Another 'I have met a bloke' thread

Okay I met a guy about three weeks ago. We hit it off really well, had loads in common and spoke for ages about everything. Nothing happened, we just talked and we texted/spoke on MSN for about a week afterwards.

I met him again whilst out about a week later. We were both quite drunk and ended up kissing. There has been no awkwardness since and we are still getting on really well.

Anyway he has since told me that he likes me and thinks I'm great, but he is still hung up over someone else and doesn't want to be a jerk to me because of his situation. I completely understand, as I've been hung up on someone in the past and I know it sucks. The impression I'm getting is that he likes someone who doesn't like him back.

He has told me that his mates think that I'm the best looking girl he has ever been seen with, which believe me is quite a compliment.

The problem is I actually quite like him now. Is it worth it though?

Friends have said if he keeps getting to know me it will change things.

The last thing I need is to get hurt.

I've been here before. I got hurt as she ended up mucking me about, changing her mind every other week.

I partly blame myself as I should've walked to begin with, but I've never been one for having regrets.

If you think he's worth it, give it a shot, but like my situation - it doesn't always work out the way you want so just be warned.

Be prepared for the worst, dont expect everything to go as you want, but if you think this guy is worth then go for it! You will regret not going for it!

To be honest, a lot worse has happened to me over the years so I don't think this would hit the surface! :p:

We just got on so well. He told me he still wanted to get to know me.

I suppose even if nothing develops I will always have a friend in him.

He did tell me last night though that he needs to sort his life out...
ive been in this situation before.....more than once actually! once it worked out the way i wished it to...we ended up together & bein together for 9 months! the other time i fell for him and ended up seriously likin him.....but he just ended up stringing me along & disapointing & hurtin me as he said he liked me but was not ready to be with me. :eek:
my advice would be jus to keep things casual with him and still be friends and hopefully over time he will start to really like u and want to take things further. xx

Thankyou.

I intend to be friends with him. I think right now he is feeling down about a lot of stuff and I don't want to interfere in his life.

Told him we should meet up one night to cheer each other up (I have a lot of family stuff going on at the minute) and he agreed.

I will just try and not get too involved. From what I can tell he doesn't appear to be a jerk, and I'm getting better at judging people now through many bad experiences!

Hope it does go my way.
