Should I stop being naive and give up or should I keep talking to him and wait for something that only MIGHT happen?

Question - (19 February 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 20 February 2011)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I met a guy through my bestfriends boyfriend. At first we just talked a little online, but it quickly became something. We talked almost all day. I felt comfortable telling him things about myself and he did the same. I began to really like him and his friends told me he felt the same way. We talked all day and everyday and he finally told me he wanted to be with me. The only problem is he lives about 30-40 minutes away. That isn't a huge distance, however he can't get his license until June, and I have no car. We decided to try anyway and use our friends for rides as much as we could. It was going good, but after sometime he told me he couldn't take not seeing each other a lot. He told me he likes me still.

His reasons were that he isn't ready for a relationship and the distance was too much, but also because he thinks he's not good enough. He thinks hes too negative and will only bring me down. He was never that way with me though. He was always the sweetest and so nice. He was persistent that we still be friends and talk the same as before.

I don't know what to do now. I can wait until June, when he gets his license, but I don't know if he would want to try again. He said he liked me a lot still so some part of me has hope that he'll still like me then too.

Should I stop being naive and give up or should I keep talking to him and wait for something that only MIGHT happen? I think he's worth it, but I don't know if I'm just being stupid thinking it'll work out.

hey darling, im a guy. im 19 years old and im going to be completely honest with you. i dont buy it. if you love someone you are with them. would YOU really not be with a person because you think YOU arent good enough? i think he is trying to let you down easy because he doesnt want to hurt you. (BUT most LIKELY he is not telling you the truth).
