Dear cupid

I've recently been involved with a guy from my college. We started off as friends, and then started seeing each other for around 2 months, before he decided that he wasn't ready for commitment. Since then we've been on and off a couple of times, but are now just really close friends. I should make clear that when we were seeing each other we were never boyfriend and girlfriend, because he wasn't ready for it. However as friends, we're even closer then when we were seeing each other, so it's hard for me to get over him. I still really like him, and i get the impression that he likes me to. Should i just try and move on, or try again to make us work?

I can't stop thinking about him.

The fact that he has stuck around and aloud you two to become so close, must mean that he thinks highly of you, but if it is more relaxed, as you are a lot more closer when you're not involved, then maybe friends is the way to go. Obviously your friendship wasnt spoilt after the relationship ended, but you need to ask yourself if you are actualy happier now you two are closer.

but if you can't stop thinking about him, then maye you should tell him how you feel, if you think he feels the same then maybe it's worth a try.
