So I've been with this guy on and off for awhile, he really means a lot to me and I know I mean a lot to him. We even lost our virginity to each other. But times are hard and we decided to just be friends, but he has met someone else and basically tries to shove her in my face sometimes. I think it might be because I told him I was with someone else to get him jealous, cause I wanted him to miss me and want me more than that girl. Anyways, he wants to be really good friends. And I think his definition of being friends means we might be more than friends when we hang out; which I'm afraid of because I don't want to get hurt again knowing he's with someone else. Well a couple times before I told him we couldn't be friends because it just wasn't going to work, which really upset him. I try not talking to him, but when he texts and calls too much I always give in. And when I give in it feels good at first knowing I can have him, but then I hear about him with the other girl which upsets me. And I really do want to be friends with him because we have been through so much together. But I just recently told him we shouldn't talk for awhile. Because I need to lose my feelings for him. If I give it a break is it possible to be friends again? I just don't know what to do. I don't want to get hurt
Ok here the deal. The main problem in almost all relationships is lack of communication. Its obvious he doesn't wanna lose you and you don't wanna lose him. You need to get him alone and seriously talk with him. Tell him straight up how you feel. Then let him make the next move. That's all you can do. Takin a break doesn't work. Ur feelings will come up again as soon as you start talkin to him again. Just have a heart to heart.
O. K I think that as long as you give in then it is possible, so first you have to have self-control or things will never go your way, and second tell him how you feel to his face that way he knows your serious (and I'm talking about both the friend part which I don't think you really want, and you still having feelings for him, which I think he knows and this is why he is doing this to u) and lastly find happiness with yourself cause you can't truly love someone until you love yourself
