Why would it take forever for a guy to express himself to a girl when his actions and everything else tells me that he's obviously feeling me I just want to hear it from him now. Does anyone have a idea why he's taking so long I think he's scared but then again I'm not sure. Reply to this Question Share |

But showing him that I wont wait around for him is something that I can do so I will.

At the moment he seems to be the one with all the power-you need to show him he isn't.
Start seeing other guys, even just casual dating, this will show him that your not prepared to wait around anymore.
Yes he'll get jealous, but tell him again how you feel but you can't put your life on hold waiting for him to make a decision, you deserve to be happy. Hopefully this will make him realise what an idiot he is being and that he may actually lose you. I know it's hard, i'm in the same boat as you--but making yourself a little bit unavailable might help to make him realise that your not going to be waiting for him forever. I hope it works out ok for you, remember you deserve to be happy....good luck!!!

He doesn't want me to be in a relationship with anybody his actions tell me things I need to know but then again they may be mixed signals I feel like I bugged him long enough about this and i told him that i waited too long for his answer and he told me paitence is a virtue so I have no other choice but to wait longer and its eating me up

My guy is quite shy and maybe scared about things going wrong and ruining our friendship and i think it could be this that is holding him back. I reckon this is probably the case in your situation aswell. You have known him for quite a long time and maybe he is worried that if things don't work between you it may effect your friendship. So maybe it is going to have to be you who makes the first move and expain to him how you feel, say that you value his friendship but you like him as more than that and your willing to give it a try. Remember the best relationships are also based on a solid friendship, you need to talk to him or it may be something you regret for the rest of your life. If your friendship is strong enough then if things don't work out you may find it difficult at first but eventually you may get the friendship back-I did. But you really do need to get your feelings out in the open, you don't want to be looking back in 10 years time and thinking, what if?Hope it all goes well for you, good luck!
