Should i forget about him?

I have been single for around two years now and have dated a few guys without sucess of finding someone who I would want a relationship with. However, a couple of months back I met someone unexpectedly. He approached me and then he just blew me away. We seem to connect in every sense of the word and I havent felt like this for a long time. We held hands, been intimate, spoke about everything, shared laughs and his flatmates even told me that he had spoken about me to them saying how happy he was to have found me. Then he went cold and didnt call and I was wondering what happened. After messaging him he told me straight up that even though he thinks Im amazing (cliche), but there is someone else on his mind that he cant shake and he needs to be alone. I was disapointed but didnt reply and just got on with my life. However, last weekend I was out and I bumped into him. Even though I was reserved he seemed so happy to see me and was about to go home but decided to come me and go to a club. At the club, I decided to bring up the issue about the message and we went to sit down to talk. He said sorry for any hurt feeling I had then told me that he really likes me and thinks he found the perfect girl in me for him but he had been with his ex for 5 years, spent everyday together then had a messy bust up in which he didnt talk to her for three months so hes enjoying his space and finding out about himself. He looked pretty wounded about it and I reassured him that its all good with me and him and spent the rest of the night in an embrace and all those feelings came flooding back. He told me that it felt like we were the only ones in the room and I could have just melted at that point. He walked me to the taxi and we said our goodbyes and he told me to text him to let him know I got home safe which I did then he text back saying how lovely it was to meet me that night and we both in a round about way dropped hints that we would see each other again. Now I am confused and a bit angry at myself for feeling so much for him. I really like this guy and respect all what he told me but I know theres something there. Ive arranged a date with another guy to take my mind off it and I feel awful now. Should I be patient, wait and hope that something happens when hes ready or should I forget about him and find someone else who I know won't make me feel like this guy?

No no dont give up he sounds amazing!!!!

I wont!

Hey Bella, thankyou for your advice. after much thought (and pining) Iv'e decided to wait for him and not look for anyone else right now. I really like him, he's always in my head and it just feels right when were together so Im gonna take a chance I have his number, vice versa so the only thing I can do now is wait for him or wait a few coupla weeks and give him a text perhaps...here's hoping!

Il keep you posted

xx
