I'm having lots of issues with my friend. Please help!?

Question

I'm 14. Me and my best friend went out, we broke up, but stayed friends. He gave me a necklace on the second to last day of the school year. I loved it and told him it was beautiful. The next day, he asked for it back. I took it off, and I started crying. He looks at me and says have a good summer. I called him twice over the summer. He didnt call me back.Today was the first day of the school year. I said hi and he just gave me this head nod thing and walked away. He's in 2 of my classes so it's not like I can ignore him. I'm not mad. I just want to be friends.What should I say to him? Should I give him time to cool off? Do u think he's just embarrassed? Please no answers like he's a jerk, don't talk to him, because I really just want to be friends with him. Thanks.

Most guys aren't interested in keeping girls as friends especially if he was once interested in you as a girlfriend.  I don't think you'll be able to get things back to what they once were because he has to be just as interested in having a friendship.  Right now, he's showing that he doesn't want a close friendship with you.  Friendship isn't something that you can make happen.  He has to put in the effort too and until he does you'd be better off moving on with your life.
