Trust Issues…
I met this guy and I kind of like him. So far he seems to be a really sweet guy. Of course he has his flaws and all, but overall I think he seems like a great person. He says that he really likes me and that he hopes maybe our friendship will develope into something, but I’m not really sure I want it to. I kind of have trust issues because of what has happened in the past. I haven’t dated anyone for like a year now. So pretty much the a-hole that is my daughter’s father is the last guy I dated. But even before him, I’ve just been hurt so much by so many people that it’s hard for me to let anyone get close. I’m just afraid I’ll end up getting hurt again and so I have a tendency to push people away when I think they’re getting too close to me. I guess the only reason why I even dated my ex was because I had known him for so long and didn’t think he’d do anything like that to me. I just dunno what to do.
My thoughts would be to just take it easy and explain what you’re thinking and feeling to your friend so that hopefully there’s no mixed signals. If there’s any chance at all that you might like him as more than a friend at some point, seems like you might as well continue to be friends with him and then who knows at some point perhaps you will trust him more?
