So I dated this guy for 2 months. It wasn't long but it was a confusing whirlwind that ultimately lead us both to going our both ways. I didn't think it hurt as much as it did. He wasn't the best boyfriend, but I regret confronting him about it. I should have let him do his thing and just rolled with it instead of trying to change him. We would still be together if I did. So anyways, ever since the breakup he has been flirting. I have caught him staring at me and his friends till me he still talks about me. He still flirts playfully with me and smiles at me. I shouldn't want him back but I do. His friend, who has a crush on me, tells me everything from him saying he wants me back and him trying to get with other girls. My friend who is close with him said he has spoken about how his feelings haven't changed. We also had to close dance a number of times for a school activity and the first time we did he flirted super hard. The other times we didn't talk much. So I asked my friend who is really close to tell him I still have feelings.. He came up to me and said "I don't like you". It made me sad; but then he hugged me. Full on, open arms, hug. I know he likes these 2 girls. Ever since then he's said hi and talked to me uncomfortably and briefly. My friend said she caught him smiling and checking me out during math. he said he doesn't like me, but then wouldn't he stop flirting? If he didn't like these other girls, would he want me back? I'm so confused. I told him we should try to be friends still and he said "Oh" and touched my arm.
