Life is Long, Don't Rush
Visitor's Question from a 21-30 year old FemaleI have been friends with this guy for over six years. In the past last year we have grown to be more than just friends. We are so good for each other and so compatible. The problem is that he states he always wants me to be a part of his life no matter what because he has in such a sacred place in in life. He states that he does not want to rush in to anything but would like things to fall into place. In got his heart broken by his ex and I think he is not over her. As well I think he is afraid of getting hurt and is very negative about things.
I need some HELP on what to do. I try to keep my feelings towards him at a minimum. I'm at the point that I think is this guy stupid or what. Why let a good thing pass you by.
