I'm so very puzzled. Here's the situation: Ryan Ellis and I went to Homecoming together. I decided that night that I liked him. And, as we hung out more and more and started holding hands (and kissing twice...the first kiss was beyond perfect, it was under the stars in the courtyard at Valley Park Elementary by a garden of sunflowers :). ), he liked me back. He even said so, for I asked him straight out. It's been a week and two days since we last hung out. He hasn't gone out of his way to find me at my locker like he did for the past few weeks, and when I ask him when we are going to hang out next, he answers, "SOON" and never gives me a time. When I ask him flat out for a specific day, he either doesn't answer or is busy. Has this romance faded? I'm terrified it has. I cannot be hurt again, it's happened too much. But how can he go from liking me to not in one week? I have no idea what's going on. :(
