But, how can I keep him interested? Yesterday I had barely anything to say, I was just so nervous.. I explained that to him though, and he’s okay with that, he said he enjoyed the day anyway.. But I don’t wanna have to ALWAYS have nothing to say! I REALLY like this guy.

Hahaha it’ll get easier, love. Promise. The more comfortable you two get with each other the easier conversation will be. Like most things in life, it just takes time.

If he’s the right guy, it will last. You have to relax, the best thing you can do is not be nervous. If he can’t figure out you’re great, he’s not worth it trust me.

I’m getting the impression that he’s not really into us to be honest though.. If he’s on msn, I have to talk to him first.. I’m always the one who texts first.. But when we’re in person, he takes the initiative, and makes everything seem perfect.. It’s oh so confusing..

Should I wait for him to text me first?

You have to go with your gut feeling on this one. If deep down you believe he’s not really into you, then just hang out with him casually or end it all together. Do not be with a guy who’s not into just for the sake of not being alone that will only make you unhappy in the end. As for the texting, every relationship is 50/50. You can text him something friendly, casual, if you want. The next time the ball should be in his court.

Sorry, there is no answer that will make you feel better. I have been where you are hundreds of times and it sucks. Just take it one day at a time and stay busy. It could help keep your mind off of him. You do not want him to be your life, you want him to be a part of your life.

Hmmmm…

Things are good again now, I talked to him about it.. I still have to take the initiative like.. And text him first etc, but he’s being nice again now..

I have one hell of a green eyed monster though, every girl that he talks to is SOOO much better than me, imo. But hopefully that feeling will banish.

Gurl don’t think that any girl is better than you bc she’s not… obviously if she was better he would be with her & not you… I have the same feeling sometimes with my bf but then I just think hmm he’s with me so w/e… I think sometimes we girls think to much when it comes to relationships && really we just need to chill & let time take its coursee :))
