulge in his trousers.Seriously though, be more confident in yourself. Tell him how you feel, he's not a mind reader. You're both young and at some point will realise what you want and go for it.

This boy obviously had feelings for you, but it seems your reluctance to answer with how you felt for him has confused him as much as it has you!This boy may be going out with the other girl to make you feel guilty because he still likes you, in an attempt to make you want him so he can try again, in which case his flirting would be an addition to the 'making you want him' thing. Other than this, your not-so-straight-up-answer may have deterred him from you and this flirting is simply cruelty on his part. My advice is that you find time to talk to him alone and ask him straight-out what's going on, maybe even threatening to tell his girlfriend what he was up to while she was away.
