Pisces and Romantic Interest

There's this Pisces who has been on my mind lately. We met a few years ago, and are still friends on FB. He used to be in one of the classes I took and is friends with a few of my friends. I don't go to the college any more, but he still does.

One day my friend (and a group of his friends) and this guy walked to a coffee shop quite a distance off campus. I brought my lunch with me so I didn't buy anything, and this guy noticed and asked, "aren't you getting anything?" I said no, and he said, " are you sure? you walked all the way here". Then my friend told me to find a table (which I did) and when I put my stuff down. This guy put his stuff next to mine and sat between me and my friend, so he had me segregated from the rest of the group.

I asked my friend if he started working on his portfolio (to which he said no) and this guy asked me if I started working on mine. We started talking a bit more and had a small conversation. I remember him saying that he had an assignment due in 2hrs (he had a week to work on it), and I said, "you've had a week to work on an assignment and you haven't even started if yet, and it's due in 2hrs?" to which he replied, "I work well under pressure". Anyway, he didn't talk to me for a few months after that.

Near the end of the year, I told my friend that I wanted to know why this guy acted the way that he did. My friend just said that he was going to tell this guy that I liked him (I told my friend that I found this guy quite attractive), so that's what happened. I recieved a screenshot from my friend from this guy that said, "I would rather talk to her in person." My friend texted this guy my number and I never recieved a text.

A few weeks later I saw him walking in the hall. I asked, "You wanted to say something to me?" to which this guy replied, "Yea, did you want to hang out? and see where this goes? I could wait for you after school" to which I replied, "follow me" and I led him to one of the empty classrooms. I told him that I was quite nervous and that this never really happened to me, and he said that nothing romantic ever really happened to him either. At the time I didn't believe him because I thought he was too attractive to have no romantic experiences and I thought he was too good to be true, so I said, "I'm not ready to be in a romantic relationship." He seemed upset and crossed his arms stating, "I guess I'm not either." We talked for a while and he suggested that he did what he did because he liked me..

A day later, (I thought I blew it) he came into the library where I was studying and came near me so I could clearly notice that he was there. He sat at a table nearby. About 20 mins later I gathered enough courage to go and talk to him. I asked him to come with me and I led him out of the library. I apologized for my behavior and we talked a little bit. He made it seem like he wanted to stay in touch with me over the summer...

...we hung out for a few hours in the library together. Then parted ways. When school was out for the summer, I messaged him on FB. He seemed like a different person. At one point i even said, "I just don't want to chase after someone who isn't all that interested..." to which he replied, "I definitely wouldn't say that I'm not at all interested."

We talked for a little while afterwards and eventually got to a point where I asked where he wanted to go. He said anywhere as long as it didn't cost anything . I asked if he had any ideas, and he said "can't say that I do hahahaha" This led to me confronting him and him saying that if something happened between us next year that would be good and if something didn't happen that would be good too.

I dropped out of school, realizing it was taking me in a direction I didn't want to go in life. And almost a year later I casually asked him out for coffee on FB. He agreed to meet me (I don't know why) so we went out together. I told him I liked him. he said the situation was awkward and that he wasn't ready to be in a relationship yet.

Why would he still remain friends with me after all this? What are your thoughts?

run away!!!

just kidding. I'm just at a weird place with a Pisces right now and it's making me bananas.

Tell me about it. The whole situation literally drove me insane.

I liked the part where you didn't talk to him for one year OP

Hm idk sounds weird that if someone say man or woman not ready and the other one was. Then all of sudden it changed within a fraction of second. Then it has got me thinking is this the one I want to spend energy, time...

So seems to me no one is actually ready. Idk and now it seems that it can't be saved cause now every thing would be ackward. Good luck @Op.

He's keeping you as an option. Pisces men never know what they want.

That's not good.

been into mine for 2 years now.

he's blatant about digging me, but he always ends up watering down whatever it was he said or did while opening up.

didn't like me questioning him about whether or not he had feelings since he always back tracks after expressing them, which I knew he wouldn't, so now I wait out the distance game. 🙄

I completely agree regarding the back tracking thing. It's like they deny their actions completely.

Are you referring to his reaction to when I told him the first time that I wasn't ready to be in a relationship? And when you say "is this the one I want to spend energy, time..." are you referring to me or to him?

Both?

I'm a Pisces, even I'm confused!!?
