What to do if I really like a guy, but there are complications?

Well this is kinda long story, but I promise I will make it as brief as possible, so pretty much all throughout high school I was the girl who was shy, quiet, only stuck with my own circle of friends. I think you get the type. I was tired of just being plain old Anna, so I decided to just not be so scared of everything anymore. I pretty much changed my entire view on life and I honestly don't care what people think anymore. Anyways one day I was walking from school and I saw this guy walking in the same direction as me and I decided I might as well talk to the guy cause it seemed like a long walk. So we started talking and might I add he was really cute and just a year older. So it was all cool until I realized that we're from different races and that our races really apparently hate each other and are prejudiced, but since I was born and raised in the US I obviously didn't care. Then I realized that are religion is also from two different roots that have a lot of conflict, but its the same religion. I consider it quite stupid. Anyways we continue walking for 45 minutes and I gathered all my courage and asked for his number, which he gave me. For this past five days we have been talking pretty much nonstop and I'm really starting to fall for this guy, but lately he just isn't messaging me and is ignoring my texts. So I thought maybe I'm being clingy, so I have stopped texting him just waiting for to just respond I guess and I know that he has seen the messages because we both have iPhones. I really don't know what to do because everyday I'm getting even more stressed and staring at my phone just waiting. How do I get my mind off of him and what do you think I should do? Something else thats been bothering me is that he calls me "my sister" or "my sweet" all the time. Is that a red flag or something? Also in my religion I have heard people say that to each other, but i don't know. So I'm so sorry it turned out so long!

Yea he Sees you as a sister not as a girlfriend

Whoa, slow down girl! You barely know this dude and you already sound like you're nuts about him. In my experience, it's best to take things slow. Stop obsessing over something that hasn't even started yet. Keep yourself busy with other things like hobbies and other friends and don't worry too much about potential relationships. I would suggest only talking to him every 2 or 3 days and don't always be the one initiating the conversations. A girl that immediately pounces on a guy and clings on like a leech is NOT attractive. So don't text him all the time, you'll just end up annoying him and pushing him away.

Don't be afraid to be a little mysterious and let the relationship grow gradually. Also remember that this potential relationship IS NOT the most important thing in your life. Don't let it dominate your thoughts and go crazy over it. Be chill, be yourself, and see where it goes from there.

Also I would say if he calls you sister it is kind of a bad sign.
