i'm in love with him but he wants to wait.


Question Posted Saturday August 27 2011, 1:01 am

I am falling in love with my best friend, Josh. He is a senior and I am a junior. We go to the same school, talk on the phone constantly, and we've been hanging out more often. A while ago he was going to date someone and I confessed my feelings for him and so he decided to give me a chance. I was overjoyed... But now he's just so confusing. First he told me he wanted to hang out more and we're doing so (he's coming over tomorrow, too!) and then he told me he doesn't want to rush into anything because his last relationships went so fast and it wasn't his doing and he wants to take it slow. I can't wait any longer... I want to be with him so badly... I am respecting and understanding his decision, since I want a stead relationship too... But I am scared to show him my real feelings since he is holding off the relationship. I'm scared he'll be slow in taking the next step in making us official... I have liked him for a long time and I don't know what to do/think.

Don't rush things, you will only get hurt. If you move too fast and he changes his mind, you may be really crushed emotionally. Have fun with your friends, work out, find things to do and improve yourself in some way. Don't make him your entire world. It will only make him more afraid. If you have other guys interested in you, there's nothing wrong with going out on dates. It would allow you to think more clearly and also take your mind off of him until he comes around. Hey, if he sees you have a life, he will definately want you in his.

Good things come to those who wait. With that said, STOP!!! Stop getting so anxious about it all, if you want things to work out between the two of you, you'll have to take your time. He wants to go slow, that's good. Most guys rush in to if for the sex. His past relationship didn't work out because his ex rushed things, ok take advantage of that! Take things slow, you say you love him. Than show him. Get to know each other better, remember liking someone isn't the same as loving someone. But once he's not feeling so insecure and unsure of his actions and yours everything will fall into place.
