I met someone...
| Mon, 03-01-2004 - 3:23pm |
I have met someone...and he has completely fallen for me. He is very respectful of my limits and everything. I don't know what to do, how to feel, or anything. I know that I really like him, but I am having a hard time understanding how he can know how he feels in such a short time. We had spent less than 12 hours with each other, and he said he knew. I'm sitting here scared, apprehensive, excited, missing him(I'm in Madison, he's in Milwaukee), and confused. I feel everything at once. I am unsure as to what I should do. I'm thinking just to proceed slowly and get to know him better. He is an amazing person. He has been married, but his soon-to-be ex-wife dumped him over a year ago. They had a daughter together, who is now two years old. He is 22 years old and I am 19. I have to at least let the events of this past weekend sink in. It is a lot for me because I even have a hard time comprehending that someone can really care about me that much. Does anyone have any stories or advice or comments or anything to share?

P.S.~I am often home to visit family and during school breaks, so it is somewhat long-distance, but sometimes it isn't.

I think that makes sense because you can only really love someone you know, and it takes months or years to really know someone. And when someone gives up doing things that interest them or spending time with friends and family to spend 100% of their time with someone else, that creates a very unhealthy relationship. When that happens I think it means they "need" the other person to fill them up, make them feel whole. And that always fails because if you can't make yourself happy, finding someone else to make you happy is only a temporary fix.

The truth of the matter is, he is hurting from his wife leaving him and is looking to fall for anything that comes his way for two reasons.
1)to make him forget about his wife and what she did to him.
2)To probably make her jealous.
Often in these situations, people are not very stable and there could be alot of insecurities and emotional toll involved. Do you want to go through that. Do you want a clinger.
As the saying goes, easy come, easy go. He might use you right now to numb his feelings. However, once he is over his ex, he might just disappear from the face of this earth.
Keep us posted!!
