I have been interested in a gentleman for a little over a year. He and I are very good friends. It seemed to me for a while that he was expressing interest as well. So, one day I felt compelled to tell him exactly how I was feeling towards him. He pretty much told me he did not feel the same way. Since then I have kept my distance from him just to give myself time to heal. He calls me once in a while and tells me he wants to keep in touch. The more I limit my interactions with him, the more effort he makes to talk to me. I don't know what to do.
The answer
You are doing the right thing. Keep your distance from him. You do not need to get closer and get hurt. You need to also examine yourself and make sure that you got over those feelings you had for him, and that he is really now just a friend. Pray to the Lord to give you inner peace and protect you.
