I though it was love but after researching this up to reassure myself; turns out its just a deep attraction.I'm feeling disappointed because I thought my feelings were real. Looking back at all the intimate moments I feel ashamed of myself because I have wasted 2 and 1\2 years of my life. However, I still think this guy is drop dead gorgeous and I want him to be the father of my children( in the future!)because I feel a spiritual connection and chemistry with him. I still get butterflies like the first time I ever saw him.I've tried to get over him before but I felt like I was lying to myself and denying what we had. I've tried to be that independent person but I cant be because my world revolves around him (pathetic, I know!)I've stopped talking to him completely but this just haunts me in my sleep and everywhere I go( constantly dreaming about him). Its been like 8 months since I've talked to him.I don't really talk ABOUT him too, I actually avoid him altogether.I was resentful for quite a while.I know for a fact he feels the same way too. We pass each other staring at each other and I get that sinking feeling. We don't talk but he sends me so many signals! Hes always catching my eye even though I try to avoid eye contact( hehe I'm scared).He gives me all the body language attraction signals! IT SCARES ME but unfortunately I love his company! All I live on is the past when we couldn't keep our hands of each other, he was so affection. And still is, but he's scared to approach me because I tried to shrug him off.So after alot of thinking and consideration I decided to address this problem directly, I'm planning to talk to him but I dont know whether I should just leave it if its infatuation and wait for this condition to die or GO FOR IT?! I haven't got that long he's leaving school in weeks. This has been going on for too long and im exhausted! I'll probably never see him again so I don't want to live the rest of my regretting this.WHAT DO I DO??Please help me before its too late, many thanks! Reply to this Question

 I've been through something similar and I know it's impossible to go with the flow when everything you do revolves around someone special. It's so hard to let go.
Yes, I'd say it's infatuation but your feelings are still there and, despite your age, they're real. The infatuation part is wanting him to be the father of your children, etc, even though you're still young. It's the going over the top part of your emotions, but you can't help how you feel and I don't think avoiding the situation will solve the problem.
If your feelings are requited then I think you should go for it. You said you know for a fact that he feels the same way so what's there to lose? If it doesn't work out, then not to worry. Even if it fails, having faced the situation and your emotions head on allows you to think clearer and handle stuff better. Denying how you feel doesn't work, trust me!
Hope I helped and good luck!

 I honestly don't see the problem, could you try and describe it again? You like him, he likes you, you are crazy about each other... So where's the catch? You want true love and not just affection? True love can come with time. Besides, you are so young, you don't need to lock yourself down and hunt for "the one" just yet. Enjoy your crazy in love drop dead gorgeous guy. And then when you get older and find that he's not all that after all, then you can leave and look for something more.
I don't understand why you try and avoid this guy? You were happy with him, have spiritual connection as you said and everything?
Try and relax more and stop analyzing things to death. Enjoy life! Go with the flow and have fun! Don't lock yourself up in a room full of your thoughts and analyzing. Go out there and live life.
