I am afraid to tell him to go away because of his temper.
Question Posted Thursday September 8 2011, 11:05 am
Oh my gosh. So this guy and I met back in April and we called/texted for a little while. He seemed really nice. Just a little immature. He invites me to the movies one night and when I get there, he said there were no more seats for me and he couldn't "ditch his boys." I'm 20 and he's 19. I didn't think the age difference could be THAT drastic. But, he's super immature.
Then he told me he "could change." So, I started responding to his phone calls and stuff but it's not like I took him back in or promised him anything. This guy is so odd. He just shows up where I am sometimes and says hi and then walks away. My friends and family really aren't fond of him. He has a HUGE temper. He'll call me and tell me that he's so in love with me. And then when it takes me like 5 seconds to respond he says this conversation isn't going as planned. He also tells me that he wants me to make all the moves and be like super assertive. That's just not me... at all.
Idk, it's just weird and I feel kind of scared for some reason. Not like I can't sleep or anything like that. But, when he texts me, I start to get like a weird knot in my stomach. At night, he'll text me around midnight like all these cutsie things and during the day his temper comes back. I know this isn't the kind of guy I want for myself, especially if I'm uncomfortable around him. But... what do I do? I'm afraid to say something to him or not reply to him because of his temper.
I know this isn't good... that's why I'm asking for help and opinions
The best way to get out of the relationship is to cut contact with him completely, Don't answer his text, Don't answer his calls, Remove him from facebook if you have too block him and leave him there. Reality is, Someone can't just magically change it doesn't work that way. You stated above in your question he was very immature, Clearly maybe a bit too immature to be associated with you. Dump him, If you feel uncomfortable dumping him in person or over the phone leave him a text message and don't respond. Every text message he sends you delete, This is the only way he will eventually get the point. If you can, I would block his number because people who are controlling generally have a nasty habit of stalking and harassing people when things don't go their way. If someone wants to play kiddie games, Learn how to play them back in a mature manner. Go off the grid, Cut all possible ways he can get in contact with you and whatever you do you do NOT contact him that is only going to feed into it. If this guy continues to harass you afterwards you take it too the police. However, In the meantime block his number on your phone if you can't then call the cell phone provider and tell him that you have a number you'd like to block they may charge you a fee of 10 bucks or so but that is a hell of a lot better than receiving numerous calls and text messages. You already know what you need to do but next time when someone says they will change don't be so vulnerable... [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
