AMEN BROTHER! straight teenage boys are confusing... they get all touchy and stuff when people are not around and seem clingy and want to be your best friend somethimes... but then other times they act as if your not even there and so that leaves you all... Huh?...

You are definately preaching to the choir on this one... lol... but i most definately know how you feel, because all last week my best friend trav (and crush) can't stop talking about how we are gonna spend all of this extended four day weekend together... and as of yesterday when he was supposed to call me back and let me know if he could come up or not... i haven't heard from him. So yeah... Blah...

I am kinda a hate with everything right now... and it is so depressing.

The next time you chat with him online, you can "tease" him by complaining that he didn't live up to his promises about the hug and going over to your place. Maybe he had a bad morning or something else happened ... you never know. Don't jump to conclusions either way until you have the chance to talk with him. It's amazing what a little communication between friends can do ... you don't have to "out" yourself to him or tell him you have a crush on him, but you can tell him that the way he acted hurt you, or made you feel like you're his friend only when it's convenient for him, or something like that.

And, in his mind, it's obviously okay for him to flirt with you (which is what he was doing -- how serious he was about it is debatable), so you should be able to playfully flirt with him, too. Give it a try ... nothing too serious, just a little teasing and flirting. You might be surprised.

So, anyway, don't get depressed yet. The Apocolypse has not arrived!
