Search Results: the waiting game

This guy I met instantly fell head over heels for me, but at the time I was in a relationship. He waited and waited trying so hard to steal me away, but I kept telling him I would not leave someone for someone else. Finally after about 8 months when my relationship was at a breaking point I felt this guy pulling away as well. I broke up with my boyfriend bc things just weren working and the next day reached out to the guy. He became very stand offish. This was shocking to me and it made me in a way panic that he never meant the things he had said to me. There was always a strong connection between us that just automatically put a smile on both of our faces... After three weeks of waiting I started dating and he got beyond upset with me saying that he obviously meant nothing to me. He was very rude to me those three weeks I waited and continued to be rude up until about a month ago. I have been dating the same guy since those three weeks. One night this guy reaches out to me saying he really misses having someone that truly cares about him in his life. That there is no denying the connection we have. Because I am with someone I didn't comment much on the convo. A week ago my boyfriend and I split and this time I didn't tell the guy. We hung out with some friends last week and immediately after departing he commented again on the connection we have and how he hasn felt anything like it before. So last night I bring it up and this time he acts different saying there is a connection, but nothing physical. This morning he then starts acting flirty. The whole time all of this was going on he constantly mentions that he thinks I have strong feelings for him when I don't I am just curious. I wonder if he just likes my attention... He is in my group of friends and doesn't act this way with anyone else.
