I'm a 21 year old college student who recently told a friend of mine that I was into him. It's kind of funny because he was in a relationship for the majority of the time that I knew him, but he just broke up with his girlfriend (and he did the breaking). But I still wasn't going to say anything because I thought that even if you were the breaker, you still need time to grieve the relationship. Anyway, I saw him flirting with some other girls and while I didn't think he was really into me, I didn't want to lose my shot just because I was too much of a punk to go out for what I wanted. So I told him I was into him. He politely said "I like you, but not like that". And I actually felt a lot better after I got over the "oh damn" feelings.
About a week later, I went to his birthday where he proceeded to make out with a girl in front of me and it didn't hurt as much as it could have. A few days ago, I was shopping near by his job and I stopped in to say "hi". It was a short visit and when I got home, I found out that he called me and said "Sorry I was distracted with working. I thought you were coming back and I've been thinking about you (or what you said) " And I was so taken back by that, that I didn't call him. I haven't had any contact with him since and I don't know if I did the right thing. I really just didn't know what to say. I plan on being my sweet, funny self when I see him again, but I don't want him to feel like a messing with him. I'm just a little confused. The good part is that I believe we're still friends. So, what do think?
Update: We're still cool, but once, a week ago, when he was in a big group with a bunch of mutual friends that I haven't seen in a while, I couldn't really look him in the eye. I didn't do it on purpose, but I don't know. I think he noticed too. But I'll deal.

It sounds like he is being polite. If he had interest in you, he probably wouldn't have been kissing another girl. But it looks like he is still wanting to be your friend.
That's really weird that he would make out with some other girl right in front of you at his birthday party. I understand that he told you he wasn't into you, but don't you think it's kind of rude? anyway, there is no way of knowing what's going on in his head if you avoid him! try hanging out with him.. don't bring up the phone call, or anything like that.. see what happens. I know that is pretty basic advice, but it's hard to find some kind of meaning from that message if you keep ignoring him. the same thing happened to me.. I mean, he didn't make out with other girls in front of me, but he started dating this girl.. he had been in love with her for years, but they didn't think it would work because it was long distance. they tried it out. they were together for 4 months (i was miserable the entire time). she randomly broke up with him, so I did my best to comfort him. I guess I said the right thing because we've basically been together since then.
