dear cupid,

its my first time on this advice site,

so im here for advice

recently my best friend has told me that he has feelings for me.

background information: we dated about a year ago for only around a month, we didn't know each other very well and things were a bit awkward, I suppose. and eventually I wasn't sure how I felt anymore so I ended the relationship and decidd that friends was a better idea

and since then we've become very close and he's someone I trust and is my best friend and he's recently told me he still cares for me.

and im unsure,

I trust him more than almost anybody and I know he would never hurt me but I can't guarantee that I won't hurt him again.

it seems like I have commitment issues, and I just don't want to hurt him again

but he thinks its just worth a chance even if it doesn't work out.

and lately he's been catching up with friends that are girls,

and I know they're only friends but I guess I feela bit jealous.

im unsure and I have a chance and im not taking it but im somehow regretting it but still not willing to change my mind,

Im really not sure what I should do.

basically,

why am I feeling jealous about him seeingother girls if I don't care enough to take a chance?

LazyGuy agony auntBecause you don't want someone else to play with your toy even if you are not playing with it.

You are probably torn between a guy you know should be a good partner but who just doesn't do it for you. But it is one thing to not want to date him, it is something else all together for him to no longer want to date you.

It is human nature to want what others have.
