How do I show him...I'm not like her? Any tips?

Question - (6 November 2006) 1 Answers - (Newest, 6 November 2006)
A female United Kingdom, anonymous writes:

I like this guy in college. he has recently split up with his girlfriend - a month ago - and he said back then he didnt want a relationship ever again because she treated him so bad. I went through a bad breakup a year ago and said the same thing then, but now i've come through that and DO want to find new love.

His friend has a girlfriend but the friend has asked me to join these two guys for lunch at college this week. I really like the guy who broke up with his girlf, but don't want to make him feel awkward around me - I don't want him to find out i like him just yet and i CERTAINLY dont wana be the girl he goes out with on the rebound after his breakup.

How do I act around him? I'd like to show him I'm interested and that I'm not like his girlfriend (she hurt HIM) but I don't want to mess up or seem desperate.

Can anyone help? He's a real nice guy really and its a shame he got hurt, but I want to show him i'm not like her and i've been invited to spend time with him!

Just be totally yourself, dear and concentrate on a genuine, quality friendship with this fellow. He's been hurt...it's just been a month and he needs time to heal and recover. In time, he will soon discover that you aren't like his ex gf and that you are a sincere, nice person. But you can't push this dear...you have to let it all fall into place in it's own time. Be patient-be understanding-be compassionate. That is what he'll take note about you, when the time comes. Good luck, hun
