Is it normal to still want to get the attention of the guy you rejected?

Not long ago I rejected a guy I told I liked moths before. We confessed, we got to know each other better (I’m not allowed to date) and as time went by I stopped liking him as a crush, he felt more like a friend. Even after feeling that I continued to text with him because he made me happy, but I did not like him in a romantic way anymore. Just recently I told him what I felt, and he took it well, he said he saw it coming since the moment I told him I wasn’t allowed to date. Now he doesn’t text or talk to me anymore and I miss him, his friendly texts of “are you home?” Or his “good night”. I think it’s wrong but I still want to talk to him and for him to text me.

    Man gives attention to Woman in hopes Woman will give him sex.
    Woman decides not to give him sex.
    Man stops giving Woman his attention.

    Seems like a very sensible outcome to me.

      Or man is rejected and feels like shit and doesn't want to be reminded of it by talking to the rejector. Empathy is something more people should try to have.

        There are three types of women:
        1. Receptive Women
        2. Neutral Women
        3. Unreceptive Women

        Most women start as #2. It's up to the man to get her to choose between #1 and #3. This guy OP is talking about did just that. OP went unreceptive and he moved on. Good idea on his part.

    It’s obvious that he wants something more than just friendship and texting you. You can’t provide that because you are unable to date, thus he sees no reason to communicate with you anymore.

    Yup I the last boyfriend I had was uber clingy and I was not into him. Now, I flaunt my shit to torture him bc it gives me confidence. Its fucking evil but I'd say the majority of females do it

    Sounds like you are trying to use his attention until you get a better man. Not a healthy behaviour unfortunately. He's not what you want, but you still need that attention. I would try other people if I were you.
