basically im completely in love with a guy who ive been friends with for a while, but who ive had casual "relations" with every time i see him. We fell out a while back because he started freaking out because he thought i was starting to fall for him and i had no idea what the problem was so we didnt speak for a few days. then he got back into contact with me and we started texting again.
On christmas day he rang me and said that the reason he had acted like that was because he is so scared of getting hurt again (a 5 year relationship with someone he lived with ended a couple years ago) but that he likes me so much he just doesnt feel able to have a relationship at the minute.
Since then, he's been at my house everyother night, we do have sex but not every time we watch dvds and mess around and go to sleep every night cuddling.
Last week he came to mine because he was ill and wanted me to look after him and the next day he went to the doctors and phoned me afterwards and said he was going to see a therapist about all the stuff he cant get out of his head and that he was getting antidepressants to try and help him which i think is amazing that hes doing something about this problem.
On friday night, i had a lot of texts from him when he was drunk saying he misses me when we arent together and one saying he loves me. I havent mentioned this to him, but he spent all day yesterday and night with me and my son and he basically said that he wants us to be friends and not sleep together anymore with the place his head is in. i asked him if it would be different if he was ready for a relationship would it be with me and he said he couldnt answer it but that the problem isnt me.
I feel so confused about everything i just dont know how to deal with the situation :-(
