Folk You definitely need to open up and discuss this with him (or show him a letter that you can then discuss) because it's going to come between you if you don't. He doesn't understand your worries, you don't tell him your worries = stalemate. Fwiw I think it will bring you closer together, not further apart.
Jesy Agree with Dont, this bloke is a mindfuck. He ends it, then wants to be friends?! Who the fuck does he think he is, the arrogant little shit! Tell him to get to fuck! I tell you now, he doesn't want to be 'friends', he wants to have sex with you without the commitment, I guarantee it. It's too hard to stay 'just friends' with someone you have a lot of feelings for anyway. For a start, a part of you will always be thinking that if you hang around long enough, he'll realise he wants to be with you, which won't happen. Also, there's the chance you may end up in bed again, which isn't a good idea as you'll end up hurt. In addition to that, how will you feel when he starts dating someone else and you have to see them together/meet her, because you're 'friends'. I can't say this clearly enough but you need to delete, block and move on. Rip the plaster off quickly, otherwise the pain will last much, much longer.
Denton I second the brain wash! I need to get MCS out of my head. Might help if he stopped texting me
