OK everyone

I was kinda seeing this guy in october last year, but ended in novemebr

I really liked him and have told him this

Anyway my point is every now and then i txt him 2 see if hes ok sometims i get a reply sometimes i dont

And sometimes he txts me saying random things then makes out its for someone else or he doesnt know who i am

Anyway i was a little tippsy on sat nite and i txt him cant remember what have no txt replys on phones

Nxt morning he replyed saying he was asleep and he was ok and asked if i was and we sent about 3 more txts after that

Since then ive heard nothing else

Now all my friends ive spoken 2 have said keep the contact going even if he doesnt reply

I want to do this but am now scared he may have a gf

Do anybody else think he could still be intrested in me a little or just even for me not even consider texting him again even tho i still like him

It-Jay agony auntI'm gonna answer you from experience.

Actually, i'm somehow in the guy's shoes. There is this girl that calls and texts me often but i consider hardly calling her as a polite way of saying "no". I can't tell her "i don't love you" cos i don't want to make her feel bad. I'll advice you to stop showing him interest unless he makes a positive move.

Common "he's not that into you" behaviour... he's NOT worth it honey! And you deserve SO much more!

Your girlfriends are dead wrong this time - sorry!

Tine agony auntI think maybe you should cool off with the texts for a while just to see if he has the deceny to text you first, and i mean a normal text like asking you how you are not one saying who is this?? because honey that is kind of lame..

You don't need to chase after someone like this infact he should be the one to chase after you.. Personally what i would do is write down his number on a piece of paper and then put it away in a drawer or something out of the road. Then delete his number out of your phone, then when you have a few drinks you won't be tempted to drunken text him. Also this will allow you to kind of forget about him for a while and let him text you first.

Yes, I agree. If your friends want you to look like the crazy/clingy chick from months ago that still won't go away, then yeah keep persistently texting him.

It sounds to me like the responds to you because he's not a jerk and is trying to be polite. I hate this phrase since it's so overused, but I think that, "He's just not that into you." You need to know that if a guy wants you, likes you, or wants to talk to you; he'll contact you. Time to move on and don't text him anymore.

Laura1318 agony auntIt depends on what kind of text you will be sending him.Not those general and standard questions about how are you , how's the weather etc.

Be specific about what you want to ask him. Make it interesting so that he will want to reply you. You can also

ask him whether he has a g/for not?

The point is not whether he is interested in you or not but whether you want to try to make something out of nothing.

Do you dare to try your luck?

He may not have the interest from what you have posted but nobody knows what is in his heart. You could make that spark and try to spark until there is a fire .

Would you try to spark a fire in his heart or would you just listen to someone and then give up .

Are you a born loser or a defeatist ?

Is it better to try than not to try at all? That is your choice.

People's perceptions are not always right. It is only their views.

Your friends have given you poor advice on this occasion. He's not interested in you other than a friend. If he really liked you, you would know it because he would reply. Pull back from him.
