Hey guys, I need your help again!
So despite all the advice I received a couple pages back about dropping the emotionally unavailable dude I've been "seeing" for over a year, I continued to do so anyway against better judgment. Even though he's made it clear that he doesn't want a relationship, we still enjoy each other's company... so I have the feeling that we're both using each other out of convenience.
I still beat myself up because I think I handled confronting him about our relationship improperly. I tried my hardest to avoid using the words "We have to talk..." or bringing up "the talk" while drunk and emotional, but I did both. It is also difficult to move on even though I have options (being single or pursuing this new guy I met recently) because I'm selfish/cowardly. I hate to see him go, but I'm also aware that I'm missing out by sticking around.
So I've been hanging out with this new guy (who I met, ironically enough, off the internets!), and I feel guilty about being attracted to him, since I'm still technically with the old guy. Also, it's a longshot to say that things would work out any differently with a new guy... should I even be considering it? Cheating is not an option for me EVER, even if the guy I'm seeing is a bum. A female friend of mine suggested that I go ahead and makeout with the new guy and ask questions later, but that doesn't sound like a fantastic idea to me...
. What's the advice for me, guys?
