Search Results: going out with a group of guys

I have recently been hanging out a lot with a guy in my friendship group. I have started to develop a crush on him. He got out of a 2 year relationship 10 months ago. We are both 21. We got in a play fight in the middle of the street when we were both drunk. And he buys me all my drinks. Ask me if I am getting with whoever I talk to when we are out together. Strangers think we are together.

Our friend is trying to set him up with different people and every time I ask him about it he tells me he isn't interested. I invited him to a party and I got told by him that 2 different people liked him but that he was interested in them. And he was being weird the whole night. Staring at me a lot, being really awkward, looking for me and moving closer to me. I went home for 2 days and when I got back, we hung out and he told me that he was going on a date with this girl. This starts to piss me off. Which I think is unfair. He doesn't owe me anything and I'm just upset because I feel rejected. So I decided to block him for a bit, till I get over this and we can just be friends again. I don't want to be mean to him because I'm angry. So, I think sometime without seeing or hearing from him will help.

Am I wrong for blocking him?

Last year I moved to a new city and starting hanging out with an acquaintance and her friends group. In this group there was the cutest boy and there was quite a spark, from his behavior I would have guessed it was mutual. However the group dynamic was very heavy, it turned out that many girls in the group were after him and in particular my acquaintance was obsessed with him. One day I noticed she overheard us talking about going for a drink just the two of us and after that she never invited me again to join the group for months. At the same time, he became very cold with me and eventually stopped replying to my messages, and I now suspect it was her who told him lies about me. Lately I had an enlightening talk with her best friend who told me that she was behaving completely crazy with him and that she was literally stalking him (picking him up at work etc) and that he was so mad at her that he left the group and ghosted everyone in it to cut ties with her completely.

I had moved on as I really thought he had stopped talking to me because I was annoying him. Recently I met a cute boy but since he’s in my life, all my brain is able to do is comparing him with this other boy and think that he was the right one. I don’t know if I should try to get back in contact with him.
