Should I move on from the first guy I actually in love with?
So ik this guy for 8 months now and we have been casually talking and going out. We even go to holiday together. Hes charming and I never met anyone quite like that. I fell for him and this is the first time I fall for someone. Ive never been in an actual relationship but I know I have never felt this way before. So i told him and he told me that he has some feelings for me too and its most serious feelings he has in the past years and he wanted me to know that. He always told me he had a rough bad breakup 5 years ago with this girl and its affecting him and he cant feel things sometimes and I understand. But i dont know what to do about it. If he likes me why the heck did he only talk to me once or twice a week. And he replied my text literally in hours. The other day I spoke with him and said that maybe this all wont work out and maybe I should get over my feelings but he said why would I do that. He said hes worried Im going to self sabotage myself and talk my self out of it and i think hes right. Maybe he likes me after all but why wont he commit? And why doesnt he wanna talk to me? Is once or twice a week with reply in hours really enough if you like someone?
I thought being in love supposed to make me happy but it made me miserable. The first guy I fell for doesnt even like me back that much. So Im really confused now. I cant force him to have anything with me but i also cant keep doing this without any progress. I dont want to stress him out but I also dont want to torture myself. I know its probably enough for him to have that but it isnt for me. And I know what I want and hes not going to willingly give it to me. But he also doesnt want me to move on. What should i do? The last time we talked I was telling him maybe I should get over it and he said he would talk to me when Im calm down. And he hasnt spoken to me since and it was days ago. And I cry everyday becuse Im sad. What am I supposed to do? Move on? Tel him what i feel? Or keep doing this? Im confused ;(
Same situation here honestly. Im so sorry you are going through this too, it is so painful.
