Can Anyone Help me on this real quick???

Hey everybody, I need help on something and I hope some of you can help me out on it. I have this friend, right, and we liked eachother...well.....loved would be the correct word, but anyways me and him were chatting on msn about us (me and him) and he said "best to let you think I dont like you". I dont know what to think of this, does he still like me or am I just imagining it?? I know for a fact I still love him and I think he knows it too. What do you guys think???

Me and him had like an online relationship, well not really but we really really liked eachother and stuff. He lives in Aus and I'm in the U.S. Stupid huh?

Ok well I would really like to know your opinion on this and hope none of you are confused.

I'm not sure but he's probably saying that because you guys live so far apart from each other...and he probably thinks it won't work out so he would rather you think he doesn't like you rather than get your hopes up about ever seeing him.....I typed that the best I could...understand what I'm trying to say????

Yea I understand. I even asked him what did he mean by it he wouldnt answer me back or he was afraid to answer back or something. I really want to know what he meant but I'm afraid of asking him.

Don't be afraid...the only way ur gonna find out is by asking....tell him how you feel. Its not like he's gonna come through the computer and bite you...lol... :) you know he cares for you...maybe he's starting to care 4 u more and is afraid he's never gonna see u. Don't worry things will work themselves out. :)

I know I shouldnt be but I dont want to bother him, I dont want to be a nag lol. I'm not the type to tell my feelings to people, I usually express them on my attitude or stuff like that. Its really hard for me to tell people my feelings, gawd I hate that. He used to be jealous if I like talked to other guys on the net or talked to a guy more than him. Man I hate that me and him live sssooo far from eachother!!

if i said it i would mean "it would be best if you didn't think i liked you" so he does but he doesn't want you to wait around for him because of the distance

EXACTLY.

I was thinking that but I wanted to see what other people would think. Well thanks for you're help!! :D
