Who to believe?

So my best friend finally had enough with me talking about my ex and told me how he she heard from his friend that he doesn't like me or anything. And that he doesn't care if I like him or hate him and that he doesn't want to be friends with me. So I finally got mad enough and I'm like ok I'll ask him about it, and he's like where did you hear that and he's like well Believe what you want.. Seriously why wouldn't he just say yea it's true if it is?

I told him I didn't know what to believe and that he was one of my best friends for 4 months and I don't just want to go and loose our friendship.

What do I do? Should I just leave him alone and move on?

From my experience, when someone tells you to go believe what you want to believe, they're offended that you could possibly even begin to imagine those words coming from their mouths. Guys are normally much more straight up, so if he didn't say yes, then I highly doubt he actually said it. But then maybe I'm just biased...

Moving on is a term you use for getting over a boyfriend. He may be an ex, but he's also your friend. You obviously don't want to lose his friendship, but if you're even beginning to question just leaving him alone--which includes ditching the friendship--I'm left questioning just how much you want to keep your current relation with him.

If you want to be friends with him, go be friends with him. If you don't hear it from the actual source, you can't believe it. Even if your best friend told you, because s/he's not him.

I want to be friends with him but I want him to be happy and I don't want to be the only one trying. I'm gong to give him space for a while and then talk to him again, because I don't want him to go off to college knowing that I ruined a friendship the never existed until we started going. I turned to him for so much and was so dependent on him. I know that's horrible to be dependent but he just had everything I looked for in a guy. So I just don't know what to do.

That is important, and since you know what you want--go for it. If he doesn't make an effort too, then he is not worth it. But I don't know him, which is why I'm telling you to try. If it doesn't work out because he won't make an effort, then at least you know you were the one that stepped up to the plate, and he's the one that backed down and it's not your fault.

And I beg to differ, if worthy friendship were based on how long, my best friends wouldn't be who they are right now and I'd still be hanging onto those who fed me to the dogs.

It's just hard because he's my ex boyfriend... I mean I still have feelings for him so it makes it even harder.

If he was trying to impress a friend or someone... it very well could have come out of his mouth and then they told someone and it got your friend... now hes regretting saying it. id go with the friend. why would they lie to you?

I don't care anymore if he hates me he hates me if he doesn't he doesn't.. I'll survive
