“I'm afraid that I don't really know what's happening between us. I keep trying to convince myself that the relationship we have between us is just platonic, that he's my platonic friend, that we're in a platonic relationship but I don't think that's true. I keep ending up falling for him every single day and I just don't know if he feels the same. But then I don't want to put that pressure on him for him to feel the same way that I do. But then today I texted him about something that happened to me when I met some of my former classmates. I told him that there was this guy who was being extra affectionate towards me, that he kissed my forehead, and that he stayed by my side the entire night. But then ever since I sent him that text, his replies have been short. Usually he's the most bubbly sweetest person I know but ever since I sent him that text, he just stopped being himself. I've never seen this version of him.
I asked him if I could get a hug because I missed my friend, referring to him. Usually whenever I say stuff like that, he's always like, "Of course sweetheart, come here. I'll give you the warmest hug." This time he didn't respond to that and for some reason that hurt.”

There could be two possibilities.
One either he likes you back but you mentioning the other guy made him a little upset and hence acting a little distant because he knows his values and morals.
And other that he genuinely cares for you as a friend and is just possessive of this friendship

Im sorry for this confusing relationship. He seems like he was a really nice guy and was perfect for you. He might have felt jealous and almost like you didn’t respect him or deserve him. Maybe he has moved on and met someone else. You clearly deserve him and i hope that this relationship works out for you. Tell him how you feel- you wont be as confused and maybe it will lead to a happy ending. Good luck!
