I have been talking and hanging out with this guys i use to date in high school when we broke up it’s because I was in such a really bad time in my life I was struggling with my parents getting a divorce and me hating myself so much I was so depressed and I told him, I needed space to build myself up to a regular functioning human again after all the issues, 5 years later I met him again on this big group chat on insta mutual friends put us on and everything just clicked like we where meant to be together again this was such a blessing I felt like god was giving me signs, he’s so sweet and gentle and so kind to me and I’m so grateful he still sees me the same as he once did, we hung out a couple of times he even kissed me and told me he’s in love with me but I’m so confused about what are we so I finally built up the courage to ask him, he didn’t seem the answer the question but going around it, he said his last girlfriend traumatized him and he felt damaged, I told him I can wait for him and be there for him, I’m very understanding and I am here for him 100% but I’m still sad deep down is it ok to feel sad? Am I rushing? Should I wait until he’s ready to bring it up? I don’t wanna pressure him at all I’ve just been thinking about it so much lately, I’m sorry I just wanted to vent
