im having a hard time trying to kno what to believe.
they say to listen to your gut, but even my gut is confused.....

the aries i have been tlaking to and met said he realized that we cannot be together becuase we are btoh going thru our own personal battles........ he said he has nothing to offer me, and he would only bring me down.

he said he needs someone strong enuff to hold her own around him, and in the position im in wont be good.

he hasnt been calling me since ive met him, but if i call him he will talk, and when i asked to go see him he said he doesnt think its a good idea, he's going thru some sort of depression and he doesnt think anyone should be around him....

( he really does live in ruff conditions, so i kno hes not lying about that )

i just want to be there for him, and at the same time dont want to make him feel like i pity him, i just enjoy his company, but i cant help but feel maybe he is just trying to politely say hes not interested in me, and hoping i get the hint....and leave him alone.... but when i call he will say... i was thinking about callin u last night , i needed someone to talk to , but it wouldve been like 4 in the morning so i didnt... or i still think about you, or i was going to text u to see how u were...



lol please help 😢

He truly feels he wants to work on himself and be in a different relationship status. Yes in a way he is trying to let you down easy, but not because he is saying you aren't good enough, just that he can't be the right kind of happy or excited about being in a relationship with you, with all that goes into a relationship.

He could go along with the motions and pretend to be in the relationship, but that would be lying to himself and having you put your life into a doomed relationship. He is technically looking out for both of you.

When I say I am not ready for a relationship or that I am not gonna be able to go forward with us, I am worried that the other person won't understand and become out of sorts by the rejection, and take it as rejection and so I have to almost go through all these extra measures to say, "this isn't going to happen".

Of course I can do with the companionship and talking and all the other stuff, but relationships can either seem promising or doomed (at least to me) and sounds like he seems to think he won't be a able to stick it through with you.

I don't look too far ahead, and let my heart guide me on where to start a dating scenario or start of a relationship. Once the truths start coming into view, all these things I didn't want to think about at first naturally come out and then after examining them, if they don't seem good for us both then yeah I break it off.

Mind you, we all have to be able to keep swimming and and keep going on dates and exploring other relationships when we are in the dating scene. Once we find an option, then yes we all have to explore it to see how far it will go, but don't stop thinking it can happen out in the wild for you one day just because the person you like doesn't want to be in a relationship.
