There is a guy the same age as me who I've met about 5 times or so, and had recently started talking to online quite a lot. I really liked him, and people said that he liked me too, but that he was just very shy.
Talking online helped break the ice and the conversations started to get a little flirtier.
Anyway, I saw him yesterday at a party, felt quite nervous and didn't know what to say, so ended up getting really drunk in order to find the courage to tell him how I felt.
We went off to talk alone, and I told him how I felt. He said he felt exactly the same way but didn't think it was a good idea to get into a relationship because he wants to go and live abroad in the summer (it's not certain, and nothing has been arranged, but he's hoping he can)
He said that he's really disappointed about this because he would have loved to be with me, he really likes me, etc.
I appreciated his honesty and told him it was totally fine I understood, but yeah I was quite sad.
Anyway we ended up kissing anyway, and later on we were very drunk and one thing led to another despite us having said that we shouldn't do that, and I ended up spending the night in his bed.
I talked to my mutual friend about it and she said that he might not necessarily go abroad, he may change his mind, and to not give up hope.
Apparently he has told a few people that he likes me, and my friend really thinks it could work out.
He had a bad long-distance break up with an ex and apparently he doesn't want any long-distance again, which I can understand. He doesn't regret anything that happened between us, I asked him if we could meet this week for a drink and he's agreed.
Do you think there is any solution at all? Do I need to just completely forget about him and move on? Thanks
