I feel a connection between us - he really understands me and he's very open-minded and sweet. He was engaged to a woman for a month who he was with for six years until she left him for a guy at her church. This just happened in January 2012 and I'm pretty sure he's not over it. One night he slept over at my house for the first time (no sex) and the next time we met, he was very awkward around me. He then admitted he was 100% certain about this but he thinks I'm great and wants to take it slow. I asked him what he wasn't sure about but he just couldn't explain it any further.There are not many guys I meet that I like, and I can really see a future with us if he wasn't so awkward. Should I stick with him or leave him as if he's not certain now he may never will be?

Besides that, I think he's being very courageous that his breakup just happned 7 months ago and he is getting back out there to date again. If you want this to work, you will need to be very understanding and patient until he feels like he is over the other relationship.

Why are you rushing things? He was engaged to a woman for 6 years that left him. Do you expect that he is over her and all of the emotions and is ready to hop back into a relationship already? I am not trying to be disrespectful, but don't jump the gun and start questioning him before you even get the chance to know him. Getting over any relationship is tough, but to have spent 6 years with someone, was engaged, and she left him for a guy at her church? This is going to take a little time. Enjoy your time with this guy and don't pressure him about what you mean to each other. It is way too early for that.

How long have you been seeing each other?
And yes, I would talk to him about, he can't just dodge such a statement.
And stick to the no sex.
