We started dating too soon after his breakup -- should I wait?

Question - (8 July 2013) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 July 2013)
A female Netherlands age 36-40, *eylimepie writes:

Hey Guys! I'm feeling really sad and I need some honest and objective opinions. 3 months ago I started dating this really great guy. It was very laidback and we saw eachother like 2 times a week and it was very nice.

After 3 months my feelings became stronger and I wanted some perspective from him on the future. I wanted to know if he wanted it to stay casual or something more.

He had to think about it and came over to talk about it. He told me (i knew this) He only broke up with his ex gf like 4 months ago after a relationship of 6 years(and we started dating 3 months ago) and he couldn't give his heart because the breakup was still fresh.

He told me he really liked me and that the timing was just off ("if it was just a few months later" he said). He started crying so I know I mean a lot to him.

What is the best thing for me to do? Wait around and stay friends? Leave him alone? Or is this just a lost cause?

We clicked on so many levels and I can'n believe it's done for good.

Nicole.x agony auntPersonally I would give him some space... He has been honest with you which is really hood but its clear that he needs time to get over his ex! You two being together may make things easier for him perhaps? But be honest with yourself your clearly falling for this guy what if he turns around a year down the line and says he still isn't over his ex?

Really does sound like bad timing. If I was you, keep it causal. Hag out sometimes keep in contact and let him get over the brake up. I would not kiss or cuddle intimately as it may blur the lines and if he ask tell him you do care for him but you want to do things properly.
