Ok, so I'm going nuts here. I don't know if I'm just too naive, or sweet, or nice or gutless..........Here's a brief summary.
LAST SPRING> Meet boy. Start talking to Boy. Start being friends with boy. Start liking boy. Talk more with boy. get to know boy. Boy starts dancing with me out of the middle of nowhere at a Phi Kapp Party (at this time, boy was a GDI). boy begins being flirtatious (cuddling, hugging, doing that THING that you boys do that drives me absolutely nuts (in a good way) where you stand behind us just close enough that we can sense you there, but you don't actually touch us......anyways.......i found out boy worked at boy scout camp during the summer and i worked at girl scout camp during the summer and so we weren't going to see each other (we weren't likely to anyways, being as he's an out of towner, but making it for certian that we wouldn't see each other). boy tells me how much he's going to miss me and asks for my camp address to write me. Boy leaves. Ims me immediatly when he sees me on (within 15 seconds)asking how i am and whats going on and how much he misses me.
SUMMER CAMP> I wrote him a letter, no return. I get home. He gets home. He ims me and tells me he can't wait to see me when he gets back to town.
THIS FALL> sees me the day he gets back, grins ear to ear, hugs me so tight i think i'm going to die. Snuggle. Cuddle. Arms around my waist from the back, snuggle into my neck, rocks me back and forth, hand holding (occasionally) Major standing behind--possessive body language.
************INSERT COMPLICATIONS******************
Last spring, we were talking, he said he really liked me but he wanted to take a year off from being in relationships so that he could have some him time. It'd be different if he was macking on other chicks and telling me he wanted to be alone. He macks on no other girls. I told him that i liked him. He apologized, said he couldn't do anything then. He came back from this summer, I was kind of curious if said year was over. I find out his ex tried to kill herself this summer while he was at camp and he felt bad because he thinks had he been there, he could have tried to stop her. Still says he can't be with anyone right now
**********RETURN TO THIS SPRING*************
I tell him we can't snuggle and cuddle and do that kind of things if he's not ready because it's confusing me. He says he understands. We stop for a week. He's back at it. He makes jokes about "spending some quality time alone together" I study sign and have taught him some and he had a deaf kid this summer at camp, so he learned some, so usually he signs it to me and grins. He tells my mom (when im on the phone with her) how beautiful I am and i said a friend of mine was so awesome and he says "if she's anything like you..." He gets a bid to SPE (which is awesome, because I love those guys...i've not met a SPE that I've not liked) He really wanted a bid and I was so excited for him when i heard. I waited on him to tell me (my Best friend is dating a brother and so that's how i heard after he got his bid) but he didnt mention anything for like 4 days. He finally did, i asked him what took him so long to tell me, he said he wanted it to be a suprise ::raises an eyebrow::
SO I'M really confused and I really REALLY like him and yeah. All of our friends have noticed the tension (even his roommate, and that says a lot, his roommates not so quick;-D )
Would I be too pushy to say something again? I mean he could be feeling really guilty about the ex, but he's sending out a LOT of mixed signals. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
