When a guy says he’s not ready for a relationship rn do you still stick around?

He was so ready to jump into a relationship no questions, even after I told him I wasn't EVEN READY FOR ONE. Everything for the past month was like a fairytale he was like the perfect guy I was praying and manifesting for a long time.. he use to always beg me not to hurt him or play him & if it’s not what I want leave before it gets deeper because he’s beginning to “fall in love more and more everyday”
Everything went down hill every since this One night I went partying with some girlfriends of mine and my phone died so i didn’t see his text..
next morning I texted him told him what happen & he never replied (it was odd because he always call or text back fast no matter what) hours went by I texted again and asked why was he ignoring me.. as the days go by after that it wasn’t the same anymore.. he texted back late. Mood changed, started lying a lot.. and we finally sat down and addressed the issue.. he said he really want me in his life but he’s not ready to be committed yet... by the way our conversation went he’s tryna explain that even tho he don’t want a relationship he don’t want to loose me.. I told him it’s no alternative, you can’t have me and give out nothing in return. So I told him it’s best to go our separate ways so neither of us would get hurt.. I see he be trying everything to keep in contact and I don’t know if I should stick around and just take it slow until he’s ready like he said or just move on. I want to stick around because I really like him. But then again I’m scared the “taking it slow” stage is never going to go anywhere

It is completely up to you, you can move on and forget about all that. Or you can stick around, and be his friend till the time is right. I met a girl and she wasn't sure about getting into a relationship, but I kept sticking around her. Even if i whould got friendzoned, she was worth keeping close with. A few weeks later, after that she kissed me and now we are happely together

best to move on. he got mad that he didn't have all your attention and is now slowing things down.

in other words he lost control of you and is now trying to manipulate you and regain control.

No. But it all depends on what you want. If you are looking for a relationship and he cannot offer that then it’s probably best to move on especially if you have feelings for him or a crush and you guys are still hanging out it would make it so hard for you to leave. But if you’re OK with being just friends then by all means go for it. For me, I have learned the hard way.

No. I would move on. I’d take that as a gentle let down. Sounds like he found something better. :(

Well that depends on how u want to be treated. Do you mind him sleeping around? Do u want to be ignored? I'd u answered no then move on. I'm not trying to be in a relationship means he doesn't want it with u. Probably cuz he's got his eye on someone else. Very rarely u get that from someone almost completing school and they just want to concentrate on finishing that. But mostly ya, move on

[RichardCranium6201]

Ah, now I read it all... Come on, u expect US to believe that? My phone died. All us guys know that when the other partners phone dies,,, it's cuz they are doing something. Because a woman who is IN a relationship and goes to that party will make sure her phone DONT die. "

I wouldn't. I would rather move on.
