He's been single for a few months but has been very open about not being completely over her (together for a few years) he text constantly through out the day seems very interested... Gone on a few dates. He doesn't constantly talk about his ex and I know he has to heal blah blah blah but could it ever turn serious???

 

Also he has a girl friend that he is extremely close to, hangs out alone with her at his or her place and even admitted to staying the night last night because he had been drinking and apparently this is common for them, he's admitted to sleeping with her a few times, we aren't in a serious relationship so I feel it's not my place to say anything just makes me uncomfortable if this relationship were to continue. They work together and see each other constantly, he goes out of his way for her, and has admitted to surprising her with things that she likes because they are that close.... He did say she admitted to having feelings for him but that he just wanted her friendship and that was it even made a joke about friend zoning her. Is he in denial about his feelings towards her??? Is he just confused?? At this point I feel she's more a threat than the ex...

I can only give you my opinion from a guys perspective. This guy has 0 interest in making you his girlfriend. Any guy who tells a girl that he's "still not over his ex" is saying that to use as an excuse to not move your relationship forward/along. I'm assuming you are young so I understand that you like this guy but trust me, he's just keeping you on the backburner with no intentions of giving you his full attention and care. If he's sleeping over at other girls houses and telling you this don't you see that as odd? I would never tell a girl who I truly wanted to date that I had feelings for my ex still, or that a girl I'm friends with or work with has a crush on me but I'm not gonna act on it. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you are the Rebound girl. The timing just wasn't right for you and him. Tell him that you're lookig for something more and you understand he's just not ready for that after just ending a multi year relationship, and that's understanable but you don't want to waste your time waiting on him to "be ready". If you state this to him that shows maturity on your part and if he really does care about u and want to be with you he will not let you go. If he says "you're right I understand" then you just saved yourself many sleepless nights. Good luck

Oftentimes we get all the warnings from a partner that they are no good for us but for some reason choose to ignore them.

You are a rebound. If you enjoy being with him & can guard your heart, continue. If you are hoping for a future, get out now because that dream will never come to fruition.
