I just want some outside opinions on this scenario. I was seeing a guy for a little under a year, things didn’t work out (I don’t think it’s worth getting into why), and it never progressed to anything that was 100% girlfriend/boyfriend.
Things ended on a pretty bad note with each of us saying hurtful things to each other. He recently reached out and mentioned he would like to meet. At first, I assumed he’s only doing so because he wants to hookup again. I made it clear I have no intentions of doing that, and he said he would still like to meet. I’m just confused on what the point of meeting is/what he wants.
For me, I convinced myself and gave up on the aspect of ever being with him again. I thought he just simply didn’t like me enough and moved on, as he was the one who ended things.
When he first reached out again, he said “he never had any intention of loosing me as a friend” (although we were never really “friends”, the first day we met we hooked up and we never really fully opened up/got close nor vulnerable with each other, mostly because he was very closed off for other reasons), and “he finds himself comparing other girls to me”. At first he also mentioned he wants to “try again” with only focusing on me, and then when I said I don’t want to, he took it back and said he actually things he’s not ready. Things went back and forth a bit with him asking to meet again.
Im very uncertain on if I should- I would like to keep him as a friend, but I don’t want to restart/break the boundaries I set if I see him in person. I’m also skeptical that he doesn’t really have ulterior motives. What do you guys think?
