I like him but there's a past...

Well I should probably start at the beginning...

 

When I was in highschool, sophmore year-ish there was this kid that I really likeh; my mom worked with his step-mom who worked with this other lady who had a bf I worked with at a store that his father worked at and his grandfather owned... Yeah, it still confuses me sometimes. Anyway! I used to have classes with this kid and we had alot in common like art and music and we went to the movies once, I didn't know it was a date, I thought I was just on of the guys - I'm used to that and I'm good at it. Plus, he seemed to be doing fine with his occasional girlfriends so I was like yeah whatever, and treated him indifferently.

 

FYI, this was 4 years ago and now I'm going into my junior year of college. Well last summer I started talking to him again and we started just talking about music and art and college. Well, we got on the topic of dating and lack there of. He told me he used to like me a lot in highschool and that he was disappointed we, basically, never went out. I told him boys weren't my first obligation and that I never realized. So we started talking more, he implied that he was still interested but since I go to school 4 hours away that we would see when I came back home. Well shortly after we started talking again (he brought up all the things I had forgotten) and then he got a girlfriend, it kind of really hurt considering I had just opened up to him (something I'm not good at doing) finally, in response I have trust issues. Then he broke up with his gf and tried to start talking to me again, of all days on Valentine's Day [douche] but I never responded to him because I was angry. Then I saw him once Spring Break accidentally before I had to go back to school, and he acted friendly and seemed to be happy to see me, though I wasn't as thrilled to see him.

 

Well now I'm back home for the summer, with plenty of time on my hands and I've been contemplating the what ifs because I saw him but avoided the confrontation by running away - literally, lol funny story. Finally, with some advice from a friend who was with me through last summer's drama, I was told to talk to him just to see what happens. So I did because I'm curious, even if it means someone will get hurt, I'd like to find out. I started talking to him, he told me to make sure we hang out the next time I was in town. I told him I'd be here all summer and to give me a call and he asked for my number. We chatted for a couple of minutes and he had to leave. Well be a nosy one in the attempt to save my own skin I checked up on him on myspace because from what I remember he's prone to have alot of chick friends... Which I don't have a problem with but I'm not going to be one of his loyal fans (the oh-my-god-I-love-you-you're-so-cute-teehee girls, I don't roll like that).

 

Basically I just need any advice possible in this sticky situation. Should I believe him? Should I give him a chance now that I'm in town? Is he being truthful with me about the way he feels? I really just want to play it out to see what happens because I'll be gone in a couple months anyway. Like I said, any advice would be much appreciated. He makes me happy, but I don't know if he's for real.

Looks like he's a typical young, 'player' in development. He seems extremely self-absorbed, and self-centered without a care in the world for others. You seem like an intelligent woman, do yourself a favor and lose the curiosity, so you don't waste your time on this ******* and besides, it seems like the better half of you wants nothing to do with him. Trust me, go with your gut on this one!
