Last month I was working out at the gym and I ran into someone I knew from elementary school through high school. All though we never hung out during school we were all ways nice to each other.
Well he asked me for my number that day so we could hang out. I thought was to keep in touch but he started texting me right after. Turns out we both liked each other in high school. We have been talking to each other everyday. Well, it has been a month in a half now and I made the mistake of sleeping with him before he taking me out on a date.
You see he works nights and he only gets one day off. I haven’t seen him that much and when I do I notice he is really tired. He does take care of his mother. He has gone to the bar with his friends on his day off but only for a few hours. But hasn’t taken me out. He does’t call but only texts me, but I also like to text him too.I all ready address the issue about him not taking me out, he states it because of his schedule and I shouldn’t take it personal. As soon as we started to be together, I notice he is trying to get his life together and is looking for a better job and one during the day so he can do stuff with people.
I know I made two mistakes with sleeping with him and the texting. I know it is fairly new and I do feel a deep connection with him. We are both not ready to get married and like to have our fun. I know every relationship is different and has their issues. I asked my sister for advice but she thinks that things should have moved faster and that he should had all ready introduce me to his friends all ready if he into me.
I don’t want to get hurt again by a guy who is just going to play with my emotions and then get rid of me when they are done. I know him for 13 years and I still want to be able to talk to him if everything doesn’t turn out right. The questions are: Is this a bad start with someone? and should I dump him before it gets bad?
