Ok so here's my story. This guy asked me out a few months ago. I told him that his timing was wrong and that I wasn't completly saying "no" but just giving him a "yellow light". I told him we needed more time to get to know each other.

A few weeks before he asked me, there were compliments and flirting but after I said "no" he doesn't do them as much if any at all. We still talk but I can feel the kind of distance between us.

Does he still like me? Did I cause this? WHAT'S HE THINKING?

My other male friends suggested that his pride is hurt and he wants to just come off as if he doesn't care. They said he still likes me just that I'd have to be the one to ask him out this time - but I don't know . . . I still need more insight.
