Search Results: how to act towards a girl you like

A guy & I had something in the past but we broke up and became friends but there was still some chemistry by the way us. Suddenly, he starts being hot and cold towards me, he'll avoid me one moment and talk to me the next, he just kept switching for no reason. He's a player, he moves from girls to girls for fun, trying to make me jealous too but the relationship doesn't work. We started talking again then he starts snubbing me again and he gets involved with another girl, I thought he's playing her too & trying to make me jealous but they look really happy together tbh. I'm really heartbroken and stuck, I can't move on from him & I have a small feeling he still likes me but his ego is getting in the way. I don't know what to do, I just can't continue feeling like my heart is slowly shattering everyday, I'm seriously hurting. I feel so weak and vulnerable & I hate myself for ever loving him. I honestly wanted to make him feel as horrible as I feel but I'm too nice for that. Its messing with my life ; sleep, school etc cause I was deeply in love with him. Even now, I still can't hate him as i love him. How do I feel nothing towards him? How do I act cold and emotionally unavailable around him? I just want to be free of my feelings, so he wouldn't have power over my emotions anymore. I want to go back to being the flirtatious, happy person I once was. What do I do? How do I detach myself from him? Please help!

I have a college crush. He is very outgoing and extroverted. He is the CR. I initiated convo with him regarding an assignment submission. And we talk a lot over text. I ask him to help me with studies, to teach me some sums and he always does that. We have also called each other and solved sums together. He is a genuinely helpful guy. He talks with every girl and makes fun of them. He is a bit flirty. He will talk to my friends in front of me but won't talk to me. He never makes fun of me and gets shy and nervous whenever I try to talk. I'm an introvert myself.

As exams are coming up he said we can't solve sums on call if I have any problem he will teach me in college. So the other day he came and asked me so bluntly that if I need any help. I said yes and he came, sat beside me and was teaching me that. And it was awkward, he was kinda reserved. Then his friends started teasing him saying 'what's going on between you two' he was just smiling.

I also punch him some times playfully and he just smiles.

He speaks with everyone nicely but with me he acts different. He teases every girl but not me.

All of a sudden whenever we bump into each other he has started smiling and says hi. He also blushes. Today also he looked at me and smiled. He came towards me as if he was trying to playfully punch me then he gave a fist bump 😂

I can't understand if he is an outgoing guy why doesn't he talk to me in college like he does with others? Why is he so serious with me? Why does he talk to formally? Does he not like me? But when I call him he talks very nicely.
