What does he think????? (I need help) PLEASE!?

There is this guy who I used to flirt with a lot, who I liked, and I'm almost positive that he used to like me.


He asked me to prom last week (over a week before the prom) with flowers and a sweet card.





However, I know that he looked up the meanings of different flowers, and he gave me yellow ones.





My friends kept saying that he still likes me, but I'm not sure. He doesn't just ask people out, he is thoughtful, but now he barely speaks to me anymore. His friends say he is kind of protective of me when they are with him, and they say he goes out of his way to be nice to me, but I haven't spoken face to face with him in a few days (We go to a really small school, so thats hard to do) I do, however frequently talk to him on IM





We always have these long conversations on IM, and last time we talked, we both told each other how much we relied on the other one to get us through the school day, but he just doesn't talk to me at all anymore. Does he like me anymore?

i think he likes you, its probably just awkward for him. Guys are weird creatures. He opened himself up when he asked you to go to prom, now he's just taking a step back from moving too fast. Guys are serial back-away-ers. If he thinks you're jumping to emotions, he's going to back up until he gets to test the waters, but SLOWLY. I think things will be fine. You can always teasingly im him "our prom date didnt scare you off did it:)?" Youll be fine
Reply:He likes you. He's just not quite sure how to handle himself now when he is face to face with you, so he is avoiding that. IMing is a secure way for him to communicate and not risk blowing anything before prom. He is probably very worried about making prom night perfect and is holding back to make that night even more special.
Reply:I'm guessing he's having some second thoughts somewhere, or just needs some space. Go out of your way to talk to him, to strengthen your bond. I'm 95% sure he still likes you, but might feel odd if he has to start all your conversations together.
Reply:Ya, he is just trying to be less clingy and he wants you to come to him because he wants to see if you really like him. He still likes you, dont worry.
