Pretend you don't care he's ignoring you, and stop all communication with him (but it's essential that you act cool, as if you were having a good time and he was the last thing on your mind :D). He's probably done the famous "switch": first they're all over you: they're the ones texting, calling, or e-mailing YOU... but when you start to show some interest (as in, you are the one texting first and stuff), then they withdraw, start to ignore you, and all that B.S.. Someone told me once men are like toddlers: chase them, and they'll run away. Ignore them, and they'll come begging for attention ;). The best thing you can do is smile, hold your head high, and move on. Ignoring him back and acting as if you didn't care would be the best punch in the nuts you could give to his pride, and that will also give you your dignity back. :) The guy sounds like a real jerk, BTW. And for the future: there are plenty of fish in the sea, and if you want to catch a big one, the best bait is confidence and self-respect ;) Don't ever be the one doing the chasing! That hardly ever works, and you want someone who will work for your affection and show you what you're worth. Good luck!

I'm going to post my experience about this sort of thing, so you can see where I'm coming from and then I will say what I think about yours.

I met a friend of a friend at Uni who lived on the other side of the UK. We got along fantastically on this night out, kissed and swapped numbers. For the next two weeks we text and phoned each other constantly, literally, any spare minute we had! Even sexting etc. I was really into him, and I thought, he was really into me. After two weeks of knowing him, he even came up to Uni to surprise me! Also to see his friend of course, but we spent the night together, had a lovely evening, had sex....and then he left early the next morning and I never saw him again. I think I got about one text out of him after that, just saying that he'd call me, and that was it. It took me a while to get over it, because, although it was such a short time span, it felt like we knew each other really well. I knew afterwards he just wanted sex, and he did pretty much everything in his power to get it.

So down to your situation. I know it's completely different, but here is how I see it - if he doesn't treat you the way you expect to be treated when he sees you, then he's not worth it. After seven months of texting and facebooking, I wouldn't expect him to be shy about seeing you, although there is always that possibility. I would try and forget about him, ignore him when you see him and just treat him the way he has treated you. See if he likes it and if he doesn't, then that's his problem!

Us girls need to learn to build thicker skins I'm afraid, because we just get used over and over again. Be thankful it's happened now and not later when you've become more attached and vulnerable to him.

But I'm very cynical.

I agree with Nessa. Take her advice. What I would like to add is that I was friends with a guy for a really long time and I really cared about him and he just led me on. It took me years to finally realize that I really couldn't be friends with him. Don't make the same mistake as me. You are already on the right track in realizing that he was just messing with you, and if he's not going to be straight with you than he's not worth your time. And don't feel like a fool, you were just being true to your feelings, the best you can do is recognize that, learn from the experience and move forward. Everyone makes mistakes, so don't beat yourself up about it. :)

I have been going through a similar experience. I reconnected with an old friend whom I hadn't seen in 15 years back in late October 2010. Things started off just hanging out, but then we started dating - he seemed really into me. So, I started to let my feelings get involved. Well, I went away for a week on a trip that I had told him about when we first started talking again, and when I came back, we spoke a few times and then that was it. No goodbye or any sort of explanation - he just dropped me like that (we had been dating about 2 months)! I never thought he could do that to me as we were best friends when we were kids! Even though I feel like I may have been played from the beginning, a couple of my guy friends say that they don't know any guys that are intentionally that mean.

It's been about a month since I've actually talked to him and his birthday was on Friday - a day I I had originally planned to spend with him. I'm still not over it, however, it gets better everyday. Against many peoples' advice, he is still a facebook friend, which makes it a bit more hard. But, I feel like I have gone back to my old self and post the things that I'm doing, which in my head, lets him know that I am getting on w/my life (even if it's something I'm still trying to do). I guess I'm just hoping that one day we can be friends again or maybe I'll even get an answer as to what happened.

So, I guess all I can say is that I understand where you are coming from and you are not alone out there! My best advice would be to stay as busy as you can and lean on your friends for support. I really don't know what I would have done w/o my friends' support through this. It will take time, but you will get over this guy, as I know I will too. The other thing to keep in mind is that it isn't you, it's them! They are cowards for not just telling us. Don't blame yourself....the only thing you did was show your feelings for him and it just shows that he isn't the right one for you b/c the right one will want to show his feelings for you too and won't be too scared to do so!

Thank you Nessa for your advice! And sorry if this is too long!

I completly know how you feel, believe it or not this situation has probably happened to at least 80% of girls out there so don't think your alone!
i was in this exact situation, i met a guy and didnt think he would EVER even think about getting with me and what do you know, two weeks straight of him contantly texting sexting and ringing me, until i stupidly started to like him, thinking i had a chance. We had sex and that was it, he ignored me deliberatly flirted with girls in front of me and didnt even tell me what had happened. I was sooo upset for weeks i hated him i hated myself for being so stupid and i was sick of thinking about him all the time. In the end one of my friends told me something that really helped. She told me to treat him as he treated me, or even better not even give him a seconds thought! i started looking at other guys just to get him off my mind and it really worked i completle forgot all about him. Funnily enough he started texting me again right after i did all this saying hed like to carry on where we left off. And rightly so i told him to grow a pair and fuck off!
you just need to realise that no way this guy is good enough for you, way too immature and just not good enough for you to waste your time thinking about him any longer. It will be hard at first but in the end you end up winning :)
