When I first started uni, this one guy was really friendly toward me and spoke to me/was around me a lot throughout the day. I didn't think anything of it and have now known him for 2 years. He's always been nice, I catch him staring at me often and he makes me laugh sometimes. I've tried my best to keep things purely platonic and to not give him any glimmer of hope in terms of our friendship progressing, as I'm not attracted to him at all. I know that he likes me as people have been talking about it on our course and I've been informed by a few guys I know. I didn't discuss it further with them to spare the guy any embarrassment.
He's started to ignore me lately and I fear it may be due to him feeling offended by my "friendly" yet slightly distant demeanor? I don't do the whole *lead the guy on to boost your own ego* thing some girls do, so I stopped sitting next to him in lectures/going up to him first etc. It sounds horrible but it seemed like the right thing to do at the time. I don't want to lead him on at all and fear my friendliness toward him before did so. I'm not ignoring him completely though. Recently, he doesn't acknowledge my presence at all and is very cold. That's not what I wanted at all. I know this my fault but what can I do now?
