Friends with benefits with my crush?

...See more Hey everyone, my name is Andrea. So I was wondering if yall could give me your opinion about my little situation here. Ive been talking to this guy for a little over 6 months now. I was in a relationship when I met him but I left that relationship bc I wasnt feeling it anymore. After talking to this guy, my crush at the moment, he had confessed to me that he likes me. But after I left my relationship I told him I wanted to be single & I wanted to get to know him as friends. Well I ended up falling for him quicker than I thought. Weve hung out twice now and the second time we both basically decided to be friends with benefits. Idk kinda stupid right? The reason for that is b/c I still am not ready to be in a serious relationship yet. So, we decided that we could just be friends & get to know each other more over time while doing couple like things like kissing, holding hands,etc NOT sex tho. I am definitely not doing that unless weve officially have been dating for a while. Ugh I seriously dont even know what Im doing. Were both 21 btw. But what do yall think?

...See more So I was in a 5 year relationship with this guy who Ive known since I was like 10 (were both 20 now). We started off as friends then bestfriends and so on. But for the last few months I felt that it was best to end it and just two weeks ago I finally ended it. It did take me two times to actually break up with him. The first time he said we could work things out and stuff and I was so stupid to agree but then I realized that all I want now is to focus on myself, my studies and work. Thats when we had the talk again and yes he got really mad but I dont blame him. If I had told him how I truly felt months ago maybe this wouldnt have been so bad. We had decided that we would cut off all communication for at least a month. That however didnt go as planned. Because hes still trying to get me back I guess you can say. I would hate to constantly break his again but he leaves me no choice. He doesnt seem to understand that I dont want to get back with him. I really dont know what to do. Hes texting me still talking to me as if we were still dating. Its seriously so annoying. All hes doing is making me not want to talk to him ever again but I would love to just stay friends but seeing how he is now makes it seem impossible. I know that he loves me & I probably wont ever find another guy that loves me as much as he does but he just isnt the guy I want to spend the rest of my life with. I want him to move on but hes only making this worse for himself.

How do I end my 5 year relationship with my boyfriend?

...See more Hello all, so Im currently in a situation which I have never been in before. For the past two weeks Ive been trying to process this whole situation and I just cant seem to figure out how and when to do it. My boyfriend and I are both 20 Incase thats any useful information. Anyways, I would say for the past few months Ive been having so many negative feelings towards him and its finally got to the point that I dont want this relationship anymore. What makes it hard to leave is what he may do as a result because based on what hes told me he says he has depression. So Im scared that he may try harming himself b/c of the breakup and he has also been going through a lot lately. Also I know most of his family and I feel bad bc I would be ruining all of those relationships I have with them. I honestly just dont feel the same anymore. Im not happy with this relationship. I feel uncomfortable even going to this house since he doesnt bother coming to visit me. I feel like a horrible person doing this to him especially when hes still dealing with certain things in his life but I think he can find someone better. I even thought about writing what I feel and giving it to him bc whenever I decide to talk to him about it I know Ill forget half of what I wanted to tell him. He truly loves me so thats also making this situation hard to handle because I know this is going to break his heart but he deserves someone that will love him dearly. And we make 5 years in 2wks
