I feel completely at my wits end and so lost as I have never been in a situation like this before.I should probably give you a little back story on the situation. For over a year it has felt like me and this guy, Nate, have been playing cat and mouse but only recently the time has been right for us to actually go out. In a sense we are the perfect match as we balance each other out. For example I am quite a reactive, argumentative person where as he is calm and chilled out. Everyone seemed almost perfect until last night. Chatting on msn he sent me an incredibly offensive ‘joke’ that would never be considered funny as it was sick. The scary thing wasn’t the joke but the fact he had thought of it in the first place and also the fact he didn’t seem to care about how harsh and offensive it was. It was early this morning that I received a few texts from him. They contained lines like ‘I’m sorry for being such a sadistic freak, time for me to get to know how razors work’, ‘the past few days I have been so full of venom and rage to feeling happy then sad’, ‘I can’t be bothered with anyone or life’ and ‘Where does it stop?’My first thoughts that this could be a possible way to guilt trip me but what if I am wrong? How can I possibly handle a situation like this? Part of me is genuinely scared by him while the other part is scared for him; I have never read anything like this before. If this is all true I know that he needs help that I can’t give but what I can I do in the mean time? For the next few days I know I won’t be speaking to him but what should I do after that as I can’t ignore if forever. I can’t handle this...I just don’t know what to do. Help?

BlondeBabe x is verified as being by the original poster of the questionI just don't know if he was being genuine and I don't want to end up making the situation worse. I feel like I am walking on egg shells at the moment. However until Tuesday he is away at a Metal Festival so that's why I choose to try and get advice now before its too late. I don't know if me just completely backing away from the situation is better option...
