How can I tell him I want more?

Sep 07, 2016

I really like him and can't stop thinking/hoping that this will turn into more.

I recently got back in touch with a guy from school; I've not seen him in 19 years. We went out last week and got on like a house on fire. He had his arm around me some of the night and even held my hand but that's all we did. We had so much fun and the next day he even came back to mine to help me fix my car. 

He made it clear he was happy being single and is not ready for a relationship. He asked me what I wanted and I said I don't need any more complications as the past 10 months have been hell for me in every aspect of my life. 

He then asked me out again and has messaged me regularly before we go out next week. However there have been some flirty texts going on between us such as him wanting a kissing competition etc. 

My friend also interfered and asked him what his intentions are with me and he basically made it clear he doesn't know me yet as last time we saw each other we were 16. He also said to my friend he doesn't know if I want him anyway as I know what he is like (he loves his single life). 

I really like him and can't stop thinking/hoping that this will turn into more. I panic in case he is going to cancel next week but he has made me laugh and we have the same personality. We have so much in common but I just don't know how to deal with this. I'm scared I'm going to get hurt but equally want more than just friendship. I panic when I haven't heard from him for a while and hate feeling like this over a man...I just can't stop thinking about him.
