I know I've posted here a lot about my current relationship issues, but I just wanted to post this for advice on how to recover from these sorts of things and talk about our experiences together.

I'm 18F there was this 18M I was (and am still ugh) into, and he seemed extremely interested at first, until I realized I was always the only one making the first move, doing the first text, etc.

So I wanted us to hang out. The first week I asked him to hang, he tells me, "I don't know, I'll lyk how my week goes" and then he doesn't text at all.

So about a week goes by and then I ask again; this time being more specific about a certain place and being all, " I think it would be fun!" He seemed excited too and said he'd love to, but the same thing happened all over again. He just flaked and I didn't want to be the only one putting in effort so I waited for HIM to text.

I've still just been here waiting, even three days after we were "supposed" to hang out.

I honestly don't know what to do. My friends tell me I shouldn't text him unless he does so first, and that I should wait a while before getting back into contact with him.

I just want to be blunt with him, tell him I actually think he's cool and just want to get to know him more, but my friends don't suggest I flatter him since he's not making any moves.

I don't know what to do. It's hard to try and move on and feel better about myself right now.

It's hard to tell. When we first started talking things were all hot and heavy and now he's just gone. We've been good friends and I've known him for about over a year. I've been there for him, he's always appreciated me and now he's just gone.

Has anyone else ever felt like this? And can any men give me some good advice? Should I seriously just text him out of nowhere and confess?
