Hi, se tisesion earlir didnt get any responses, so I'd really appreciate some help:

i was seeing guy for 4 and a half months (not officially lke) 3weeks before he startd seeing me him n his gf of 3 n a halfyears broke up, about 1 month into things he asked to take a step back n things were going well but for the past month ive started arranging everything etc. and now he's asked to take a step back again, n i don't know if he was trying to end things or not. He mentioned just being friends, but then later on he said he likes me enough not to end things with me. In the end (as my idea) we decided to keep seeing eachother but at his pace. But I feel like I've come off as too strong and desperate and I'm scared I've lost him for good. Please help me. I don't know what to do?? :(

you need to take a step back and decide what you want from him.

once you've decided, tell him what you want and ask him if there is any possibility of him being able to give it to you.

i dont mean marriage and babies, i just mean, if you're hapy to wait for him to sort himself out, then tell him that, but you have to make it clear what you want in return. do you really want to be a part time girlfried to someone? can you actually do that without resenting him?

i think i'd probably take a break for a few weeks and let him sort himself out before getting too involved, at least that way you'll be halfway to sure about how he feels.
