A year ago I decided enough was enough and confessed to them. As expected I get rejected and I wish them the best of luck and left them alone. They said likewise. I cut off all contact cause I don’t want drama. Here is the issue: now that we see each other every week they avoid eye contact, or they will stare at me or whisper a hi. I have never had this issue that is why I’m asking.

It could be that your former crush is feeling awkward or uncomfortable around you because of the rejection. They may be unsure of how to act around you or may feel guilty about hurting your feelings. It's also possible that they may have their own personal reasons for feeling awkward or uncomfortable around you.
It's important to remember that you are not necessarily the problem in this situation. Rejection can be difficult for both parties involved, and it's natural for there to be some awkwardness or discomfort afterward.
If you're feeling uncomfortable or unsure of how to act around your former crush, it may be helpful to have an open and honest conversation with them. You could try asking them how they're feeling and expressing your own concerns or feelings in a calm and respectful manner.
You need to take ti make a priority with your own emotional well-being and set boundaries that feel comfortable for you. If you're feeling uncomfortable around your former crush, it's okay to limit your interactions and focus on other relationships and activities that bring you joy and fulfillment.
This is helpful. Now I got a clear answer from men’s perspective. I don’t think talking to them is the best thing for both. I respect the fact that he did not lead me on or not give me a clear answer. I already got my closure. I wish them the best. These few months have made me realize I can live without them.
Thank you. It's great to hear that you have gained clarity and closure in this situation, and that you feel confident in your ability to move forward. It's important to prioritize your own emotional well-being and to focus on your own growth and development, even in the face of rejection or disappointment.
Remember that rejection is a natural part of life, and that it's okay to take time to process your feelings and emotions. It's also important to remember that rejection does not define you as a person, and that you are worthy of love and respect regardless of whether or not someone else reciprocates your feelings.
If you're struggling with feelings of rejection or self-doubt, it may be helpful to seek support from a trusted friend, family member, or mental health professional. They can provide guidance and support as you navigate your emotions and work towards a healthier mindset.
Probably guilt
What is there to feel guilt about though? I left him alone. I’m not angry or mad with him. Matter of fact, I respect him for having the courage to reject me
Some people feel bad for this type of thing even if it's what's best for everyone (rejecting others or disagreeing with them)
I hope they get over that in time. And I hope they do well with their talking stage
