Do you think he is into me?

There is this guy I have a huge crush on. We go to different schools in different states but we are from the same town. We haven't hung out in years. We text and snap chat every now and then and like each others Instagram pictures. I haven't heard from him in like 2 weeks then on Thanksgiving he liked my instagram picture and so that night I texted him and said happy thanksgiving. He did not respond until the morning and he said thanks you too! :) I said thank you :) he continued on the conversation asking how I was I and I asked him about school stuff. Then few more days go by then I receive a snap chat from him and its of his class ring and he said y baby with the kiss emoji. I said well your baby looks nice :) then he didn't answer. Then 2 days later he snap chats me again saying my man and its of him and one of his friends. I said looks like you're having fun :) he said I try with a kiss emoji. I sent a snap chat back and said I'm happy for you with a kiss emoji back and he didn't respond. Now last night I snap chatted him saying can you study all of this for me? It was a bunch of papers I had to study for my exam. He snap chatted me back just of himself looking away (like he's thinking about it). Then I said where are you going all dressed up? :) he said this is my uniform. I said well you look very handsome :) he said thank you kayla with a kiss emoji I said you're always welcome with a kiss emoji and smiley face. Then he didn't respond. I don't know what to think.

Update:

Okay I understand why a couple of you think he is not interested, but this guy is very sweet. He goes to a military college which can be the reason to behind why he may not be answering because he is very busy. Also, he is a senior graduating in May. We also have not hung out yet because he goes to a school far away. I am thinking he is contacting me a little because he might not be sure what he wants to do yet and maybe because he isn't sure what I want and does not want to pressure anything.

Update 2:

I am also just going to go with the flow and keep in touch with him, but not smother him. It is christmas break, so hopefully he will ask to hang out sometime soon.

Update 3:

Okay, here is an update. since I posted this I did not contact him I wanted to give him space. I stopped texting him first and I also stopped snap chatting him first and I stopped liking his pictures. Since I stopped he is the one to snap chat me and text me first. One text conversation he did not answer for 3 hours because he was studying and when he finally responded he said Im sorry I just got busy! He texted me merry christmas and stuff. It appears when I don't contact him, he contacts me.

Update 4:

This is very strange to say, but I kind of know when he is going to contact me. I get a weird feeling that he is going to contact me and he does, I can't explain it. Just thought it was weird and thought I'd share.

    If only people would use this age old tool called..................."TALKING"!!!

    You two are emoji-ing the crap out of what could be a good relationship. Emojies "should" express how one feels, but they can also be used to mislead (whether intentional or not) others so that they won't feel bad.

    This electronic way of conducting emotions is one of the things that has put relationships to an all time high for failure and for some reason people keep Facebooking, Instagramming, texting, and/or emailing the heck out of each other when there's this thing attached to that gadget called...................."A PHONE" where, when used, you can actually HEAR his emotion than have to play the game of interpretation like you are doing right now.

    Take the text and wait game out of your situation and be more direct. Sit and talk more (colorful conversation) and leave the electronics to more black and white (direct) conversation. You'll get much better results and won't have to result to yet another electronic forum to ask the world what is going on with your relationship. I'm just saying.....

    Currently you're in the Text Friends -- scratch that -- Text **Acquaintances** zone. It's ok temporarily, but if you don't find a way to turn his head, you'll never get out of that zone.

    Understand, long distance relationships are difficult enough between people who are already in a committed relationship. He probably realizes that, at least at this point in your lives, there's no real chance for you guys, unless something changes.

    I know you like him, but honestly? I would just try to get to the Text Friends stage, and let him be a best buddy who advises you on guys. No matter how hot he is, he's STILL a ways' off, which is too vulnerable for a new relationship.

    I don't say cut him off; I say, have fun, but find someone who lives closer.

    I'm really sorry that this sounds so negative. I typically try to encourage people, but in this case, I don't want to see you hurt.

    Have you and him been chatting and texting for YEARS? I do think he likes you a lot but whether it is more than that is hard to say, so why don't you be truthful to him and tell him that you've cared for him for a long time and it seems to me that you may feel the same way. If you don't, we have to stop this or I am going to get hurt BIG TIME. I know, young people are afraid to lay it all on the line, they don't want to look like a fool but if you don't you may miss out on the greatest thing that could happen to you, he might be the one who would love you for the rest of your life and if he doesn't, you would get over the embarrassment but you'll probably always wonder what might have been if you had.

    Why dont you just ask him? Tell him how you feel or better yet call him & voice how you feel. If he's into you a lot; then he won't forget you. He would find ways to contact you like he has in the past. Try hanging out with him in person & see how his actions are towards you. The only way you will know is by trying. It would surely end all this confusion. Also ask if he is looking for a relationship or if he is seeing anyone. That way you won't be wasting your time. I hope you get him tho =).

    It works both ways sometimes people stare cause they are curious about what they may have heard about you, stare for something to do in school, or stare cause they think you're attractive. Eye's are the key to the soul. No big deal, if someone, a man were to look at me that way, I only have eyes for my husband so I wouldn't notice nor pay attention. All depends on age. Pay no mind to it seriously but don't stare back.

    Also if he's in Military Academy he's not waiting to see what you're going to do, he's already picked what he wants to do out of life which would be aa military officer w/ his career. He won't wait on you. What is shocking is you asking him to look at all your work while he's got his own US Naval Academy, Air Force Academy, West Point of US Coast Guard Military but he's going in as an Officer so he's set, don't allow yourself o be all cute on text. What happened to the lost art of writing letters. I bet he'd appreciate that much more and less flirting via telecommunications. Hope that helps you. He appears to take his future seriously and maybe wants that in you. If he truly loves you but, not likely 's just waiting to finish and move on w/ his career. My son worked really hard in college and went as far as possible, graduate degree and the last thing now that he's settled in his career is at 29 he's single and wants to keep it that way. You're best served focusing on your finishing college and take life seriously as a woman you need to learn never depend on a man to support you as you need your own career in case you don't have a man to support you. My mother is 90 from Japan and was taught that so when my father passed when I was 8, we were still upper middle class then became wealthy through a lot of hard work and mama being prepared with her retirement all alone without a man. You need to start to focus on you.

    hmmm I've different opinions about this. One thing is for sure, he doesn't want to lose contact with you. But he might me also texting other girls, or in the best case scenario he's just busy. I think you need to take the first step and say something like; Hey! Christmas break is almost here, maybe we should hang out or something to catch up!

    Good luck! :)

    he's into you he's probably just a little nervous. Tell your friends about him maybe it will get around and he will ask you out on a date but always text him back or else he won't be into you anymore. text him occasionally but not to much if you don't text him enough or you text him too much it will run him off just tell him u kinda got a crush on him and launch from there sounds like y'all would be a good couple

  • 5 years ago

    i think he likes u but he prefers to don't show it for the long distance so i think the best thing for u is that u have to keep him as ur text friend till u guys find a way to live somewhere closer then u can go to next level u know guys are not like girls they have other needs too if u r far enough that u cant give him what he wants he amswer his needs in other ways and it will not end up good for u u r going to get hurt if u have other crush go for him not this guy...

  • 5 years ago

    Yeah, well... I think that this is something that is very casual and it is not too serious for him since he doesn't respond back too much. I don't think you should put too much weight on what he says unless you he says that he likes you. Just kind of go with the flow I guesss. Hope that helps! -Layla Larby

    Long distance relationships are tricky

    Dont expect to keep it up just by texting emoticons. I emailed daily with my old highschool love for a year untill we met again i couldnt believe the things we missed and never mentioned in all those long letters. Like that he was smoking and couldnt drive and

    You have to meet this guy to start it off
