Question - (30 September 2016) 3 Answers - (Newest, 3 October 2016)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

There was this guy. I knew him from high school and we were always friends with a very strong connection. He liked me but I always had a boyfriend and frankly I thought he was weird. We talked briefly in December and stopped because I was going through a tough time...In August he reached out to me and we started talking seriously like dating. We became very close but because we already knew one another I felt free to fall for him although we vowed to take it slowly. In the last month I got super possessive and weird constantly asking "what are we"? Questions. To where he would constantly have to reassure me and he got annoyed. Yesterday he told me that he doesn t think it will work out between us because he doesn t want a relationship and I do but the truth is I was happy with him just how we were. I told him we could still be friends. The question is what to do now? I wanna give it a couple months...hit him up calm and cool and see if he s into it.

aunt honesty agony auntSweetie you don't want to be friends, you want more than that and he is not prepared to give you that. My guess is that you got quite clingy and this has scared him off. So maybe you can use this and learn that being clingy will only scare a guy away.

I think you should give him some space and try and move on with your life.

I think the answer is to give it time. Leave him a while and just send him something friendly without any pressure. If he's slow to respond, give it some more time without writing to him. He'll figure it out that you just want to be slow.

Hope this helps

Good luck

N91 agony auntYou want a relationship and he doesn't therefore it won't work no matter what spin you try to put on it. Believe me.
