Why do guys act like JERKS around friends??
OK story:
Me and a guy used to hang out, we flirted a lot, and after some time I got feelings. We had a talk and it turned out he didn't want any relationship with me. He told me he just wants to be friends, nothing else.
Me: I got pissed off, because I felt he had been leading me on, and told him to bugger off.
He called me up and begged me to still be friends with him.
Officially we're now back to being just (platonic) friends.
But why is he acting like such an asshole??????
Everytime we are out with (my) friends, he talks and flirts with EVERYONE, even my best friend, except for me. He completely ignores me, last time he didn't even say hi or make eye contact with me.
Why would he do that? He is the one who wanted to be friends, so why is he being a jerk all of a sudden??
But then sometimes he can be nice and last time we went out, we had a "leaving party" for me (Im leaving the country, moving abroad for some time). When we said goodbye he hesitated at first, then give me a BIG hug, I was taken aback for a second.
Shed some light on this??? If he wants to be platonic friends, why can't he act like a friend then, why is he ignoring me at times?
