i've just met a former classmate of mine after so many years. we first met in facebook until he came back to our place for the summer and for the upcoming reunion of our batch. i can say that we were becoming closer than what we were during our student days. at first i was amazed by how he treat me now because i can't even recall a time before that we were close and then suddenly now he is acting like we were long lost buddies. after we met personally, i was kinda start to like him and the fact is we just had met for 2 days. i started feeling something for me when he hugged me and said that he misses me. he started to be sweet which i notice he really is sweet not just towards me but to our other friends as well. i can say to myself that i'm beginning to like like him and it puts me in an awkward position because i'm becoming conscious that he may notice something different in me. what shall i do? i'm really confused these days and there would be instances that we could meet more often because our reunion is fast approaching. i don't like this feeling because i know he don't feel the same way and he's only here for the summer.

You have to keep your emotion and try not to be noticed... I know how it feels, its like everything he does affects you.

you're right, it is as if i notice everything that he do. i'm really trying my best to hide it. he's kinda extra sweet to me than the rest but i just keep in mind that maybe he only sees me as a friend so that i wont expect anything.

I would suggest just geting to know him a bit more first. Exchange contact information and just keep in touch with him for a while. Maybe it's just an infatuation on your part, and you shouldn't rush into things just because he's ONLY here for the Summer (Oh No!). Take it slow, make sure you really like him, and that he likes you back, before making your move.

The thing is, you can't stop it. Just pretend you're not interested. Back in highschool i was always pretending to not like this girl. In gym class i always see her and she always greet me then talk to me. I always play coy about it. Guess i did it well cuz until now she doesn't know a thing about it.

Just waiting and think over what are your really thought, And well know about him, if he is marry or not , or what else, If you think you are match, then I suggested that you can tell him what is your feeling. Just see what will be to him..

You should determine first what you want. Do you want a relationship with him? If you do, then your time is running out because you said he will just be here for the summer. Work on it while he is still here and if you succeed, then work out the details of a long distance relationship. You do not have to tell him you like him, but you can show signs that you are interested. Once he gets the signs, let him make the next move. If not, then it is not meant to be. Good luck!

And why on the earth he is acting as you guys are long lost buddies?Are you sure he duuno feel anything for you.May be he is feeling same way.Dont run away.Be there and act sweetly and give him compliments and see how he reacts.Thats what i would do if i was you.It can be a golden chance to meet some one you want to be with. Dont draw conclusion yourself that he doesnt like you.Wait and see how things go forward.

Well try to keep it first. First, try to ask if he is already had someone (girlfriend) because you might affect their relationship. Don't expect to much, maybe he's just happy to see you and with your batch. Just wait and see, he should be the first one to move if he's really interested in you.

Don't easily send your self to your emotions as you've said it's only two days when you have met. Just be cool and try to pretend you got no feelings for him because if he know he might take advantage of the situation. Good luck!
