the guy i am dating has told me he isn't ready for a serious relationship and we are holding off on sex bec he doesnt want to hurt me and not be sure. I really like him but I do want something with him eventually. My friends say stick around thier b/f and s.o said the same things when they met them and look at them now but then i read that a guy never changes his mind blah blah blah what to think?

it is entirely up to you. he told you what he wants. it is good that you both are holding back on the sex. perhaps, it would be nice to be friends for a while and see where it goes. i don't believe that a guy's mind never changes. that is a sweeping generalization. but it will help if you do not hold any expectations from him. and pressuring him would only push him further away. i must add that you must get busy in your own life and not make it seem like you are waiting around for him all the time.
