About a year ago he asked me out after we shared our first kiss, but I got scared that it would ruin our friendship and about what our mutal friends would say. Rejecting him after leading him on ruined our friendship anyway, and things were very distant between us for a long time out of awkwardness. Eventually we got over, and remembered why we liked each other in the first place. Now it seems to be starting all over again. He has a girlfriend but he told me he wants to finish with her. He sends me text messages and invites me over all the time, and he always tries to hold my hand or stroke my leg under the table when we're out with friends. At first I really like it because I was so jealous of his new girlfriend when he started seeing her. Now I'm not so sure. I'm a bit scared of his clingyness, and now I know he likes me I can see all his faults so clearly. I'm 17 and this is my first relationship. Please help me, I don't want to make the same mistakes as last time becasue i don't want to do that to him, but I just can't decide if I actually want him.

be honest with him, he probably feels the same.
If you explain it as clearly as you do to us, I am sure that he will understand that you are not ready to commit and need to take things slow for a bit.
Good luck
