Search Results: is flirting sincere

So, I met this great upfront guy and we hit things off, or at least I thought so, we'd been flirting for a few months now, so I realized I liked him quite a lot, he's quite sincere and honest. We eventually ended up having the 'sex' talk, and while I wasn't a virgin, he was. And after that everything changed. Well, not everything... The flirtiness is gone, the romance, gone. We still hangout together a lot and spend time together, and he hasn't treated me any differently, but I feel like he's become distant. So I couldn't take much more and confronted him, he said he'd prefer a virgin because he was a virgin and that wasn't something he was willing to compromise on. And that he preferred someone with no past, all his words hurt so much.
But he wasn't demeaning, he sounded like he'd made up his mind. And now I'm desperate. I can't stop thinking about this guy. We still talk and spend a lot of time together. But its become platonic and I'm left with one sided feelings for him. I feel so bitter towards him. What do I do? Do I still have chance with him?
