Dear Jasmine,
There is this guy that I went out with once. I didn’t like him that much at the time so I broke up with him within one day. I don’t know why, but I think I’m in love with him now, but he doesn’t like me as much as he used to.
We still call each other all the time, but one minute he likes me and then one minute he doesn’t. At school he always makes fun of me and calls me bad names. I don’t get it, does he like me or not? Every time he calls me he always wants to know if I like him and then he says he likes me and then the next day he blows me off.
So I want the tables to turn around. I want to make him jealous and I want him to want me. I want to be the one blowing him off all the time. The only question is, how would I do that?

Dear Cami,
It is understandable that you are frustrated with your situation. However, getting him back for what he is doing to you will just start a cycle of playing games with one another. I think you may like him now or think you love him now because he doesn’t seem to like you as much as he use to. It sure seems as if you enjoy the challenge of getting him to like you again and more likely if he does, you will lose interest in him. While I can’t tell you whether or not he likes you or not, I can tell you he probably enjoys the fact that you do like him despite the fact that he is mean to you.
It goes with that saying some people have that nice guys finish last so that could why he is acting mean towards you. He noticed that you took more of an interest in him after he didn’t have as much interest in you. I don’t recommend playing games but I suggest you don’t tell him you like him anymore. That could make him even more curious as in why your no longer interested in him anymore and could cause him to play more attention to you because he wants to know why you lost interest in him. I think that chances are if he ever shows interest in you, you’ll be out the door because there will be no more challenge for you.
Whatever the case may be, he doesn’t sound like a very nice guy so I am not sure why you have decided that you love him. Perhaps you need to re-think why you “love†him. What exactly is it that you love about this guy? Because it sure seems as if he doesn’t treat you that well. Challenges are fun and all but when it comes down to your feelings, don’t set yourself up to get burned. Think about whether you really do like this guy because I have no idea why you would or is this all just a challenge for you to overcome.
Always here,
Jasmine
