Being led on..?

[sensitiveguy123]

I'm just gonna get right into it.

I've been in love with one of my best friends ever since the school year started. I'm not sure if he's gay but I'm like 90% sure he is. He doesn't really care about what other people think but I feel like he just leads me on and just stops..

We never really hang out out of school, mostly because I don't live near him/our group of friends, but in school, it seems like sometimes he's going out of his way to be near me and other times he's going out of his way to not be near me. Like in one of my classes, most of the time he sits with me/our friends and other times he sits with people he never talks to and people that aren't even his friends..?

The last day of school, before Winter Break, he did the best thing IMO. I dunno if I overreacted or what but we spent the whole homeroom period sitting on the heater with his arm around me. Surprisingly, people didn't think much of it because we were just being casual and being normal, yet after that, it's almost as if he was trying to avoid me for the rest of the day.

All Winter Break, I've been texting him and starting conversations and he's like "we gotta hang out" yet he never takes the initiative of texting me, even to start a random conversation or asking me if I wanna do something. I actually feel like I'm annoying him since every day I text him and he hasn't started a conversation at all.

I don't know what to do. I feel like I'm being led on. Anyone have any advice for what I should do/say or why he might be acting like this?

By the way, we're in 10th grade, I'm 14, he's 15.

right, well i came out as gay this year and i was certain, utterly certain that this guy was leading me on, it seems you are reasonably sure, i just straight out asked him and he said he wasnt gay, gotta be honest i was disappointed, and for me the only way to find out is to talk to him about it, if you are out as gay/bi then ask him just ask him, if your not out as being gay/bi, why not tell him, and then if he is aswell *fireworks* if not your simply telling him because you feel your friendship is strong enough for you to tell him, thats my opinion anyway

hope it helps, it probably doesnt

I would talk to him about it, if you aren't sure if he is gay or not then you could just ask him why he'll be okay with you one minute and then the next he is avoiding you and how lately it seems like he hasn't been interested in starting conversation with you and see what he says, it could give you a better idea of whether or not he is leading you on.
