Search Results: guys afraid to show feelings

I messed things up with the girl of my dreams.

How often does that happen? . lolz.

But, it's true. A while back I dated the best girl ever. ... But, I still had feelings for an Ex and was honest about it. After multiple attempts at reconciliation, no luck brought back my fortune. She says she's no longer interested and was turned off by the way i handled things.

But, I have a theory. I know what happened hurt her. Bad. I actually still chose her, but the fact i had to think about it pissed her off. Now, what if she DOES still like me, but is too afraid of the hurt? I've become a gamble in her eyes. I was a very good boyfriend, and I say that out of fact, not arrogance. I only date seriously, and i loved what I had. I showed her off and flaunted her whenever I could. She loved it. She has insecurities and the fact that I adored it all made her so happy. But i fell into the Ex trap, and lost the game. But, seeing as how i was one of if not the most genuine guys she had, what if that scares her? and moreso, that would mean I really hurt her. Since I was close and real, the damage was worse. We'd liked each other for years.

This is all a theory me and my 'inside source' formulated. I'm tight with the girl that introduced us, and she says she was in a similar situation. She felt so afraid tob give her guy a 2nd chance, bc the damage hurt worse. Even told me she'd really considered giving me another shot and would ask her (my friend) what she thought. It's been on my mind all week, and I appreciate all who help.!
