Aqua chasing me again, not sure the roller coaster is worth it

As many of you know, I was entangled (for lack of a better word) with an Aqua for about two months last fall. We had been friends for four years prior to that. After he left where I live to go back to where he lives (across the country), he indicated he wanted to pursue a romantic connection. Then a week later he started icing me out--VERY few texts, maybe a pair of calls, ZERO likes or comments on FB, and generally ignoring my existence. A month later he told me it was b/c of a conversation we had where I said we were together and he couldn't do this or that. That conversation never happened, but I chalked it up to bad memory at the time.

Almost three months have passed. My feelings diminished and I wanted to start seeing other people. I texted him a couple of weeks ago to confirm we were done because I didn't want to go out with someone else and possibly make him feel like he was being betrayed (he had never formally said we were done). He called, and I asked him about the icing out, the silence. He referred back to the imagined "commitment" conversation. I logically explained how I could prove that never happened and why I didn't want any kind of commitment. He believed me and actually said he effed up. I was floored.

Anyway, now he's chasing me again like he was in September; daily texts, FB contact every day, occasional calls, and sexting. How Aquas go from 60-0 then 0-60 in no time flat is mind boggling! I met a nice local guy last week and plan to go out with him. But you guys know--the pull of an Aqua is SO hard to resist. And of course, he tells me no two people on Earth were made so perfectly for each other as the two of us; the distance is the only obstacle. He REALLY wants to pursue a FWB thing, already planning to meet me in two places for my business trips. Not sure I can handle that emotionally.

I don't know that I can get back on this roller coaster. Women who love Aquas say it's SO worth it, and what he says is true--I've never found a more perfect match in every aspect of a man. The sex is freakin' mind blowing. I don't know that either one of us could find a better peer. HOWEVER, dealing with his Aqua "stuff" got really exhausting. My brain tells me to keep him as a good friend and meet up for fun weekends if we're both not seeing someone. But Libras are loathe to let go; and my heart (and girl parts) tell me to hang on...

Well Heart + lady parts versus brain, that's 2 against one.
