make or break email

well, i know this guy and we were kind of seeing each other. I don't think I've felt like this before about anyone...there's just something about him! Lots of things were said to make me believe he wanted a relationship but then in the end nothing come of it - that was before christmas and we ended up not really speaking. One night last week, I saw him when we were out and we had a big discussion about it. He said he wanted to give things a go and that he thinks we'd be really good together. I told him I wasn't going to make the effort this time and he replied 'I'll make the effort, i'll make the effort'. Nothing really happened after that and then the other night I saw him in our hall bar before going out - he sent me a message saying that I looked amazing, and we ended up texting for the rest of that night. He said stuff like how he wished I was there and then even said at one point 'lol i love u lots'. I'm not sure he meant it - i think it was the influence of the drink. I sent him a message saying how I was confused as to the situation between us and he said 'don't be we've just got to talk face to face.' After all this, I felt as though it was time to properly express my thoughts and feelings about everything that has happened between us, so i sent him an email. I hope I've done the right thing, I really don't know...I guess I just have to wait for a response...
sorry - i don't want any advice, just your thoughts if you feel like writing....

I'm excited for you - you already know he likes you back so it's just a matter of time. You'll have to let us know what he says!

Good luck :biggrin:

You'll all get to know me one day as a failed psychology student who thinks he knows his stuff, so best to take what I say with a pinch of salt!

BUT!

My theory in life is that if you're single and someone expresses even a mild interest in you, it's harmless to let things run their course. If you find the guy cute, why not give things a go? There's no need to take it too seriously. If you're a little bothered by guys who court you and get in with others etc, just say "if we do this, I want you to be loyal" or something, and that way, you're either with a lovely guy with potential, or you find out essential info on the schmoozer and can move on!

Good luck, chill out, relax...and have fun!

I guess, deep down, I think he's not ready/wanting a relationship...and I guess I am worried that he will say no. Cos the thing is, that all that stuff that I mentioned has always happened/been said after a few drinks on his part...and then the next day it's kind of like none of that happened/or was said. That's what has made me confused. I know he likes me, he's told me, it's just whether he's wanting a relationship I'm not so sure....i'll have to wait and see....well, that's if he even replies to the email!

god dam it i know what you mean, i saw this girl on and off for a good 5 months occasionally. When sober she'll tell me we shoule end things, then get drunk and blurt out how sorry she is and how much she misses me.

in the end i learned to take nothing seriously and keep all options open.

[note: i havent seen her for 2 months and have been up to all sorts but i think she's crawling back again, weird people]
