Can 2 broken people fix each other?
Relationship Stress / by greendream87

...See more I met this guy who I can literally relate with everything. We started out as friends and we pretty much hit it off right away. We tell each other every problems we have and things we normally cant say to others. He became the person I run to whenever I feel down and he does the same. Just recently he confessed that hes starting to like me and I told him the same. I asked him where do we go from there and he said he wants to pursue me. Problem is hes still trying to move on from his ex and I have relationship issues so were taking things slow. So basically were both really problematic people. He have some issues with himself and same with myself. He has low self-esteem so sometimes he would always get so moody and acts cold (he tries to hide it but I still know when hes distancing himself). And I always try to get him to talk to me which he does after a lot of prodding from me. And this has been going on frequently and I dont know what to do to reassure him. He always asks me why I stick with him and I always reassure him that I wont go and leave him. Im not good at words so I always try my best to tell the right words cause I want to help him and this isnt easy for me cause I have problems of my own. I dont know if I can keep doing this and I dont know if this is healthy anymore. Sometimes I wonder if hes just attached to me because I was the only one there with him when he is at his lowest. I dont want to leave and I promised that Ill always be there to support him but its taking its toll on me. He tells me not to distance myself and yet hes the one whos always distancing himself whenever his problems gets the better of him and the rejection he does sometimes really hurts. I just dont know what to do anymore. I want to tell him this but I dont want to start another argument since recently we just had one again. Do you guys think this is healthy anymore?
