I met this guy almost a year ago while I was with my ex who cheated on me. This new guy was a friend of my ex and I ended up giving him relationship advice. We've talked and run into each other multiple times since and a few days ago we got into a situationship. We kissed and totally clicked. I really think we'd be a great match we just fit so well together.
But he had a recent heartbreak and today when I asked him about our future he said he feels unable to love because everyone has messed him up. I'm pretty sure he likes me but I get it I almost ended up like that too. We've had similar experiences with love. He told me that if he doesn't heal he'll just push me away. I suggested that he tell me whenever things feel like too much so I can stop and not cross his boundaries which would hopefully lessen the chance of him pushing me away.
I'd wait for him as long as he needs. I really really want this to work out because he might be everything I've been looking for. He's a super busy guy though he's still in school works and does the gym kickboxing and volleyball. I admire him so much.
He also said it's not even a guarantee that he'll ever love me and I'm not sure how to take that but I'm really hoping he will fall in love with me. I know it's not a rejection tactic because I talked to one of his closest friends and he gave me some details. I'm willing to do anything for this man.

this feels like when i kept building a story in my head about us while he kept reminding me he wasn’t ready. i wanted to hear the yes and skipped over the no.
in the end don’t for to long to get a answer. it hurts to wait.
i remember wanting to wait for someone who felt broken too. i thought if i was patient enough it would turn into something real. my heart was so full of hope i couldn’t see how tired it made me.
i was in that same spot once hanging on every word like maybe he’d change his mind if i proved myself. i ignored the part where he flat out said he couldn’t love me. it messed me up worse than my ex did.
