Theres this guy ive been talking to for a while now, and we sweet talk, he even tried to hold my hand a few times, but i just found out that he talks to his ex (he was with her for 2 years) and like gets jealous over her still ,and still argues with her.. and even when he was talking to me and he said he had to go cause of his mom, he was actually talking to her arguing about these guys she flirts with, they can never be together though, because of some particular reasons.. but i dont know like, hell want me to call him before i sleep, text him when i wake up, hes always so sweet to me and always calls me alot, and when i told him were like brother and sister he got annoyed and told me to never say that again and that were not at all, and were more than that, but he didnt say what we were.. now i dont know, should i hold on to him because he has every right to still be inlove and jealous over his ex and just give it some time?cause maybe he likes me but is still hung up on his ex and i should be understand? or should i just cut contact or distance myself from him because i dont want to gain feelings for him , when hes probably just going to hurt me? i really do need help, any answer would be appreciated .. thanks alot =)
mannequin24 answered Wednesday January 4 2012, 7:27 pm: I understand what you're going through. I was in a similar situation with a guy just recently. From it sounds like, he may still have feeling for her, but because they can't be together, he's turning to you for what he isn't getting from her. It's probably not a good idea to continue being this close with him, mostly because you might start developing feeling for him that will probably end up getting you hurt. It might hurt for a little while, but it's definitely tons better than getting too mixed up in his drama. Also, you don't have to cut all ties. If you feel like he might be able to get over his ex, then I would just keep some distance until he does. In the end, you should choose what you think is best. I've tried offering advice based solely off of experience. I hope I helped, and good luck with whatever happens :) [ mannequin24's advice column | Ask mannequin24 A Question ]
