Sorry to hear that kiddo. Don't let it drive you to crazy. I gotta agree with the anon. Definitely be there as a friend for him, but if he is not in the right place for a relationship, don't force it on him or more importantly yourself.

Generally speaking, we Daves are pure awesome, and you can't go wrong hooking up with one of us. However, a Dave does go bad every once in a rare while.

I'm not in your situation and have never met this guy, but it sounds like he's yanking you around. Tread very carefully. Or better yet, the next time he wants to try, beat him to the punch and tell him YOU don't think it will work out, and you're tired of having your guts kicked out. Let him see how it feels for once.

If he's yanking you around, he'll go off and never bother you again. If he truly wants to be with you, however, this may make him wake up and smell the friggin' coffee.

I'm just sayin' ...

Aww man. Dude that sucks, but at least he's taken his time and (it seems) trying to keep from hurting you.

Good luck, if that helps at all...
