But you have always had the feeling he still likes you--even more so recently because he is:making lingering eye contactvery touchy feelyconfides in you about personal family stufftreats me differently to other girlsacts protectiveremembers little stuff I had told him when we were togetherand loads more stuff. Your mutual friends have also noticed it and then his friend you have never met before tells you he can't bear the thought of anyone else with you. You then tell said friend that you still have feelings for him aswell. But now the ex seems to be avoiding you for some reason, who happens to be a shy and private person.What would you make of this, if he has been acting this way and then doesn't contact you for a couple weeks after, could he be feeling awkward now he knows I feel for him too and not sure what to do next or something else. He was never very good at making the first move, I had to do it when we first went out. By reading the signs I have put on here about his behaviour towards me, do you think it sounds as if he still has feelings for me?please answer.thanks

I'm a guy and you've confused me!
It's strange that he is acting this way; especially seen as you have already been out with him; usually it is easier for "old flames" to re-kindle because of exactly that; there were once flames.
You could understand his shy behaviour if he hadn't been out with you, but it's bizarre that he has been out with you, yet still seems nervous and shy.
I should warn you that this part is me being a cynical b******, but maybe the "said friend" told this guy something different? It seems weird that it was after you told this "friend" your feelings that the guy started his hibernation!
Or maybe that has nothing to do with it, and he just generally is shy, but like I say I can't understand a man being shy towards a woman he was once with.
Personally, I think he still likes you...a man remembering little things that women say is a HUGE thing (it impresses my girlfriend anyway)....although so too are all the other things you list.
It's just going to have to be the "ask him yourself" answer...that's if he ever comes out of his hibernation ;-)
