about two and a half weeks ago i started talking to this guy from my class. before that we’d only really talked during group work or class games. at first we were just sending memes and talking about random stuff like school and friends but after a couple days the conversations got more personal. he’d ask me what i was doing what food i liked little things like that and we ended up talking for hours sometimes.
at one point i admitted to my friend that i liked him so she texted him for me. he and his friend said he didn’t like me like that but he still kept texting me normally after sending memes and talking every day. eventually i got his number because my friends and i wanted to prank him and honestly by then i thought my crush had faded and we were just friends.
then one day my friend grabbed my phone and texted him “i like you” as a joke and he replied saying he liked me too. after that everyone found out and we started talking more seriously. but the next day one of my friends warned me that he was only dating me as a joke and said i should leave before he hurt me. other friends agreed but i didn’t want to believe it.
later i confronted him about it and he promised me he’d never play with my feelings or break up with me like that so i stayed. but a few days later my friends asked him in class if he even liked me and he ignored them. one of them literally yelled across the classroom asking why he was dating me if he didn’t even like me. i got embarrassed and ended things.
then a few days later i talked to him again and asked directly if the relationship had been a joke. he swore it wasn’t and i believed him so we got back together. but after that he barely texted me barely talked to me and acted distant. when i asked him why he was ignoring me he just replied “because.”
after that one of his old friends told me he and his best friend had basically planned the whole thing and that it probably was all a joke. then i found out another friend of mine had actually known about it already because she’d been on a call with him and her boyfriend the night before while he denied we were even dating. what hurt most is she didn’t tell me until the next day after acting normal with me the whole time.
at this point i feel more betrayed by the people around me than the relationship itself. me and one of my close friends ended up cutting that girl off completely because the whole thing just felt fake and messy.

Don't deal with peoples shit and cut off whoever wronged you or did something wrong, no exceptions. I am speaking from experience that if you dont follow these instructions those friends will pretend to care about you right after and stab you in the back again later, just cut them off for the better
something similar happened to me...his sister was one of my best friends and to date she has not reached out to check in on me and she concealed information from me about this whole thing. she was also best friends with my sister, they've been friends their whole lives. all i can say is let this experience teach you more about who your friends are. it's when things get difficult that you can pick out who is there for you and who actually values you. also he doesn't deserve your time or attention, leave him alone it's his loss.
