So, there’s this guy. We’ll call him K, and everyone thinks he likes me. He’s always by my side, we couple off together, we talk about everything, etc. I’ve been told that we look & act like a couple. They ask why were not dating, I tell them we’re just friends & he has a girlfriend. He’s been dating this girl, who we’ll call Sally, for 4yrs, & he’s given her a promise ring. She doesn’t like me, when we’re together in a group setting, it’s like K & I don’t know each other. We don’t sit together, talk, or even look at each other. She becomes extremely territorial of him, doesn’t let him out of her sight, glares at me, & is rude to me.
But, when Sally’s not around, he stands/sits right next to me, flirts, stares, his behavior changes completely.
We have class together, afterwards we always talk for an hour. Then he says he has to leave because Sally would be going to his house & it’ll be awkward if she got there & he wasn’t there. She would even skip class & spy on us while we talked, then call K & have him pick her up.
I talked to K one day about how people were questioning me why we weren’t dating, (I kept referring the two of us as just friends) while I talked his face turned red, & he began to sweat. He told me to just brush it off, then we didn’t speak to each other for 2 wks. He told a mutual friend of ours that he was giving me “space”. I guess he had decided that I had had enough space & started talking & hanging out with me like we had never been on that 2 wk hiatus. What do I do?
