So I met this guy back in November. He goes to my university and he’s the sweetest, nicest guy… and just my type. Needless to say, I started liking him pretty quick. After about a month I found out he had a girlfriend and I was all kinds of bummed. I’m the type of girl that doesn’t tell guys I like them and usually keep my feelings to myself. So when I found out he had a girlfriend, I was sad, but I didn’t act any differently. For the last seven months we have become really close and he’s become one of my best friends. He still flirts with me, asks me what I’m doing wants to watch movies with me, let’s me sleep over (in a different bunk, no worries), but it’s always been innocent flirting. I’d always been so torn, thinking that he doesn’t like me because he has a girlfriend, and yet he always acted like it. I come to find out about four days ago that he and his girlfriend back home are breaking up eventually. She’s going to school out of state and they decided that they didn’t want to do long-distance. What threw me off, besides being absolutely ecstatic, was that he seemed completely fine with it. Not sad at all. They’d been dating for over a year, but after their discussion, he wasn’t even phased by it. Now everything’s different, though they’re still dating now, their break-up is eminent. I’m wondering if it’s okay to start flirting a little harder? Maybe try cuddling up next to him? I obviously won’t try anything else (I don’t make first moves), but I feel like he does have some sort of feelings for me or else he wouldn’t spend every waking moment with me, pay for my food, ask me to watch movies, and let me spend the night in his room. Jeepers I’m just so confused.
