A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I met a guy from an online dating site. We hit off after the first date. I never have sex on my first date. However, the chemistry between me and him was so strong, I slept with him. Things were going sweet on the second and third dates. Yet, I felt that he was still not totally over with his girlfriend since he mentioned many bad things about her during our dates.

Then he became very stress over his work, health, and his future. Even though he calls me everyday, he is always emotional in the phone and even in our dates.

I was sad and helpless in this situation. Last weekend, he was upset hanging out in the area where his girlfriend lives. I then asked if I am a rebound or something. He answered that he has many things going on in his life and he may not ready for a relationship. He suggested to take thing slowly and encouraged me to meet other matches. Was he breaking up with me or not interested in me?

He was not breaking up with you and he is very interesed in you if he can tell you all the emotional things he has been through. He just knows he cant give out all of his heart right now, because he is clearly still hurting. This girl must have done something so hurtful that he can barely handle it. If you are really into him, stick it out, but you cant be nuts. The last thing he needs is some girl breathing down his neck about all the things he is doing wrong. He just needs time to mend his heart back together. Give him time, and be supportive. Dont push the relationship issue on him, because frankly it sounds like he just can handle any more stress. Good luck

Frankie14 agony aunti dont think hes not interested in you, i think he must have a lot else on his mind, maybe he just doesn't want to hurt you by making you stay with him through everything, it could be hurting him more than its hurting you to say that, he may just be looking out for you x
