Ask Mr. X: A classmate of mine used to like me. He is really nice to everyone except me. He ignores me and shows that he does not care about me. Why don’t boys accept their feelings?

Ever wanted advice on your relationship from that cool guy friend who has all the answers? Well, Mr. X is that friend for you. Every other week, he’s going to answer the questions you send him and if there’s one thing you can count on him for, it’s being honest. So go ahead, ask Mr. X

“I’m a 25-year-old girl and a classmate of mine used to like me. I got to know about it, and we fought. He is really nice to everyone except me. He never behaved badly with me, but he ignores me. He shows that he does not care about me when I know he likes me a lot. Why do boys do that? Why don’t they accept their feelings? Will he marry me if I propose to him?”

What you should definitely not do is propose to someone who ignores you and shows you that he does not care about you. Even if he actually does, and he’s only hiding his feelings, he’s clearly not ready for a big commitment like marriage. As a guy, what I can be sure about is if a guy truly likes you and wants to be with you, nothing can come in his way if he wants to approach you. Maybe he does like you, but if he’s ignoring you he’s probably incredibly shy or still not mature enough to understand and process his feelings. This guy needs time to get there, and you proposing to him won’t really help him get there – it’s his own journey to take.

I wouldn’t put all my eggs in his basket if I were you. You can keep him as an option but go out and meet other guys. You need a guy mature enough to express his feelings to you – and you never know being around other male energy may motivate this guy to be honest about his feeling towards you too.

Wish you the best of luck on your journey ahead.

Godspeed

Mr. X
