Ravenette Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Hello all, I have been seeing a new guy for about 3 weeks now. We have great chemistry, amazing connection. Its new and fresh, and were in the getting to know each other phase. We don't have any expectations we both want to take things slowly. However there was alot of talk about getting physical but that never happened. All we've done is a few heavy make out sessions after our dates. He recently ended a year and a half long relationship, about 3 months ago. Yesterday he apologized to me for being so forward, he said he felt that he was acting like a "horny douchebag"(with all the dirty sex talk). He had been a bit forward. If I just wanted a hookup I wouldn't have minded, but i like him and want more than that. He said he needs to put the brakes on us and have time to himself. He needs to "figure things out". I was a little hurt by that but I told him to do what he needs to do. I obviously am going to give him space, but realistically do you guys think he will give me a shot? Or just run back to his ex? I really like this guy, and he's told me the feeling is mutual. Advice please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartGoesOn Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Time will tell, but I do think you're taking a huge risk by dating someone who is only 3 months out of a long term relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariel85 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I think he's just broken things off. I think you need to move on and not contact him again. If he gets his head out of his butt in the future, he knows where to find you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenette Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Should I still keep trying to talk to him? As in keeping it casual? or should I pull away completely? He said he's not cutting communication with me, but should I? In his words: "When everything is fixed, and I am able to be the good guy I know I will be. You'll be the first to know."

desert_rose26 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 keep talking with him but keep your distance till he's clean and ready like he said...that means not being his friend...remember you want him to date you..not string you along.

annie24 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I would give him 100% space and move on. If he comes to you in the future and says he is available and single and ready to date, then consider his offer. I agree that he's probably dealing with some issues with his relationship (ex or not).

Ariel85 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 In his words: "When everything is fixed, and I am able to be the good guy I know I will be. You'll be the first to know." What does this mean? When what is fixed? I'd tell him to stop texting you, and wish him well in the future. He's game playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
