The guy I like is giving mixed signals. Should I stop initiating contact all together? Am I being needy? Is this a lost cause?

We have been friends for an year. At first he was very flirty and would say how I was his type and he wanted a collage of my pictures on his birthday etc. I was 100% he was into me. Soon I developed feelings and confessed to him. He turned me down saying that he found monogamy stifling and he kinda loved some other girl so he wouldn't be dating for a while. I was cool and calm about getting rejected. He still flirts with me a lot, cares for me a lot and wanted to hang out soon. But however he has stopped initiating conversations. He says he is too lazy to text and that I should text him whenever I feel like. But I on the other hand feel awkward about it. I initiate and he responds very enthusiastically writing a wall of texts. He is very aware that I like him and teases me about it. I have no idea what he is up-to. After he stood me up for hanging out, he begged for another chance and said he would hit me up when he is free so we can go out. Should I stop talking for a while and see if he is really into me? Why flirt when he rejected me?

aunt honesty agony auntNo he is not in to you at all. He likes the flirting because it boosts his ego, he is using your feelings to make himself feel better. My advice would be to steer clear, unless you want to end up feeling hurt and rejected.

First of all he is full of himself,because he is so sure that you are into so much,and takes advantages of your feelings hurtful or otherwise.On his part maybe he does not know what he wants,but this does not give him the right to hurt you.If a man wants to contact a woman he will ,so there is no point in contacting him.Would you consider a Fresh start.meeting friends,joining groups.Plus meeting a guy who will love and respect.Best wishes NORA B.

Denizen agony auntHe is not that into you. Sorry, but if he were he would be running through barbed wire and vaulting high walls to be in your company. He can be a friend, but he doesn't care enough to be your partner.
