Despite this, we really hit it off and laughed if I stumbled my words and helped me out when I was unsteady on my feet. The party got gatecrashed by a group of older boys who nobody knew, so the host (my bestfriend) and I left the main party to ask them to leave. When I returned, the boy had gone and I was upset because I had really enjoyed talking to him. I sent him a message on Facebook at about 2 asking if he was alright, and he replied he had decided to go home because the gatecrashers had tried to break into his car. We have had a long conversation on Facebook yesterday but now he hasn't replied to a message I sent at about 12 yesterday.. How do you think I can continue our conversation?I know this sounds petty but I can't get him off my mind and he is a really nice boy, that I would like to know better, how do you think I can approach him, without sounding needy?

The easiest way would be to send him another message (or call him if you have his number), and say that it was good to meet him at the party and sorry you didn’t get a chance to say good-bye. Why not say that, as you didn’t catch him at the end of the party and as you were a bit drunk, did he want to meet up for a drink or something at some point? Sign off with “up to you,” or something like that. This casual offer shows you’re interested, but you don’t look overly keen or needy. If he says no, at least you know where you stand. If he doesn’t bother answering, he’s not worth your time. But then he might just say yes, and you can see how it goes from there.
I wish you all the very best.
