writes: Hello, I ran into a friend from college, that lives out of state. He stated he always had a crush on me and we went out. We both really liked eachother and started talking on the phone for a month. I never told him how much I liked him eventhough he told me several times. Then he came out here to visit his friend but wanted to see me. I gave him my schedule which later I realized I made it seem like I was to busy to see him, which he commented on and I ignored. I called him while he was out here and then two additional calls which he never answered. Should I give up on him or give another call and be honest about my feelings? What kind of message could I leave to get him to call me back?

If you were being coy before, your message should dispense with that up front. Tell him you didn't mean to come off as 'too busy', that you planned the weekend poorly, and that you regret not clearing time to see him. Use that as a segue to tell him all the things you'll do if he comes up again, or if you go and visit him. That should dispel any illusions he has about your disinterest.
