spacey Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 This guy is in my social circle and I had a strong feeling he liked me.Things like we would be at the dinner table with friends and I would look up to catch him staring at me ever so often.He would ask me things like how I RATE him on the dating scale etc etc.When I asked him to hang out 1 : 1,he would just drive over 17 miles one way to come see me and has made comments like he finds me beautiful,hot etc etc but he never asked me out. I was really confused as everything indicated interest but I was skeptical as I am 9 years older than him.Finally I told him I like him and he did not say NO but told me he is not ready as he is getting out of a long relationship and needs time which is a 100% true as he is not approaching any other women as well. Also we ended up having a fight in between and he got mutual friends involved which soured things quite a bit and unfortunately mutual friends given were closer to him took his side and I was so pissed off with him I told him I cannot talk to him anymore as he had shared all the details of our fight with them. Despite everything even during our fight when I met with a car accident he was trying to make sure I was okay by asking mutual friends. I am having a hard time moving on.I have tried to put a profile online but no guy seems interesting enough. Somewhere,something in my mind keeps telling me he likes me..something tells me he will come back in time and nothing I do to shake that feeling off helps. Right now he is in a different state for a short term assignment and he is making every effort to come to my area and though I don't believe it is entirely due to me (he does not like snow and cold weather),something tells me I am part of the reason. I have asked him explicitly and implicitly and the reply I GET is " I am not ready and just a need a friend now" How do I move on ?
deathandtaxes Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 He does not like you like that. He is being honest with you. Yet you refuse to believe him. Go no contact. You'll thank yourself later. 1
Shashasha Posted October 27, 2013 Posted October 27, 2013 Seems very much to me that you are overthinking things. Stop tellingyourself that he likes you. He mught but not enough to be in a relationship EUTH you. Be fair to him since he wants his space. If he really likes you, he will let you know. For now, go complete NC. It will help in the long run. 1
