    I have been hooking up with the same guy for a few months and I have developed a crush on him. I talked to him about it, and he said that he likes me too. However he told his ex-girlfriend that he “could” like me but doesn’t since we are spending our summers on opposite sides of the country and he doesn’t seem to be too upset that we won’t see each other for three months. These details have given me the suspicion that he doesn’t really “like” me.

    Our summer vacations began about two weeks ago and we haven’t really talked since then. We agreed to forget about each other over the summer and talk again in September. However, yesterday he texted me out of the blue and told me that I was wrong and that he really misses me. I responded that I missed him too but he never responded back after that. I asked him about it and he once again told me that he misses me. I told him that when he lies about things like that it upsets me, and he said that when I don’t believe that he cares about me, he gets upset as well.

    I’m not sure how he really feels about me and I don’t know what to do. Do you have any advice for me?

    Whatever is that he is thinking, changing his mind about, or figuring out, the bottom line is that the two of you are apart for the summer. I trust you’re in college and that you’ll see each other again in three months, but for now, there’s little chance of a date, let alone a relationship, over the summer.

    You’re trying to find some remnant of a relationship to cling to, so you’re stirring up trouble. My advice is to allow yourself to be sad that you’re not going to see him for the summer, and accept that the relationship is not solid enough to endure a summer where you both don’t date other people. This is the nature of college relationships. The summer is a time apart for many couples, and if you’ve only been “hooking up” for a few months before you separated, there isn’t enough there to give you relationship security.

    Stop worrying about what he’s thinking. You’re setting a trap for him and yourself by going there. Instead, try and have a great summer for yourself, and if you meet guys during the summer you are interested in dating, then go for it. But let go of the idea that your several month hook up from college is anything but a casual, on campus thing.

    I know this can be painful, but I trust you can work through this, knowing what I’ve told you is true.
