writes: There's this guy, he's 16 and so am I. We've flirted and hung out and stuff and people said he liked me. So like 3 months go by with nothing more than this, so my friend asks him what he thinks about me and this is how he replies: "this a a really difficult question but I will have to say I don't like her - because I don't want to keep her hanging." Then he goes on to say, "I like her as a friend and actually I do like a bit, but not enough to ask out". This guy told me once that he will like someone and then they like him and then he backs off and feels bad that he hurt them. He hasn't gone out with anyone in over a year (his last date cheated on him). Should I just give up on him or is there any hope he might eventually like me?

 Well I would say that the answer to that depends on whether he will overcome his insecurities and there isn't an awful lot you can do to that. It seems that on some level he is aware of this hence the remark about not wanting to keep you hanging on.
Rather than make an absolute descision either way maybe you can take a middle course. If you really like this guy and want to date him then keep going and reminding him in little ways how you feel but don't put all your eggs in one basket and keep your options open. Hope that helps.
