He is younger than me by 4.5 years and we met in our theater classes a few months ago. He made me pay attention to him through the way he approached me and treated me. We soon became intimate but only friends. We had long lasting conversations and non-ending hugs as well when we met alone. We developped an incredible chemistry between us and he overpassed the touch-barrier. It was obvious that we had a crush on each other, it was more than social interest.
However, he wouldn't take the initiative to talk to me or prospose me a date or text me. He would wait to be asked by me for spending time together. He would never do something that would reveal disrespectful thoughts (I consider it would have something to do with the way he was raised and his family's realtion with religion).
It gets really on my nerves though, because it feels a lot like indifference; he is always surrounded by so many women and friends, so nice with everybody that it seems that he doeas not have the time to talk to me, unless I go towards him and speak to him.
I have stopped keeping in touch with him the last week and I am thinking of keeping this neutral and a little scornful attitude towards him. If he asks me what's wrong, I will explain that if he lets it fade away, I will let it too. If he does not, I am thinking of telling him on my own at a time he does not expect it. Besides, he has turned me off...
I tried to be concise and I am really looking forward to reading males' opinions and advice. Thank you!
