Sorry, I know I am probably beating this to death, but I am absolutely heartsick over the whole situation, and now it's my fault.
In the past year I have made an extremely good friend. We go to University together, and we clicked almost immediately. I saw him every day during school, and on the days I didn't he would call or show up with some silly excuse. I genuinely enjoy his company, and he has been nothing but kind and...SAFE for lack of a better word. He makes me so happy.
He and his girl have been having a rough time of it for a little while, and I've been keeping my distance. But when he mentioned another girl, not his girlfriend but someone he was interested in, I was afraid of missing my chance. I emailed him and told him (lightly) how I felt.
It's been over a week and he hasn't answered.
What could he have taken offense to? Guys, could you see letting a good friendship with low expectations drop for this reason? Would you take this long to respond? Or would you see it as acceptable to leave her hanging if you didn't like her...?

If he isn't responding, he probably doesn't think of you in "that way". It sux, but a lot of guys just stop communicating rather than confront or talking straight on.

Well I heard from him today...nothing except a promise to call. I guess I'll figure it out then. Sigh....

He called this morning and acted like nothing was different. Same pet names, back to how it was before.
=/
I am so confused.

He doesnt see you in that way, but he doesnt want to lose your friendship so is attempting to make things go back to the way they were ie. good friends.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Ask him in person. Be prepared to get a negative answer, and decide in advance if you can go back to being just friends.

No, she has made her feelings known, there is no need to say them in person- that will just make things awkward. If he reciprocated he wouldve said so.
