I met this guy at group therapy and we really bounded over are experiences.
We have bouth been through some traumatic stuff that's been really difficult to speak about and for myself I've found it so hard to accept what happened to me and open up about, I'm not sure I even feel comfortable talking about it on here to people I don't know.
But here goes I was basically kidnapped and for this guy I've been talking to he was stalked to the point it ruined his life.
His stalker is now getting the help they need but she would turn up to his elderly grandparents house and claim to be pregnant with his baby and harassed his then girlfriend and scared her away from being with him. It bought a lot of distress to him and his family and he actually got sectioned at one point because she was threatening to make flase SA claims about him and he thought his life was over as the police had not listened to him before and ignored him.
Me and this guy have become extremely close and I feel like he's the only person that can comfort me and I can open up to right now. It's been a really long time since I've felt like I can trust anyone like that let alone a man. He's been so amazing to me and has been there for me none stop. Whenever I feel scared at night he's just a phone call away.
He's opened up about his feelings for me once before and told me I've really helped him get his life back together because he feels like he has to be strong for me also and he genuinely cares for me and that's great because he makes me feel so safe and protected. l
I told him how I felt about him and that I think I might be falling for him and he suggested we stop talking for a while because we shouldn't become dependent on each other and he's scared but if he gets into a relationship again my safety will be effected from his stalker if she over gets out of prison.
Now he keeps pushing me away and it's hurting so bad and I'm getting all these negative thoughts again

Well. Give him some space. I know you really care about him and it hurts when someone you care for pushes you away. But you can’t force it. If someone doesn’t want to be in your life. Irs best to let them go.
If he wants to take a break from talking. You have to respect that. Sometimes you have to let some people go. You can’t force someone to stay.
The way you get him to stop pushing you away is to stop trying to force yourself on him. He's right; you should avoid becoming dependent on each other.
you don't. You move on
I just feel so stupid and it just proves to me but I genuinely can't trust anyone. I opened up to him and he told me he cared about me and now he's pushing me away after its took me so long to trust men again
at least you can get out before you go in any further
