I thought we hit it off, but he backed away and told me he's not over his ex yet...

Question - (7 November 2005) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 November 2005)
A female , anonymous writes:

Met this lovely guy at uni called Simon, after getting to know him via text and just chatting after class i developed a crush. I dont find it easy to fall for a guy but he seemed to be everything i was looking for.

Last week we went to a concert. We got on really well and spent the whole nite dancing and chatting. He held my hand and put his hands round my waist but nothing more, i just thought he was shy but respected this.

Next day we did contact each other via text then it just stopped, Simon did not return my text messages. i told him that i liked him and after doing this he admitted that his long term ex girlfriend and him had broken up just before he came to college but they still liked each other.

He told me he was shocked at me liking him and would probably regret it later as it wasnt my falt that he couldnt make up his mind plus that i wouldnt find it hard to find a guy....

Im so confused, should i wait or move on or was he just saying all this to blow me off?

Sometimes guys bring up the ex-factor when they're not sure what to do in a situation, and they need an easy way to buy them some time and space. I think he likes you, but he's not ready for you right now.

I would suggest that you ease off a bit.... don't send txts but speak to him if u see him. Keep it cool and casual. He already know what a great person u are, he just needs to figure himself out and decide what he wants.

it seems like he's happy to just be friends with you. accept that. he may be just embarrassed because you told him how you felt. just be friends for now. don't expect it to develop into anything more but don't try to stop it if it does.
