Search Results: he is not that into you breakups

So obviously, there's this guy. We've been friends for awhile, & after he had a nasty breakup over Christmas break. Well we were still close, & I kinda liked him, but he was struggling with the loss of a 2 year relationship that didn't end well, and needed space. Well after move in day in Aug, we started getting closer again. Hanging out a lot, walks, the little diner type place on campus... my feelings grew. I wasn't sure if it was mutual, but because we're apart of a lot of the same groups & were so close, I was seeing him so much that I was about to start making things crazy awkward. I asked one of our mutual friends who's basically his sister, & she said that while he was still having relationship anxiety, if I felt like we needed to talk about it, that we should. So we did. I got an awkward smile & "Okay", with a text a few minutes later saying that I took him off guard, but that he isn't looking into a relationship with anyone in anyway. The usual cop out. But like I said, he is actually struggling with relationship anxiety, & I feel like we've actually gotten a lot closer. We've gone to the coffee shop together almost every day since, we eat together a lot (usually w/ a group), occasional text, he cracks at almost all my jokes, the body language signs (with the exception of the hair), Snapchat story feature, today was the first day we haven't see each other & hung out in over a week and he texted me with a work question... so basically is there any chance that it wasn't a cop out & he really, truly isn't ready?

Oh, & this is probably a bigger deal then I'm making it out to be, but side note, I'm fairly certain his brother likes me?

There's also this other girl & they do stuff together, but she's several years older then us, usually is the one to initiate the hangout, and I think likes this other guy. But they do go get food some or an occasional movie, & he messes with his hair around her (But not the other signs). He insist that they're just friends, so I don't know.
