Question - (16 December 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 16 December 2010)
A female Australia age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I'm 18 and I really like this guy who lives in my house. He's 20 and a backpacker. He moved in 6 months ago and while I didn't like him at first over those months I've gotten to know him better than my parents. I never really 'liked' him until on his birthday (turning 20) we had a few drinks and cuddled in his bed. He's fun and wicked to talk to. He's seen my family in the worse of times and the best. He's admited that he always had a little crush on me that has turned into a larger one (even admiting to my dad though convincing that nothing was going to happen) and I've admited that I have a soft spot for him. A week ago he kissed me (sobre) and weit's kinda developed. Now... my dilema. 1. I know he's had a few girlfriends since he's been a backpacker... a few flings... We've agreed that we're not together and he's said to me that he doesn't want to hurt me and then have to leave the mess behind (self controoool) and 2. he's leaving the country in a month.

What should I do? Should I continue? Should I just throw caution out the window and go for it?

A female reader, tennisstar88 United States +, writes (16 December 2010):

tennisstar88 agony auntThe man is a nomad, he's not in a place for very long, he moves everywhere. He is incapable of holding down a steady relationship, much less a normal LDR. Not to mention, he's had several flings along the way. In fact, he doesn't want to get into a relationship because he already knows it's not possible. Plus, who doesn't like to have a girlfriend from every city? Let it go, have fun while it lasts. But keep in mind you're just a fling. He'll find a new fling in the next place he moves on to.
