Friend thinks I'm annoying

[tonyhasipod]

Here's the deal:
There's this kid who I want to be friends with. He's a really cool guy that I want to be friends with, I don't want him to ignore me. We are pretty much aquantences. I got his # to text him, and during the past week I texted him asking when we could chill, I asked maybe twice a day for 3 days because he didn't answer any of the messages. Yesterday I asked if I was annoying on Facebook, he read the message but didnt reply, then I sent a few messages explaining why I was annoying(he's cool, I just want to hang out)

Obviously I have to change my behavior to not be annoying, I wasn't thinking when I sent the texts. He reads my Facebook messages(and presumably texts) but doesn't reply.

Again we are aquantences. What do I say to make up with him, make him give me another chance at bring friends?

Were both guys

I know you want to be friends with him--and I know what it's like to want to be friends with someone. There's nothing you can do to "make" anyone give you another chance at being friends though, regardless of who they are or what happened. If someone doesn't want to be friends, you can't force them to be friends with you--it's just not gonna happen. Now I'm gonna be frank with you. If I was him, and that happened, honestly you would come off as desperate and clingy, neither of which are good things to come off as. At this point, I would just leave him alone, give up on him, and look for another friend. Don't try too hard, just be yourself and let things take their natural course. There are some times that you have to accept that you messed up, and it's clear to me that at this point, all you're doing is bugging him. And he's not going to listen to any "explanation" as to why you bugged him, he's just going to think it's weird. I'm sorry, but sometimes that's just how things are. It's better if you move on hun.

your being too pushy on this guy
give him time to think and then decide what he wants
if he reads your messages atleast you know he got them
give him a little bit of time and then when hes ready he will surely message you
but for now back off and give him space

[MrDaniel2K13]

I've made this mistake aswell; just back off for a while

I'm going to be honest here. You are being very pushy and clingy, which is probably why he doesn't want to be friends or hang out. You can't make people like you and you can't make people want to be friends. If someone doesn't want to hang out with you and be friends, then that is just something you need to accept. It sucks. Trust me, I know. But again, you can't make people want to be friends with you. If he hasn't responded to any of your texts or Facebook messages, then I think it's time for you to just give up. Leave it alone for right now. If he wants to hang out, he'll text you.

In the future, if this happens again, just send 1 text and that's it. If the person doesn't reply, wait a few days to send another text. If you send a 2nd text and they don't reply, then just don't bother anymore. It's not worth it to continually text someone and try to be their friend when they aren't interested.

But again, just let it alone for awhile. If he wants to hang out and be friends, he'll text you.

Be more aware of your actions, be aware of his space and don't try to inject yourself into his life. He has to make room for you, you don't get to decide to put yourself there.

So lay low, for a long time. Basically listen to all the other advice people have given you.

Well when i was in love with a guy i sent him really long messages like 5 a day or more and i contacted him everyday most of the day but looking back on it, That is the wrong thing to do and especially being eager and no offence annoying like you are with the reasons explaining why your annoying, Just, Talk to him like you would any other person and lay off him a bit, And remember, Popularity and how high you are in school means nothing once it is finished :)

Give him space dude. That's really all I can say.

What do you mean for a long time?
I was thinking of leaving him alone for ~2 weeks.
Longer?

Just give him a chance to reply back. I'm sure he's doing other things he'll get to you soon. Just don't keep replying without him talking to you. He'll only get more annoyed

No. He definitely read the messages. I sent the texts over the course of days, without realizing I sent so many.
I messaged him on facebook being sorry for being annoying, and he read them but didn't reply. Which leads me to the 'assumption' that he is pissed at me.

Well i guess for the time being. I wouldn't talk to him unless he wants to talk to you first. You could worsen the situation by replying to him

That's what I was thinking, but for how long? I was thinking for 2 weeks? More?

Honestly, I'd leave it alone for maybe at least 1 month. Once a month passes by, try sending him another text. If he doesn't reply to that text, then just leave him alone for good. There is no point in continually trying to be someones friend when they are so intent on not being yours. You can't make people be friends with you or like you. You just have to accept it and move on. Like I said, give 1 month. If he doesn't respond after that, then just stop trying.

Definitely longer.

At least a month. Let the guy alone for a month.
