writes: I have been dating this guy and he seems unsure of what he wants. He lives in another town so the distance makes it hard to see each other. I know he is going through a hard time because his daughter was just born a few months ago. He and his ex wife just seperated about a year ago. I really like him and want a relationship eventually, but don't know if I should say anything or not. We are good friends and talk a lot, but we hardly see each other. I could see us ending up together, but don't know what to do. I don't know if I should just wait around for him or say something. When I talk to him he acts like he really wants to see me and it is usually his idea to hang out, but it usually doesn't happen. Should I just try to stay friends for now?

Maybe he's got a lot on his plate now, so he is focused on other things. Maybe he has lots of things to work out with his ex-wife.
That said, you also need to know where you stand with him, and that is not going to happen if you stay quiet and wait for him. You don't have to be aggressive, and you don't have to demand that he pays more attention to you, but perhaps you could make your interest known, and then give him time to sort himself out?
