Should I give him a chance?

Opinions needed please! OK... I went on a blind date w/ this guy like 3 years ago. We didn't want to meet eachother w/o others there we knew so, I took my sister and he took a friend. Well now my sister and his friend are married (which is great!) That night that we all met, he was like a 5th grader, poking at me w/ the pool que, pinching, etc. I got a bit pi**Y and quit talking to him. Well when my sister and her husband got married he was there of course. He has been trying to date me every since. We have kind of tried once, but we are both so hard headed we just didn't work. Again, he has never quit trying to date me. He will usually only talk over text messaging, which I think he does b/c it is easier to say things that way. We do have a lot in common and he is a really nice, stable guy. He asked what I was scared of and I told him I was afraid of getting hurt like I have SO many times in the past (too many to count) and I'm afraid to lose my independence. He assures me I will still be able to do the things I currently do w/o him interferring, and may even join in on the things that he doesn't really care for that I'd like my b/f to be at w/ me (i.e. going w/ friends, having a few drinks, playin' pool) He does not drink alcohol, which is fine, but I do- socially on weekends. He said that he could accept that, just not every single weekend. We are beginning to compromise and we both realize we have feelings for one another, but have to figure out how to make things work. Another part of me thinks he is just wanting this for sex. That used to be all he talked about until I basically told him to quit talking about it, or he could forget us talking all together. I let him know relationships are more than sex, and he agreed, but that still concerns me. I am really confused, but so want to give this a try - but still fear getting hurt, then we have to be around one another b/c of my sister n his friend! Opinions? Ideas? Thanks for reading!

I think in any dating situation, ther eis the risk of getting hurt or rejected so that, to me, is pretty unavoidable. But if this gu likes you and willing to make things work with you, why not try and see. It sounds like it may be worth the try.

If you both like each other you may as well go for it. After all there is a chance of getting hurt in ANY relationship with ANY man. The only way to avoid hurt is to avoid relationships altogether and you don't want to do that, do you? Iri
