Why is someone mean to the person who likes them?

[Anonymous]

My little sister likes a boy but he throws subtle shade at her... why?

This guy follows her... does what she says... he's a little stalkerish but to me he refuses to tell her he likes her... im confused so I haven't said anything just yet

They aren't mature enough to process their emotions. They are still learning how to be people.

Maybe he isn't aware of his feelings yet.

That would make even more sense. 13 is right around puberty age. I started falling deeply in love with a girl when I was a freshman in college. I would be so nervous around her, I would have to run to and throw up in the bathroom if she was to close to me. She gave me my first and only anxiety attacks. It took me until she disappeared to realize what was happening.

Did you ever get to speak to her? Im curious or did you find someone else

[Opinion Owner]

I only spoke a few words to her. Unfortunately, no real conversation happened. No. I have yet to find someone else.
