I have been dating this guy for a little over two months now, and we are perfect together, the problem is lately he says he doesn’t know what he wants. We get along great, and he admits he doesn’t really have any complaints. In the beginning of our relationship, I was a little reluctant to get involved because I’d been a bad relationship in the past. He has too and convinced me to give it a shot. A few weeks later he found out his mom has terminal cancer which is something I’ve dealt with having lost my own mom to cancer 2 years ago. Recently an ex girlfriend who really hurt him in the past and called to make sure he was okay. A couple weeks later he started acting a little distant and finally said he’s not sure what he wants. He doesn’t want to end the relationship completely, but he feels we may be best friends more than anything else. He says he is afraid of hurting me and is very stressed out about his mom. I told him I understood, but I wasn’t ready to through in the towel. He assured me he really likes me, but is confused about what he wants with any girl. He wants to give it time to see how it goes. I haven’t felt like this for somebody in years and feel he might be comparing me to his ex (who he dated for two years). How do I get him to let his guard down and realize it takes time to develop feelings instead of rushing it? Do you think it’s worth sticking around?
