Search Results: flirting with everyone at school

Yesterday my guy friend of three years and I had a weird emotional moment. We see each other before/after school and we share a small class. He always finds me at diff times all day just to say hi. Before school I talked to him about how he acts in our class. I think he shows off for me and it's annoying the other people who asked me to talk to him since, even though we're not official, it feels like we are and at the same time it feels/felt like we were just on the brink of kissing and being a real couple. We just do the bear hug and flirty touch thing now... or used to.

We were talking in a doorway and I told him to cool it a little with the crazy flirting, even though I love it, bc it was making the other people uncomfortable. We always hold burning eye contact when we talk and he started to cry and said if I wanted him to he would drop the class. He said his allergies and contacts make his eyes water but his voice was shaky, too, so I'm calling bs. He threatens to quit things a lot and tends to get scared when things seem tough. He's insecure but likes to show off but says he hates attention.

I asked why he couldn't just be normal and told him how much I want him to stay in class. He said he can't understand why I'm so nice to him and keep giving him chances when everyone else gives up on him. I said I couldn't believe he didn't know how I felt about him, We used to say we loved each other a lot, or I'd joke and say I hated him and he'd say, no you don't, you love me, or I'd say, do this and I'll love you forever and he'd say, you already do.

Then I wiped a tear from his cheek and he warned me that he hadn't shaved and it would feel rough. Then we had a really tight squeeze hug and I felt like we were about to pull back for a kiss but I don't want our first kiss to be in school,

Then he didn't come to our class, said nothing, just looked at me later when I asked him why and blew me off after school.
What's going on with him?
