How can i help heal his broken heart?
| Sat, 01-10-2004 - 6:18pm |
My boyfriend and I had been dating seriously for a month, and i can tell that he cares about me a lot, he's mentioned that he loves everything about me and has even talked about what it would be like if we ever got married. However, when i told him recently that i thought i was falling for him, he said he couldn't love me like that, he was hurt really bad in the past and not ready to be in love again yet. He can't even seem to talk about what happened. So I told him i'd wait and that we could go back to being friends for a while (his idea), almost start over. Only, it's as if we're still dating, he acts almost the same way and even makes comments every so often that indicate he'd like to be. Is he confused? And how can i get him to open up to me and help him move on, how can we go back to being more than friends? Thanks for the help, this is absolutely driving me bonkers!

You say you are acting like you are romantic again and it takes 2 to do so.
Have a frank conversation with him and define what the friendship will be. Ask him if he wants to date yet see others or see you exclusively because you are confused. When he makes those comments you need to call him on it.
