Hullo.
So...there's this one guy I have liked since last year. We had a class together and sat together and stuff, and he's really sweet. But recently I've been homeschooled so I don't think he remembers me. Being the super [not] suave person I am *cough* awkward *cough* I saw his number in my friends phone while looking for the number to another friend. So she texted me his number and since I'm pathetic and a potato when it comes to boys, I texted him and it went something like this.
Me: uh, hi. I got your number in a mass text. Who's this? [complete lie just didn't wanna be outright with it]
Him: this is _____ who's this?
Me: oh hi! It's _____. I don't think you remember me but we had science together last year?
Him: oh. Hi. Ummmm.
Me: uh this got awkward.
Him: yeah. Did you get my number from Sarah? [a mutual friend]
Me: nope. I barely talk to her. Uh...should I delete your number?
Him: I don't care.
Me: k....so what's up?
I see that my text is read. We both have iPhones.
No response xD
I have no luck with dudes. I mean I've had one guy have a crush on me and he's younger than me. He's really sweet but he's not someone I see like that..lol.
So yep. Just wanted to say this.
Should I text him again like 'hey I'm bored what's up?' And see if he responds...?
Again I am a potato. Complete and utter.
i would recommend maybe just starting to talk to him at school, or whenever/wherever you see him. find out some things you guys have in common, so maybe your next conversation won't end so abruptly. or just keep talking to him, but let him text you first, so you know he's actually interested in talking to you.
Getting someone's number from someone else and then texting them isn't really a good idea most of the time. I understand the difficulty of actually talking to him and hanging out because of the homeschool thing, but personal interaction is the best way to go ESPECIALLY if you've never really talked to them before.
I'm a bit suspicious because of the fact that he agreed it got awkward, his short replies, the way he replied, and the fact that he asked who gave you his number. He also didn't say yes or no to if you should delete his number.
He either read your text and didn't want to respond, read your text and doesn't have time to respond, or read your text and forgot to respond.
BUT don't text him constantly and just saying "hey I'm bored" is usually something that annoys people.
HOWEVER, don't just wait for him to text first "so you know he's actually interested" because, I'm sorry, that's complete bull.

I am homeschooled now so I don't go to school at all, so no contact with him at all.
This was all around November, and he hasn't texted me once since. I'm pretty sure I freaked him out or something x3
Ooh, also. I have a lot of crushes since I'm hopeless haha.
There's this one guy I've known since we were very young and we were practically best friends.
I was suuuuuper kind as a child so I maybe kinda sorta tied him to a tree...? And left him in the rain xD
Before you guys are like 'why would you do that?!' I was dared by his best friend :p
Why I took the dare, I will never know.
So lately [at least when I was still in school with him] he avoids me. It was years ago, really. But I dunno. I reached out to him and stopped by his house once with my dogs on a walk to give him some money for his dad from my dad for something I dunno, and he answered the door. I was ridiculously awkward and I just sorta talked to him for a bit and actually apologized for all the times I sort of tried to kiss him when we were like, 8. 0///0
He was sort of in a rush [probably not though.] and was like 'k bye.' Haha.
So yep. I have his number but I've never texted him. .-.
I AM A GIANT POTATO.
That's all very awkward.
You probably shouldn't have brought up the kissing thing.
Most likely, if you tied him to a tree, left him there, and also tried to kiss him a lot (at least that's what I got from the "all the times" bit), he's a bit put off by that.... and honestly that awkwardness is probably why he's avoiding you.
And since you haven't talked in a while, he doesn't feel that close to you anymore.
