I (19F) have been texting this guy (20M) who is an RA on our hall, so he is on hall leadership. For context, we go to a private university and every dorm building has halls where the boys and girls are separated dorm-wise, but we have a common area where we can still come together and hang out. He started texting me last month around the beginning of the month ever since he asked me for coffee recommendations and so I gave him a recommendation and told him to shoot me a DM to rate it (I originally told him to do that just to say it). To my surprise, he actually did shoot me a DM with a rating of the coffee that he got, and then carried on the conversation from coffee to about what major I am, where I’m from, and all these other unrelated to coffee questions. We then started texting through messages ever since. At first, I wasn’t interested and would try to end the conversation or get dry, but he was persistent with texting and I admired the effort. I eventually started enjoying texting him every day and looked forward to texting him. And no, it wasn’t because I liked the attention. For. a week, I had to even ask myself that or if I was actually falling for him. We even hung out one on one in person when he bought me iced coffee and he asked me where I saw myself 5-10 years in the future. I asked him the same and from that day, my interest in him started to grow. There are so many moments in person as well as glances towards each other where I swear and am convinced it is not just a friend type of thing. He even picked up on some of the terms I say and have been saying a lot now he literally told me that he’s picking up on my terminology as well. We’re still currently texting and very much in contact with each other, but recently I found out from HIM because he told me he was going to text my roommate to tease her about something funny. And so, he and my roommate have been texting where he responds in paragraphs and asks questions as well. She told me about it (she knows what’s been going on) and even joked asking if I was “sad” he has been texting her a lot and our mutual friend, (fake name) Maria, because he apparently was texting her as well. It’s nothing flirtatious but it’s the fact that he is giving off the same exact energy with them as he does with me. I start wondering if he only texts the girls on our hall to be friendly. I know I am not owed an explanation especially because we’re not together nor has there been a confession of feelings. Maybe it’s insecurities? But, I’m still a bit hurt about this. We have been non-stop texting each other every day for almost two months and now I just feel like I should stop because I’m actually catching feelings for him and it’s better to stop than to get hurt. I just feel like I should start distancing myself from him. I don’t know what to do. I was sure he was interested in me and liked me but I doubt it now. I’ve been in my head about it for the past week and I just needed to let it out here.
