I am not a teen but I was at one time. And whenever I liked a guy back then and he didn't call back nor respond...I took that as a"he's not that into me' signal and I moved on. You gave this guy 2 weeks to contact you, you wrote him an text message, telling him you liked him. He didn't respond. You are feeling embarrassed. Don't be. Never feel ashamed for taking a risk and being honest with your feelings. Don't contact him anymore and let it go. The best thing you can do now, hun? . Get out there and date other people. Have fun and enjoy being a happy 16 year old girl. Dating can help to build self-esteem, can help teens figure out who they are and can teach social skills so I view dating as a form of shopping around, especially at your age. It's does not necessarily become 'exclusivity'. I want to encourage abstinence because if you are dating for fun, a sad fact of nature is that sexual intimacy creates emotional intimacy: even if the parties to the relationship say "it’s just for fun." In reality, it isn’t. Each romantic relationship takes something from a person’s heart, and each relationship broken, leaves a scar. All teenagers can get hurt, but this seems more predominant with teen girls. So I suggest you enjoy the company of interested boys, but always stay real keep your self-respect and be true and honest. Understand any type of healthy relationship, including friendships, are based on trust, respect and caring not to cause pain to others. Being able to identify and be in healthy dating relationships is a very important skill for young people to learn. It sest the groundwork for more serious relationships when you move into adulthood. So..Date, have fun...just keep using your head and be a strong girl.

flower girl agony auntHe could be shy or he might not have any credit to text you back and you should not be embarrased about telling him if you like someone you just have to go for it even if they don't feel the same as many people have not got the balls to do it and they could miss out on a great relationship give him a coulple of days if he likes you he will let you know.

Take care.xx.

ladybug agony auntbelieve it or not ive been in the same exact situation, but guest what? ive came up with a nice realization! it is obvious that this guy was not interested in you so why deal with it? if you're problem is you're embarrassed coz you told him about you're feelings, then who cares? you have the right to do so coz we are all free to express it. Forget about him, you deserve a better one, besides, it's only infatuation.
