Seen this guy for a while, we speak for hours every day on the phone, we have a connection like I’ve never had before, like a best friend but more.

Haven’t had sex yet because we wanted to wait, cause he was sexually coerced & abused by this girl who then made a false allegation against him when he eventually rejected & left her, he had sworn off sex for life until he met me. He’s currently waiting for results of the investigation which has put him in a depression and struggle with trust. But he told me I’m the best thing that’s ever happened to him, that I repaired him and brought him hope and trust back in people, that he’s grateful and so lucky to know me.

He was supposed to see me next week and was super excited, but today all of the sudden he cancelled because his mental health has hit rock bottom the past week & work is piling up, he said he knows if he sees me he’ll catch major feelings (which I think he already kind of has), and isn’t ready for a relationship and needs to see a therapist. He doesn’t want me to be his emotional crutch (he’s been really open about his feelings) and wants to man up and take his problems on himself and said it wasn’t fair on me to take on all his downs.

I asked if he needed a break and he said yes and that he’s going to take a break from social media to recharge and focus on himself and work. He said he’s really upset and wished circumstances were different and that he’s really gonna miss me. I told him I’d give him space and wait for him when he’s ready. I’m just worried he won’t contact me again because he doesn’t want to bother me. I don't know what to do cause I’ve caught feelings he’s such an amazing guy and I don’t want to lose what we have & can’t see myself with anyone else. He was just such a breath of fresh air from a series of failed dates and relationships, & felt like I found something truly real for once.

Do you think he’ll get back to me? Is it worth waiting for? How long should I wait before moving on?

A woman's pride and shame will also make it seem like she's "ghosting" you when she's not

I often feel bruised and rejected by people I thought were my friends. Usually it's females, because men are usually more down to earth and willing to talk about what's on their minds whereas women will go AWOL and play...

Is my friend who friend zoned me jealous of me having another close friend? Why?

Me and this girl (A) have been friends for slightly over a year now. She has rejected me probably three times and knows how I feel about her. We even stopped talking and hanging out

Me and this girl (A) have been friends for slightly over a year now. She has rejected me probably three times and knows how I feel about her. We even stopped talking and hanging out for 5 months but then started hanging out again, before she left for Germany. I gave her my hoodie before she left and she started texting me everyday. I asked her and she said she just likes me as a friend, so I told her that we should stop talking and then she said I still want to be friends, (I did too) and we agreed on talking every once in a while to stay in touch while she was gone. She would do things like post videos of herself in my hoodie, I’m sure it was to get my attention, and when I said I’m glad you wear it, she said yeah 🖤. Fast forward a couple months and she is now back and it’s been 2 weeks. We talked about hanging out with our best friends who were dating each other up until I found out my best friend raped one of my friends, who is also a girl (B). Before (A) found out, (I thought she knew since it was all over Instagram) , I asked her to hangout Saturday and she replied two hours later saying I can’t. I then asked for Friday but she said she still hasn’t seen one of her closest friends yet so we could probably hang within the next few weeks. I thought she was hesitant to hang because of the situation with our best friends, so I told her my stance on it and she didn’t even know, not even her best friend who was dating my best friend knew. I then told girl (B) about this and she then reached out to girl (A) explaining that she is my close friend and wanted to clarify what happened so that girl (A)’s best friend would feel content. They started talking a lot, still do (it’s been 3 days) and girl (B), who I know likes me, would talk to her a lot about me and bring me up a lot in conversation. Girl (A) then hit me up and asked if I had spring break next week and suggested that we maybe hangout. I feel like girl (A) who I have known longer than girl (B) is jealous?
