im gonna start off saying its Oct 23 i got out of a 5 year relationship in june he got out of a 3 year in july....he been coming my work constantly finally asked me out first of sep . Things were the best. We couldnt of hit it off more we hung out almost every other day he texted me every day . Introduced me to his parents and all his friends there is no cons to this guy took me all the way to west Virginia to meet his sister (her opinion matters alot to him) and we continued hanging out careful not to get to serious. He contently said i scare him so much because he can see a legit future with me now we are not seeing each other because he says his head is so messed up right now from past relationships he doesnt want to hurt me and thats what will end up happened. That i am the best girl he could ever hope for but hes not ready for me. I dont get why would you pass up the best thing (so you say) just because your scared and not ready ??? said he wasnt supposed to meet me yet?? PS Iv been on other dates and wasnt really ready for a real relationship but i really like this guy alot

Well, sounds like he got burned in prior relationship.

Yes, it can take years to get over it, and you are young, so if you like him then work on it with him. Patience is a virtue and it can be rewarding.

But, if he was really badly burned in the prior relationship, be prepared to do some understanding.

aunt honesty agony auntOk well it sounds like this guy is just really not ready to settle down and he is really scared of commitment. Maybe his feelings for you scared him a lot and he just ran as he doesnt know how to deal with them but you need to tell him that he will lose you if he doesnt make his mind up.

Tell him that you really like him and you were really interested in seeing were the both of you go as him to be honest with you as to why he doesnt want to be with you and work it from there.
