So anyway we used to talk like all the time but all of a sudden he just stopped replying to my messages and starts hanging around with this girl, who he told me has a huge crush on him and told me she said his eyes are beautiful which we laughed about, even though he thinks she's creepy, so because we walk home together after school everyday, I teased him about it and he was like she's not my girlfriend even though they've kissed in front of our group of friends and asked me if I was jealous of her even though I'm not and then he stared at me for ages trying to work out from my expression if I was jealous or not, what the hell is his problem?

Hi there. He could have been talking to this other girl to see if he could make you jealous.
And if a guy does that, he is usually trying to see if you like him or not.
And jealousy would be a good indicator of that, for sure.
And so this is probably why he did it.
And he wouldn't do it, if he didn't like you.
And so the question now, is how do you feel about him?
Do you see him as boyfriend material?
If you do, let him see this - so he knows.
Otherwise, he will just go on trying to get a reaction from you.
I promise you, he is trying to see if he thinks you like him as much as he likes you.
To him, no reaction from you - not showing jealousy - could be interpreted by him, as you not being interested in him.
And in which case, he may no longer be interested in you, if he thinks you don't care.
And he might start being interested in someone else!
You might lose him.
Somehow, you need to show him.
He needs to know where he stands with you.
If you like being with him, show him you are happy to be in his company.
Be enthusiastic, when you are together.
Don't overdo it of course, because it will seem false.
Just be honest and be yourself.
