I have liked this guy for a long time and it's beginning to get me down, but I can't move on because he's on my course and in my friendship group. I don't know what to do, in an ideal world I would cut all ties with him but I don't see how this is possible.

When I hooked up with this other guy I only liked him as a friend, but yeah I guess it's just unfortunate it took me so long to realise that it was him I really liked all along, cheers though!

It seems you want him when you can't have him. However, I can tell you why he lost interest. You hooked up with another guy and he lost interest, that simple. Rather than playing him you played yourself in this situation. I can tell you from experience that getting with another guy to have another guy interested in you doesn't work.

when I left my girlfriend she hooked up with other guys and even suprised me bringing him to my house. Ironically what she thought would probably "win" me back, made me lose interest and made me think, "This girl is rebounding to get me jealous?? how sad.." My advise would be to tell him the truth because only you know whats up, and if he tells you he doesn't want to hook up than move on.

Could you talk to him about it? Maybe think about why you want to move on. You don't say whether he is an ex. If not, what have you got to lose.

No we're not going out, but I would like us to. We study together and have the same friends so spend a great deal of time together, which is making it hard for me to move on. He used to like me, then I got a boyfriend, then when we broke up we got together but he decided he wasn't ready, and now I just don't know whether to wait, or whether I'm wasting my time? I think he's worth waiting for, but I don't know whether he meant he'd be ready at some point, or whether he was just trying to let me down gently. Thanks!

Are you going out with him? do you just like him and want him to like you? on your course? and in your friendship group? can you explain a little more. I can't give you good answers with half assed information :D. questions from me to you would be, "does he have a girlfriend?" "Does he have interest in you?" "Why doo you want to be apart from him when you said, 'I liked this guy?'" "is it because you like him that its unbarable to be around him?" explain more hon.
