Hey Carol!

Sorry for not responding quickly enough. I was on a small hiatus but now I’m back. Thank you again for reaching out to me, because I love hearing these stories and helping out.

Well, I would personally think it through, and you should see how you feel and how your feelings are towards him. You should consider if you see yourself with this guy in the future and if you feel he is worth your time. His ignoring in front of his friends is not very nice and there could be a lot of reasons why he’s acting like this but overall it isn’t very nice of him to be ignoring you in front of his friends. I also think that if it happens again, don’t hesitate to give the same energy back because remember if you are being nice and kind and he isn’t giving you that same energy back around his friends, just ignore him.

Overall, I won’t say that it can’t work out because it could also be that he is just too shy to tell his friends about you or talk to you in front of him for fear of getting teased. I would also say to keep your feelings to yourself for now or not until you feel like things are working out with him. Again I’m only giving you my advice from my perspective but you will figure out what to do and I know you will. Remember relationships are hard and having one takes up a lot of responsibility but love will always be there and you will find it at some point in your life. I hope my advice could help you and I wish you the best. 🙂

Sincerely,

Esperanza
