I have this guy friend whom I was infatuated with maybe even in love with. I always resisted though cause of so much drama. I will explain if you want me too. It's just a lot of drama, but one of them was the fact that he kept pulling disappearing acts on me, and then he would reappear in my life and act like he's my boyfriend and act like he is so in love with me, and declared his love for me, then I wouldn't reciprocate and then he would disappear and I wouldn't hear from him from weeks to months at a time. It was the same repeated cycle, and I never had sex with him. Well I just came to the point in my life, that I should just cut him out instead of having this in and out, flip flopping, behavior in my life, even though I don't want to let go, I am forcing myself to let go, cause I really do care about him.


Well 2 months have passed haven't heard or seen him. Out of the blue he calls my dad to see if he has any work for him to do on his day off, (he used to work for my dad's construction company but now he is working with a landscaping company) Anyways, my dad says "Let me call you back. Ashley is with me and she has to drive me to pickup material" Then my dad calls him back and he says "Yeah I texted Ryan (my brother) a pic of this hot girl i'm going out with. She's really hot" First of all, why would he text my brother pics of this "hot girl" when he is not even close with my brother? He worked with him a couple of times, but he is not super close to him and he texted him that out of the blue. Also why would he mention it to my dad? I noticed it was on the second call he mentioned this girl. Another point is he has a good job with a great pay and he doesn't have high expenses and he works full time, so why wouldn't he want to enjoy the day off? I work full time and go to college so I cherish my days off! lol. I am despising him more after this, but I am more curious about the behavior than him. Is he trying to make me jealous? If so what is he trying to prove or what is he trying to accomplish? What does this sound like to you? I am still sticking to my guns to cutting him out of my life, I just want to know more about guys that play this jealousy game is all. But just give me your opinion on it! Thank you so much! Please no bashing!

Games. Pretend it never happened. Who talks like that to an ex-gf's dad, anyway? It's not normal. It shows bizarrely bad judgment. It sounds like he's ticked that you dropped him, as if it wasn't his fault, and now he's trying to prove something.

You've moved on. Stay moved on.

I'm not jealous, I'm curious about the behavior and why he would do that.

I'm sorry I didn't specify. No, we never dated nor did we ever had sex. He is just a platonic friend, that I knew for quite some time, but seems to be pulling in some head games lol. Sorry for that, but thank you so much for your input!

No, he's not a platonic friend. Platonic friends don't do this:

So, it sounds like he was into you. You didn't reciprocate. He went off feeling rejected. So now, he's fighting back. You made him feel like a loser, so now he's proving he's not a loser. Simple.

You don't despise him. The opposite of love isn't hate...it's indifference.
