Am I in over my head?
This guy and I were "hanging out" for over 10 months, we weren't dating and weren't exclusive. However, one night he got very intoxicated and slept with my friend. I wasn't too hurt, it was just my pride that was bruised, however I decided that we couldn't "hang out" any more. He's been texting me since it happened 5 months ago. He has apologized many times, and has done quite a lot of sucking up. He wants to not only "hang out" but really date. He said he wants nothing more than to be back in my good graces.

My friend (the one who slept with him) says that I shouldn't forgive him, and that I shouldn't even give him the time of day. I'm not sure what to do. My pride tells me I shouldn't, however he makes me laugh, and Gets me, like no other guy has in a while.

Please help get a better view, or a more focused view on this situation.


When is a good time forgive and when is it unforgivable?
I have just finished my first term of college. About 2 months ago, I developed a weird sleeping pattern. My roommate is gone at her boyfriend's most nights, and when she's gone I found myself awake at 4 or 5 in the morning, despite having 8 o'clock classes. When I did sleep, I'd wake up in sweat and panicking. The nights my roommate was there, I was able to fall asleep around 1 or so but she'd tell me that I'd wake her up by screaming "don't" or "no" in my sleep. She also told me that I rolled around and moaned a lot. I'd be out at parties Thurs - Sat night and would be out till 3 or 4 but wouldn't always come home alone, if I even came home. Those nights I was able to get about 5 hours of sleep, only because of being with someone and being intoxicated. I would often sleep in class or crash at my computer in the afternoon. Sleeping only became worse about a month ago when I ruptured my achilles tendon. With the pain and the cast, sleeping became almost impossible. The pain meds would cause me to pass out, but I would still wake up panicked and drenched in swaet. Lately, I haven't been able to get any sleep. I'll lie in bed all night, and am only able to sleep when the suns out. I often sleep in the afternoon (2-3 hours), but I can't at night. With the new term starting soon, I need to be able to sleep at night.
What's going on? Why can't I sleep at night? Why do I wake up panicked and drenched in sweat? Why can't I sleep alone? I either need to be with someone or be texting someone while I fall asleep to get sleep. How can I fix this? Also, how can I make sleeping with my cast on easier?
I can't go off of 3 hours of sleep any more, I'm starting to look awful.


I need advice! Help!?
I feel ridiculous posting this since I kinda already know the answers to my own questions, but I'm asking for advice because I don't like the conclusions I've come to. FYI I'm a freshman in college.

The first day we met, I noticed him, but not in the "OMG I MUST DATE HIM!" typical teenage way when you see an attractive boy, I just thought he looked like someone I'd be friends with. Well the next day I hung out with him in a group with 3 of our mutual friends. We immediately felt like best friends, it was so weird! We ended up going on a date a week later. It was the best date I've ever been on. I've never felt so comfortable with someone so quickly. I was attracted to him too, and wanted to be much more than friends. We started spending almost every single day together. Within a matter of weeks he was sleeping over 3 or more times a week and we went to parties and slept over with eachother every weekend. Every day I felt like I was just falling in love with him more and more. I've never felt that way before. I actually could forsee myself having a very serious relationship with him in the future, perhaps even marriage. This freaked me out because I've never contemplated marriage with anyone in my life. We decided to be exclusive, but not with the titles because he said he was scared about how fast we were moving and how much he already cared about me. He also warned me that for some reason he always hurts the people he cares about most. And he pushes them away again and again, and he was scared to get even closer to me because he didn't want to end up hurting me. And that the idea of losing me because of him hurting me would be the worst thing ever. I told him that he didn't have to worry, because I was scared too. And that I would wait for him to be ready for a real relationship when he thought he could handle it, since it was quite a rushed relationship.

Well we had lots of talks about our feelings and our relationship over the next couple of weeks, and it was rough on me because some days he would seem so distant. And he said it was just that he was overthinking everything, and making things seem more difficult than they had to be. He kept apologizing and he said he overthinks things a lot and thats why he pushes people away. I know it sounds like he just made excuses for me but really he was just explaining himself to me because I kept questioning what was wrong. But most of the days, he was the same guy I had been hanging out with/dating for 2 months. We were so happy together. Seriously, we couldn't stop smiling even when we just thought about each other. It was the most intense happiness.

So because of the "bad days" where he barely talked to me, I confronted him and told him it was making me feel bad having him be so wishy washy and back and forth about our relationship. He said he was sorry and he further explained why he pushes everyone who cares about him away and he told me I deserved better, and that if I needed or wanted to, that I didn't have to be exclusive with him anymore because he didn't want to hold me back from being with someone that was good enough for me. Since I felt (and still feel) that he is perfect for me, I told him I was fine being with him. One night he even told me that sometimes he wished that we had met during our later years of college because then he would be more grounded in his life and he wouldn't have to wonder if he was "settling down" too soon and getting too serious when he couldn't handle it.

One night I got quite drunk and I called him and questioned why he didn't care enough to commit to me and he told me that maybe we should just stop hanging out because it was making all of this too confusing. We were trying to have a relationship, without really having one and that wasn't fair to me. I told him we could be friends and he said that we couldn't that it would be too hard for him to be around me and not be closer with me. That every time he sees me, he just wants to hold me tight and make me feel special, and that's not really the way he treats his "girl friends". I got angry at this, seeing as he was basically saying that he was going to cut me out of his life for a while. And I told him that if I couldn't hang out with him, then we couldn't speak to each other at all anymore. And that I hated him and wished I had never met him. Of course this upset him but because I was very intoxicated, I simply hung up the phone when he tried to reason with me. When I sobered up I tried to apologize and he seemed to accept it. But said that maybe it was for the best that we not talk anymore for a little while. I agreed and didn't contact him during the next week. The following weekend I got drunk once again and started texting him. When he didn't respond I called him a few times. I got very upset and left a message complaining to him about the situation. This was apparently the final blow because he got extremely annoyed with me.

I IM'd him a few days later I IM'd him a few days later to apologize for the way I had acted the previous weekend and he told me to leave him alone. That he didn't want apologies, that he was done with all of this. He said he was sorry that he was doing this to me but he just wished I would stop contacting him and just let him become a distant memory.

Now I don't know what to do. I'm going to stop contacting him for a month or so, but is there a point when I should try to talk to him again? Or should I let him decide when to talk to me again. Do you think I should get back together with him if he later decides he is ready for that, and I still have these same feelings for him? It's been a few weeks since it happened and I just can't get over how happy he made me and how sad I am without him in my life already. Do you think he is just pushing me away because that's what he always does? Or does he REALLY not want me in his life anymore?

So...Was it love? And what are your thoughts on the above questions?


Was it love? And what should I do now?
Ok, so I wanna thank anyone who takes the time to read and respond to this :)
Basically, there's this guy that's 19, and I'm 16, and I really really like him. It's actually kind of crazy. I know that I'm physically attracted to him,but I know its also more than that, because every time I'm around him or thinking about him I can't help but smile and feel all warm and fuzzy :)

Anyways, we met this summer, and then we were partying together and we were both 'intoxicated' and ended up making out and more...he told me he wished I was older so that it would be allowed. So its obvious that he wanted in my pants... He told me a lot about himself and his past relationships and how he wished he could be with me.
Also, we hung out quite a few times after that and he was always really sweet, giving me looks, trying to be as close as he could, and everything like that.
But then I left for a few weeks, and while I was gone two of my friends were at his house and he came out and started talking about how he missed me and stuff.
Ok, but then I found out that another time he fingered one of my friends when he was drunk, so it made me wonder if he just gets like that? or if he thought she was me, cause i had been there right before it happened? and then there's the whole issue with the fact that he said he liked me, but hasn't really been talking to me much recently.

so, i've been texting him and trying to hang out and figure out how he really feels. like, if it was a one-time thing, or he actually likes me, or he just wants me for sex?
i really can't tell because I don't know him very well. And then a little bit ago, after I'd been texting him with no real results, he texts and asks me if I wanna hang out, but I didn't get it until a day later, and then he never replies when I tell him what happened.

So, I'm really confused, I think I really like him, I thought he liked me but now I can't tell. And since he's gotten in trouble for being with this younger girl in the past, is that the only reason he's not doing anything?

Wow, I need help...
Thanks a lot...that's gonna be hard to do, but I'll give it a try :)


Question about this guy...yeah, another 'does he like me?'?
He always listens to me and remenbers everything that we have done togheter, he has said that he wants a girl like me as a girlfriend (i have a guy), we have been "close" a few times, he has called me while intoxicated said he loves me and he doesnt mind me texting him at all hours of the night, i know for a fact he doesnt do this with other girls that are in our circle of friends.
