He doesn't show his feelings in a group
Anna, 17, from Maine asks:
Why would a guy worry about what other people think if he really cares about me? Because I think my friend cares about me a lot but he's not showing it as much as he used to. When it's just me and him he seems like he really cares but I've heard a rumor that he's just acting, and in a large group of people I still sense that he cares but he barely shows it at all.
VictorM's advice:
I think it's more likely that he's acting when he's front on the group, and being himself when he's alone with you.
Maybe someone said something that he didn't like (like you being a couple, or someone made some unpleasant remark, who knows) and he's avoiding that appearance in front of other people.
I suggest you tell him what you just said here, but do it in a non-confrontational way. Just tell him nicely how you feel, and ask him to explain his view. Most likely there is a good explanation.
Whatever you do, don't listen to the rumors among teenagers. Teenage rumors and politicians selling a war... same difference.
