I like this guy. Obviously. We've been known each other for about a year, and we've been friends since the day we met. Over time we've grown quite close.
I've liked him as a crush since, oh, say, about a day or two after we met.
We don't go to school together. Two days ago was the first time we'd seen each other in person in about 10 months. We talk on instant messenger several times a week, though.
Sometimes when we IM he seems like he's having a lot of fun talking to me, but other times, though he laughs at my jokes, we can't really keep up a solid conversation.
We talk about casual things like school, what we like, and each other. Sometimes the subjects get a bit deeper like talking about who we like, and stuff like that. I don't think he knows I like him though.
When we saw each other at the bonfire two days ago, we instantly ran up and pretty much tackled each other in a hug. He laughed at all my jokes and we made small talk. We hugged, he met my friends, and he helped me up the hill when we all went to see the fireworks.
He didn't seem distant at all, he said he had a great time and wanted to know when the next one would be.
I IMed him the next day and he seemed a little more talkative, but still just a bit more reserved.
When I was telling him about my friends at my new school (most of whom were guys) and when we talked about candy grams, he mentioned a girl he has a crush on. He said he wanted to send her one, but he didn't know her classes so he couldn't. He didn't mention her name, but when I told him about my trenchcoat-wearing friend he said his crush wears a trenchcoat as well.
What I want to know, basically, is what I should do. I love him so much, but he likes some other girl. I still want to be friends with him, but knowing he doesn't love me makes me so unhappy when we're not together. Thanks to anyone who actually read this whole thing, and even more thanks to anyone who's kind enough to reply. I've never acted on my feelings before, and inviting him to group events (which he agreed to go to, the bonfire is just the only one that's worked out on my end ;__;)is the closest I've ever gotten. I'm just confused, please, help me!
